That could change with the new Samsung i8520 �Halo� which was revealed at Mobile World Congress. This Android 2.1 device sports some high some-end specs and several features which are new to Android phones.
Highlights of the specs include:
- 3.7-inch WVGA Super AMOLED display
- 8 megapixel autofocus camera with flash (VGA on the front)
- Internal memory: at least 2GB (512 MB ROM / 384 MB RAM + 16GB MoviNAND)
- DLP Pico projector integrated
- Other features: 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, A-GPS, stereo speakers, standard 3.5mm jack, and DLNA support
- Operating System: Android 2.1
Unique to this phone is a Texas Instruments DLP pico projector. We have seen these being pushed for a couple years, but this is the first time for an Android phone. The projector can display images from 5 to 50 inches and Texas Instruments thinks it will be the next �must have� feature for your new smartphone.
The another new addition to the Halo phone is Samsung�s new Super AMOLED display. This new panel is claimed to be five times �clearer� and offer 20% better visibility when used outside compared to traditional AMOLED displays. (I think the AMOLED display on the Nexus One is awesome, so I can�t wait see if this actually beats it.)
No details were provided on the CPU, but the new Bada-powered Wave (s8500) phone features a 1 GHz Samsung processor.
The renders that Samsung provided show the Halo with the Bada operating system, but Engadget has confirmed it will ship with Android 2.1. We don�t know if Samsung will include their TouchWiz UI, but we are keeping our fingers crossed they leave it out.
