14 DAY TRIAL // South Korean mobile phone maker Samsung Electronics has been long rumored to be on its way to reveal in early 2011 a successor for the high-end Galaxy S smartphone launched on the market last year with Google's Android platform on board.
Apparently, the upcoming handset, which might be called Galaxy S2, is expected to make an official appearance as soon as next month, during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The new mobile phone would benefit from Samsung's experience with the aforementioned Galaxy S device, as well as with the recently launched Nexus S, the second Google phone.
The Galaxy S2, provided that this would be its actual name, should arrive on shelves with a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, Korean newspaper Etnews states (via BGR).
The specifications list of the upcoming smartphone would also include a dual-core application processor, as well as an NFC chip (Near Field Communication).
As one might expect, the said mobile phone would run under Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, the latest flavor of Google's mobile platform.
Although nothing is confirmed on this device for the time being, there are great chances that it would actually include the aforementioned specification.
Dual-core smartphones are already present on the market, and more of them would be released in the near future, not to mention that many would also pack NFC capabilities, and other high-end features.
However, the name of this device is not certain at the moment, and its actual looks might differ greatly from what can be seen in the photo attached to this article.
Since none of the previous rumors on this handset proved real, we'll take the new info on it with a grain of salt.
However, we'll look for the Android mobile phone at the said MWC event in Barcelona in mid-February, for Samsung might come up with highly-appealing new devices there, including the successor of Galaxy S.
