The inevitable has finally happened as the Samsung Continuum has been officially unveiled. The Samsung Continuum has become world’s secondAndroid smartphone with a Super AMOLED touchscreen, but the major advantage is that this one features two Super AMOLED screens.
The Samsung Continuum specs include a primary 3.4-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen, secondary 1.8-inch Super AMOLED display, Android 2.1 OS, 1GHz Hummingbird CPU, 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, autofocus, and 720p HD video recording, WiFi 802.11b/g/n, pre-loaded 8GB microSD card, six-axis sensor, grip sensor, accelerometer, Stereo Bluetooth, and Bing Search as well as Bing Maps as default apps.
The grip sensor in the Samsung Continuum will allow users to light up the 1.8-inch display by touching the bottom sides of the smartphones. I’m saddened by the fact that Verizon continues to push Bing Maps and Bing Search on Android devices as Google Maps and Google Search are way better.
Another disappointing fact about the Samsung Continuum is that it’s powered by Android2.1, instead of Froyo 2.2. This software has been launched months ago and in the following days, Android 2.3 Gingerbread will become available for download on the Google Nexus One.
If you were wondering about a launch date and price details, then the Samsung Continuum release date is November 11th exclusively at Verizon for $200 with a new two-year contract and after a $100 MIR.
Samsung also took this opportunity to talk about Samsung Galaxy S sales which now stand above 7 million worldwide and above 3 million in the US.
