AT&T has announced almost most of what we can expect from the company in the coming months the roll-call includes twenty 4G enabled devices. Three being a magical number, the carrier has opened it’s goodie bag to pull out three stunning smartphones that will operate on 4G networks. These include HTC Inspire 4G, Motorola Atrix 4G and Samsung’s very own Infuse 4G.
Powered by a 1 GHz dual-core processor, the Atrix operates on Android 2.2. Fitted with a high-resolution qHD display sized up at 4 inches, the handset brings along an HD media dock and a Laptop dock. The handset blends in Froyo with the brisk speed of 4G networks. Coming to HTC Inspire 4G, the device flaunts a 4.3-inch super LCD.
Bringing in the sweetness of Froyo, the Inspire runs on the latest HTC Sense user interface with cloud services. Powered by a robust Qualcomm Snapdragon 1 GHz processor, it is fitted with an 8 megapixel camera capable of 720p HD video recording. The handset has been sculpted with aluminum, showing off a sleek and elegant form factor.
“Today we are the clear leader when it comes to offering the most extensive line-up of handsets and devices,” quoted Ralph de la Vega, president and CEO of AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. “We plan to strengthen our portfolio with powerful 4G devices and a major new commitment to offer an industry-leading portfolio of Android devices.”
“The upcoming lineup of 4G Android smartphones from AT&T is truly cutting-edge,” affirmed Andy Rubin, vice president of Engineering at Google. “These devices coupled with the recent deployment of carrier billing as an Android Market purchase option for AT&T customers are great examples of AT&T’s commitment to smartphone leadership.”
The Samsung Infuse 4G boasts of being the thinnest Android device and being fitted with the largest display within AT&T’s smartphone lineup. It features a 4.5 inch display using Samsung’s latest Super AMOLED Plus technology. This said to offer additional 50 percent of sub-pixels for enhanced contrast and outdoor readability. The device runs on a 1.2GHz application processor while operating on Android 2.2.
The HTC Inspire 4G and Motorola Atrix 4G are anticipated to be released in the first quarter of 2011, exclusively available for AT&T customers. On the other hand, the Samsung Infuse 4G is scheduled for a second quarter launch again solely available for AT&T subscribers.
