The phone is especially thin and light due to the Super AMOLED screen taking up less space. The camera being able to do 720p HD video recording will certainly be a big draw. But the price could be quite high looking at the feature list. You might expect the $500 range easily due to all of the new technology in the unit. They state that it will be available in Latin America, North America, Europe and Asia soon.
This could be the phone that squarely places Android (and Samsung) at the forefront of the smartphone market. It’s current feature list outstrips that of even the iPhone 3GS.
