The original Samsung Jet launched nearly a year ago, so it’s about time Samsung released a successor. They may just be releasing the same exact device, with a change not to the phone, but to the price tag. We don’t have a problem with that, as a price drop is never bad. What we’re confused about, is why Samsung is offering the device with gangster movies.
The original Samsung Jet was one of the most popular devices around the world for a long time, even as companies like HTC announced their Android-powered Hero. Considering the hardware powering the phone, we’re not shocked. In fact, the Samsung Jet is one of the fastest devices on the market, still, with some notable exceptions. As we mentioned, the new “Ultra Edition” Jet isn’t much different from the original Jet: It’s got the same 800MHz processor, the same 3.1-inch AMOLED touchscreen; a 5MP camera, Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS, and 2GB of on board memory. There’s an expandable MicroSD card slot though, which gives you the ability to expand that memory up to 16GB. It’s also rocking Samsung’s loved TouchWiz 2.0. The device also has several web-links to your favorite social media sites, like MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter, which provides easy access to the mobile versions of those sites.
