Malaysia’s biggest supporter of Android devices — Maxis — will be bringing in another high-end Android phone, this time in the form of the Samsung Galaxy S.
Details are sparse on the Maxis pre-order page, safe for the fact that the device will retail for RM2599 outright. No indication how much it will cost with a plan attached but we’re assuming that it will be very close to HTC Desire range, which is around RM1500.
So what will you be getting with the Galaxy S?
Samsung has also included a propriety augmented reality app in the Galaxy S that it claims will offer rich augmented reality and location based content.
Maxis says the Galaxy S runs on the latest Android OS. We’re not sure that their definition of “latest” if but the last time we checked, the Galaxy S runs on Android 2.1 NOT the latest 2.2 Froyo. And to date, there’s no indication that a 2.2 update is available for the S, so we’re not too sure what they’re on about.
In the meantime, hope on over to the jump for some promo videos of the Galaxy S
The interesting thing about the Galaxy S is that it doesn’t feature the four standard navigation buttons seen on almost all Android phones. Instead if you look at the demo videos a very iPhone-ish navigation UI.
Head on over to the Maxis website to pre-order your Galaxy S but we’d be causious though. Maxis didn’t indicate when the phone will be available. Scary to think that my the time it is available the iPhone 4 will have already arrived.
