Does that look like a 4" screen? I also hope the super amoled isn't a pentile display.

[EXCLUSIVE] More Pictures of the Galaxy S Pro

14 June 2010 by David Junior

Well, it’s safe to say that the cat is out of the bag. And it brought a few other kitties with it. Not only will the Galaxy S Pro release on Sprint soon, the Galaxy S be joining it. The tipster didn’t mention if the Galaxy S was a 4G phone as well but I suspect that it is. Oh and here are a few more pictures of the Pro after the break.

Let’s start off with a slight correction, in my initial post I said the Galaxy S Pro has a 4 row keyboard. Guess I was too excited to count because it has a 5 row keyboard and it looks great. This handset will ship with Android 2.1 and TouchWiz 3.0. It has a 5 MP camera with LED flash, yes I said it, it has an LED flash which is absent from the Galaxy S.

If you were skeptical about the inclusion of the LED flash and the 4G capabilities, I’m sure the picture above has successfully put those doubts to rest. Although, the tipster didn’t have an official spec sheet, he did say that this shares all the specs as the Galaxy S but has a keyboard. He’s been testing it and it’s just as fast as the Galaxy S. I would think that it’s safe to say that this has the same 1GHZ processor and 512 RAM and ROM as the S. The “hummingbird” GPU should be included as well. Stay tuned for some confirmed specs whenever they come in. Sprint might as well announce these now, the secret is out.

Why is pentile bad? I'm also concerned about the Touch Wiz UI and that first looks at the Galaxy S report cheap materials. And I'm curious as to how think the phone will be.

There is a lot to like about this, though, especially if it comes with Froyo.

You can disable the Touchwiz UI...also from the taken apart of the original Galaxy S, the inside seemed very modular..

It looks very nice, I am just not a fan of Samsung phones...Been burnt a couple of times. I do like that Sprint is going to be throwing out some good looking phones that can compete with other carriers.

didn't want to link to another forum but this guy explains it pretty well,

That being said, no one has really complained about the galaxy S display so far (it's out overseas). it could be that samsung didn't use a pentile matrix or they fixed whatever problem the early pentile matrix displays had.

here is engadget previewing the non pro version of the phone w/ video,

the Galaxy S Pro though has things like Flash for camera..

to sum it up Galaxy S beats EVO in everything except camera which front is VGA while EVO is 1.3mp and back is 5mp while EVO is 8..otherwise Galaxy S wins 2x fold in many other specs
