We first heard about the Samsung R920 last year in August when the first test photos made with the device leaked in the wild. However, few details on the handset’s specs sheet emerged in the meantime and no pictures of the actual device were published until recently.

 

The folks over at XDA Developers have just caught the Samsung R920 on camera, which wears MetroPCS’ branding logo. This seems to be the successor of the carrier’s R910 (Indulge) smartphone, which will probably be discontinued soon after the R920 hits shelves.

 

According to the latest hearsay, the Samsung R920 is a Gingerbread-powered smartphone that comes with a WVGA capacitive touchscreen of unknown size, a 1 GHz single core processor and 512 MB of RAM.

 

There’s also a rear camera with LED flash, as well as a secondary front-facing camera for video calls. The back cover of the device has a 4G logo stamped on it, which indicates that the phone features LTE support.
