Super AMOLED first came on the scene less than a year ago. Yet, here it is getting an upgrade already in the form of the Super AMOLED Plus, which will debut in the new Samsung Infuse 4G.
What will we get with Samsung's latest display technology? According to the company, it will feature a 50% boost in sub-pixel count, resulting in notable improvements in both the screen's contrast and readability under sunlight. A full 4.5 inches of that makes it to the new handset, making it one of the largest screens in a smartphone to date (which should render it unpocketable, despite that crazy slim design).
Announced details of the Samsung Infuse 4G include an 8 megapixel camera module around the back, a 1.3 megapixel camera in the front for video chats and the usual roster of wireless connectivity options. Do note that, despite the name, this isn't an LTE phone; instead, it's going to connect to AT&T's HSPA+ network, which is a beefier 3G network, rather than 4G.
It will run Android 2.2, likely with Samsung's usual TouchWiz UI running on top. Processor is a 1.2-GHz single-core Hummingbird, which should be plenty fast enough to commandeer the whole thing.
Announced by Samsung and AT&T at CES, the device isn't ready for primetime yet, so only dummy units were on hand. Regardless, the Samsung Infuse 4G should prove one of the more interesting Android options this year with the next-gen display and that hot-looking slim frame. No word on pricing or release dates, though.
