Samsung announces dual-screen Continuum

So the big event yesterday wasn’t the speculated Nexus Two but it was actually the announcement of the new Samsung Continuum which is based on the popular Samsung Galaxy S.

While we’ve seen many variants of Galaxy S for US market, the Continuum is something different. It comes with a primary 3.4″ Super AMOLED display doing 800×480 and a secondary 1.8″ Super AMOLED ticker display with 480×96 resolution. This secondary ticker display is something new and there’s even a grip sensor that activates the screen by touching the bottom sides of the device. This gives you weather report, social networking status, messages, IM and email notifications.

The rest of the features are pretty much similar with the rest of the Galaxy S variants. It has a 1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird processor, runs on Android 2.1, features 5.0MP auto-focus camera with LED flash and support for 720p HD recording. Storage wise, there’s a 8GB microSD preinstalled which is expandable to 32GB. At time of launch, this is set to be a VerizonWireless exclusive device in the US. It will be available 11th November onwards with Verizon Wireless for $199.99 after rebate and 2 years contract.

There are several hands-on experiences by those who we’re present. Check out Engadget and Android Central.
