Android enthusiasts living in the United States prepare for a slew of new smartphones coming from Samsung. The South Korean company plans to launch several mid-ranged devices through multiple carriers.

According to The Verge, a certain Samsung Galaxy Admire 4G will be released at MetroPCS, though we don’t have an exact release date for the moment. We do know the smartphone will be powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread platform and, as the name suggests, it will come with LTE support.

Samsung Galaxy Discover will arrive at TracFone, which indicates that this is an affordable smartphone. However, unlike the Galaxy Admire mentioned earlier, this one will be shipped with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system out of the box.

Keep in mind that given the fact that TracFone does not offer branded phones, the Galaxy Discover may end up being launched under a different name.

Major carrier Verizon Wireless is expected to launch two new Android smartphones by the end of the year, the Galaxy Stellar and Galaxy Stratosphere 2. Both will be released with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich platform onboard.

Samsung Galaxy Stellar will be DROID Charge’s successor and will be equipped with a dual-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz, while the Galaxy Stratosphere 2 will offer global roaming capabilities, SAFE certification and QWERTY keyboard.

It is also worth mentioning that the Galaxy Stellar will be powered by a high-capacity 2,100 mAh Li-Ion battery and will come with LTE support.

Last but not least, Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE will be released via Sprint in the following weeks. The smartphone will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system and will be packed with LTE support and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology.

In addition, Galaxy Victory 4G LTE is said to sport a WVGA capacitive touchscreen display and a 5-megapixel rear photo snapper. Stay tuned for more updates on the matter.
