First 4G LTE Phone: Samsung SCH-R900

WiMAX now has something to look out for. Samsung’s LTE Phone (SCH-R900) has just been approved by FCC, the Federal Communications Commission that regulates communication device. This means a 4G LTE Phone is closer to reality, which give WiMAX players necessary competition in the 4G space. Not much has been revealed about the device but it could be either using Samsung’s Bada OS or Android.

Today, there are 2 notable 4G WiMAX phones, the HTC EVO 4G and the Samsung Epic 4G.

When it comes to 4G, there’s always debate between LTE and WiMAX on delivering true 4G service. So far WiMAX has been very visible with the introduction of various WiMAX phones and even most recently WiMAX notebooks. LTE’s camp has been strongly opposing WiMAX as 4G which they claim LTE being superior. We would say talk is cheap especially when there’s nothing to show from LTE. With the emergence of LTE devices, we hope to see real life comparisons between the 2 where the results speak for themselves.

Just a month ago, Samsung has released a LTE/3G USB Modem and we shall expect more LTE device from the Korean maker soon.
