Tmobile 4G + Exynos 4210 (not the homo snapdragon att processor @@)
i will gladly crap my pants if this is true...
Lol, you do realize that exynos does not support AWS? This will have the same snapdragon as AT&T.
No need to crap my pants then

I've heard about the new Vibrant 4G, and also the new Galaxy S2. My T-Mobile rep said the new Vibrant 4G was a dual core phone. But everywhere I've looked says its not. However I've heard the GS2 IS a dual core phone. So, are they two different phones? Can anyone help clear this up? Also, anyone know approx. release dates?
I won't be the only one to tell you this but people at T-Mobile don't have a clue! The Vibrant 4G is called the Galaxy S 4G and comes out on Feb 23. It has a 1GHz Hummingbird processor. Not dule-core. The Samsung Galaxy S II has the dule-core processor but will not even be released in the US until later this year.

Thanks for clearing that up! So, I'm guessing if I want to go dual core anytime soon, I'm just going to have to go with the LG Optimus 2X in early March.
Yep u r correct... the Gallaxy S II is one hell of a phone though. Google it and see if you think it is worth the wait.

Here is the Galaxy S II review on Engadget. Looks Nice!

But it's still Samsung. Don't give them any more money. They'll screw that one up like they have the SGS line, with poor support.

I resent that, but truth being told some of us have no clue, we're just people working a job and are trained to use tools to resolve issues. Not all of are all into phones to the extent on this site, truth be told only a handful of us root our phones. Guess who Vibrant users come see. Yeah, it sucks sometimes, but it is what it is.
So, can anyone tell me how significant an upgrade the SGS3 will be over the SGS2 HD LTE? North American version
-Both are dual core - granted the SGS3 has a new version, supposedly better?
-SGS3 - slightly larger screen - not necessarily a win
-both have pentile Super Amoled HD screens
Is this going to feel like a large upgrade?

He stated he is talking about the North America version. Which it seems will have the dual core S4 instead of the Exynos so it can support LTE

Exactly. GS3 appears to be an S4 processor vs. the GS2 running the S3. How much difference is this going to make?
Also the s voice feature...i assume it will eventually make its way to the GS2s eh?

You have the link to that because everywhere else is reporting differently? Although most are saying it "may not" have the quad core chip. I have seen a lot more speculation that it will have a dual core chip than I have seen that it will be quad core. I guess we really wont know for sure until it's released state side.

I think it would make a pretty big difference considering how much better the S4 chip is over the older snapdragon chip. Although if it does have a dual core in the US I will most likely but the intl version. On HSPA+ in NYC I can get up to 10mbps and usually around 4-7mbps on average which is plenty fast for what I need. I'm on wifi most of the time at home, work and school anyway. Plus I dont have a grandfathered unlimited data package and LTE would burn though my 4gb of data faster. This month I actually went over 4gb for the first time on HSPA+
IF these are your choices, which would your pick?
Int'l quad-core exynos running on 4g?
USA krait dual-core running on 4g?
USA HTC X ONE Krait dual-core running on 4g(for better looks with same SOC as sgs3)?
Other phone?
International quad core runs on HSPA network not 4g lte.

Yup it should have been, Sammy fakked that one up.
As much as I would like the internation version, and can (I just sold two HOX for total of $1060.00 on craigslist, AT&T shipped me 2 HOX for 49.99 each lol), you can't beat 50down/20up on LTE with AT&T.
Reason is, t mobile won't be getting the quad core version. I have two new HTC one s's and I'm thinking of trading them both for an international gs3. Or, I'm going to sell them both. I have an offer from a salesman to buy the international gs3 for $700 even. What do you guys think I should do?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
I believe it's like the One X. Yes, it will work but you'll be limited to 3G speeds (also limited to 1GB ram instead of 2GB in the US version).
The RAM thing i think makes it worth it to just go with the US version. The S4 handles vet nicely, and the majority of apps don't bother to take advantage of quad core anyway, so to me the US for once gets the better end of the stick with regard to the GS3.

That is incorrect. For a phone to be able to utilize T-Mobile 3G/4G, it must support the both 1700 and 2100 frequencies. While the international S3 does support the 2100 band, it doesn't support the 1700 band. That is the entire reason Samsung is making a specific T-Mobile S3.
The international S3 will work with T-Mobile, but only at 2G speeds.

It will be 2G only, for now. Once T-Mobile has 1900 3G up and running it will be 3G again, which should be done for all major markets by the end of the year.
On another not. I've seen the TMOUS SGSIII in action and trust me, you don't need the quad core. 2GB of RAM with dual core is WAY better than 1GB of RAM with quad core.
EDIT: One more thing, the EU version is limited to 21Mbps while the TMOUS will be 42Mbps, twice the data rate.
Yes I agree if I had my choice I would get tha quad 4 with 2 gigs ram but since it dosnt come that way more ram is more noticeable and quad core is nice but really what are you doing with it your running linux.

Get the tmobile version. You wont notice the cpu difference at all. and never trade two htc one s for one sgs3 lol thats crazy.
Hell no...two phones that just came out for one phone..don't do it..sell them separately. Higher cash value,buy s3 and have extra cash..lol

Yea, I figured trading two for one might be a little crazy. It sucks that I got this phone weeks before the gs3 hits shelves. I guess we shall see how awesome the gs3 is.

Well, it happen. I sold my HTC one s and now I wait for the SGS3 in three days.

i CHECKED the internet and it doesn't say anything about 4G international, but then again if i asked your opinion about int. vs north america and you tell me to google....

No, the international version (GT-I9300) does not support 4G, that's exactly why North America has its own versions (there are also some North American versions without 4G too, if I am correct).
The N.A. versions have 2 GB of RAM and a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor (Qualcomm Snapdragon S4), while the international version have 1 GB of RAM and a 1.4 GHZ quad-core processor (Samsung Exynos 4 Quad). In addition, the maximum up and down speeds on mobile networks are obviously quite a bit higher for 4G LTE than international, but if you, like I, mostly use wifi networks, international should be fine to (and I can say from my own experience that the mobile network speeds on the international version ain't that bad either).
You will have to make up your mind yourself, though, as I think in the end, it just comes down to personal preference. I have the international version myself, though I am perfectly fine with it and I wouldn't really exchange it for a 4G model even if I could.

Hi Mr. Technology challenged. There are tons of threads in the general section with wars going on this topic. Check those out.

Also if you aren't on ATT the international one isn't worth buying anyways.

Only question for me is do i want a quad or a dual?
The 2GB of ram is nice but negligible, very little will benefit from it, at the moment anyway.
The quad core system on my i9300 is a monster, i would hate to lose two of the cores.
Plus the development for the i9300 is top notch, which for me sell's itself.
I had a bad time with the evo 3D, the uk didn't like it very much and this was reflected in development, I chose it over the sensation XE as it had an extra 256MB of ram, oohhhh big mistake lol, the sensation wasn't as quick on paper but it was optimized due to better development and for that reason i was left wanting, huge regret.
Plus the 3D didn't help
The point i'm making is, don't go for a phone just because it's got a bit more ram, especially when what's already on offer (1GB) is more than enough.
The data side of it i wouldn't know as i'm in the UK, afaik it's pretty good here.
5mb down 1.5mb up, not too shabby

I can't see carrier logos in the XDA app so I said it anyways even so, in Canada you'll only get 2G on WIND and I believe Mobilicity but I could be wrong about the latter.
