Samsung Stealth 4G to hit Verizon April 14

Samsung LTE 4GLeaked pictures and anonymous tipsters, how ye make the world go round. The folks at TechnoBuffalo have caught a glimpse of the Samsung  4G LTE phone Verizon showed off at CES this year. It has been renamed the Samsung Stealth and is now targeted for an April 14th launch. More importantly, we’ve got its tech specs listed below. Many of these specs were revealed at CES, but a few are new.

Samsung Stealth specs

  • Android 2.2 Froyo, upgradeable
  • 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen (480×800)
  • 1 GHz Hummingbird processor
  • 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi
  • Mobile hotspot up to 8 devices
  • 8MP rear camera, LED flash, auto-focus
  • 1.3MP front camera
  • 828 MBs internal storage
  • microSD memory card slot expandable up to 32GBs
  • Assisted GPS
  • HDMI port, 720p HD
  • 1500 mAh   lithium ion battery (standard size)

Not bad specs, but there is nothing impressive about them either, aside from Samsung’s Super AMOLED screen, which is gorgeous. Interestingly, many of Verizon’s next generation 4G phones have single-core processors, while many 3G phones are moving to dual-core. Perhaps 4G integration is costing manufacturers or there is a problem with dual-core devices and Verizon’s LTE network. We know that Motorola’s Xoom, a dual-core device, is supposed to have 4G LTE, but won’t get it for some months. Owners will have to send in their Xoom to have 4G added.

To check out our initial impressions of the Samsung Stealth, head here. A couple pictures from TechnoBuffalo are below.

The Google Pixel 8a is official. Here’s everything that’s new
Someone taking a phone call on the aloe Google Pixel 8a.

A week ahead of its annual developers' conference, Google has dropped a new budget phone in its Pixel-A series. The Google Pixel 8a retains the line’s signature look with a horizontal camera island at the back, but serves it in a package that embraces rounded corners and also happens to be fractionally smaller and lighter

The most meaningful changes are reserved for the display, silicon, and battery. The OLED screen’s size remains the same at 6.1 inches with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. However, the refresh rate has been increased to 120Hz, up from the Google Pixel 7a's 90Hz display. This HDR-ready panel offers a peak brightness of up to 2,000 nits and also features a fingerprint sensor underneath.

Apple has quietly killed its cheapest iPad
Three 2021 iPads are stacked on a table.

The iPad lineup has received a price bump after Apple quietly killed its cheapest iPad model. Apple’s 9th-generation iPad used to cost $329, but has been discontinued. At the same time, the company has reduced the 10th-gen iPad’s starting price by $100, which means it’s now priced at $349. As a result, getting the cheapest iPad means you'll now spend $20 more than before.

The 9th-gen Apple iPad was launched in 2021 with the A13 chipset and Apple's Center Stage featur,e but retained the same old design with the already-old Lightning port and home button. With Apple moving to a USB-C port on all devices to comply with EU laws, it was inevitable that Apple would discontinue the 9th-gen iPad this year. The iPhone SE remains the only Apple product with a home button and a Lightning port that's still available in the company's lineup.
