Samsung Galaxy Axiom launches on US Cellular, has S3 Mini design with LTE for $80

Samsung Galaxy Axiom is the latest Android phone to launch on U.S. Cellular, and although it bears a distinct resemblance to the Galaxy S3 Mini, there are some subtle alterations internally.

Looking for some budget 4G Android thrills? U.S. Cellular has announced a phone which could be of interest: The Samsung Galaxy Axiom. Leaked earlier this month, the new Galaxy device has now been made official by the network, although it may look familiar to mobile fans with an eye for design.

Here’s what it’s all about. The Galaxy Axiom has a 4-inch display with a 480 x 800 pixel resolution, and it runs Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) – not the very latest version, but still acceptable enough. Inside is a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, while on the outside is a 5-megapixel primary camera and a 1.3-megapixel secondary video-call lens too.

There’s 4GB of storage memory built-in and a microSD card slot to boost this by up to 32GB, plus a variety of other features such as NFC support, a 2100mAh battery, DLNA and Wi-Fi, plus the aforementioned 4G LTE connectivity. Some of Samsung’s software goodies are present, with U.S. Cellular specifically mentioning S Beam and S Voice. Google Wallet is also standard, too.

If you’re looking at the Axiom and thinking, “My, you look familiar,” it’s because the phone is visually almost identical to the recently launched Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini. However, while it may look the same, the Axiom’s spec is slightly different. It’s swings and roundabouts too, as the S3 Mini has Android 4.1 Jelly Bean installed, plus the option of 8GB or 16GB of built-in storage, but lacks 4G LTE connectivity.

The processor inside the S3 Mini is a dual-core, 1GHz ST Ericsson NovaThor chip, but the Axiom has been given a 1.2GHz processor, which according to GSMArena is a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4. It probably won’t make much difference, but it’s worth knowing.

U.S. Cellular has priced the Galaxy Axiom at $80 with a two-year contract, or for those wishing to avoid such a lengthy commitment, it’s available SIM-free for $400, and is ready and waiting for you on the network’s website now.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Release Date

The Galaxy Note 2 release date is set to October 2012 and it will feature slightly larger display 5.5-inch display and dual-core Exynos 5250 processor.

It’s been over half a year since the Galaxy Note was released and over 7 million units are sold worldwide and Samsung plans to sell around 10 million Galaxy Notes. Due to its incredible success Samsung has started to work on its successor the Galaxy Note 2.

Information about upcoming Galaxy Note 2 is limited but we know its name and when it will be released but the rest is mystery. We know that the Galaxy Note 2 will be inspired from the Galaxy S3 so it will look similar and feature the same technologies and services like S Beam, S Voice, NFC, SmartStay and others.

It is reported that the Galaxy Note will have slightly larger 5.5-inch display with WSXGA+ (1680×1050) and 360 pixel density. Why no Full HD resolution? Human eye can’t perceive separate pixels if the pixel density is over 300 ppi, it means that going above it is pointless. The Galaxy Note 2 will feature Super AMOLED (non-Plus) display from PenTile matrix family because these displays last longer and are more power efficient that true RGB AMOLED Plus displays.

Before the Galaxy S3 was announced, there were rumors that it will have the Exynos 5250 processor which is built on latest ARM Cortex-A15 CPU processor architecture but that didn’t turn out to be true. Samsung has Exynos 5250 processor on its arsenal and it would be logical to use it for the Galaxy Note 2 due to its performance and power efficiency.

The Galaxy Note 2 will have 8-megapixel camera with improved lens and image sensor for better images and videos. RAM will be increased to 1.5 GB and the 4G LTE connection will come by default for international version.

The Galaxy Note 2 design will be similar to its smaller bother, the Galaxy S3 and above you can see an image to get an idea how it will look like. Last two devices, the Galaxy S3 and Focus 2 clearly shows where Samsung is going with its industrial design.

The Galaxy Note 2 release date is scheduled for October 2012

The release date of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is not yet confirmed and could be inaccurate as we are few months away from its debut. Once we will know more about the Galaxy Note 2 and its release date we will let you know so consider subscribing to our Facebook or Google+ page to find out more.
