Our tipster has been hard at work scouring the annals of Verizon Wireless inventory. First we saw the Motorola MZ600 tablet pop up with dummy and demo units in two, then we got a look at listings for the Motorola Citrus and Motorola XT610, and now we have the Samsung Continuum making an appearance. The Continuum is another mid-range device that should class in the same range as the LG Ally. Other than that broad categorization very little is known other than a rumored release date falling sometime in October.
With all of these new inventory additions it appears Big Red is preparing for an all-out Droid assault this holiday season, and it looks like a large part of it will be low to mid-range devices to fill out a lineup that has been a bit top heavy with behemoth phones like the Droid X, Droid 2, and Samsung Fascinate leading the pack. Who knows what will pop up in their inventory next!
What tells you that these will be Android phones? There are supposed to be Win7 phones in October.
I’m thinking Samsung is staying on the Android side…
Whats the SCH-I600 if the I500 is the Fascinate?
Samsung Fascinate is not leading any pack! That phone is a huge FAIL for Verizon. I would put the Incredible in the Fascinate’s place.
Why is everyone hating on the Fascinate? Just cause stuff isn’t related and you have to download it? Or the UI? To each their own but I this phone is very nice and is selling pretty good.
MR. SLAVE why do you say that the Fascinate is a bad phone
@Mr Slave,
My Fascinate will run circles around the Incredible. The only thing “wrong” with the phone is bing, and even that has workarounds without root now. Nice try though.
@Mr slave.
yeah you can have your incredible my fascinate blows it out of the water I had an incredible and once the fascinate gets 2.2 it wont even be close it already is better and with froyo with Google search its game over. Nice try though.
How would this compare to the also upcoming Samsung Gem?
Samsung’s Galaxy S series phones are already proven to be top performers. This version will be no different with exact same CPU, GPU, screen and other configurations. These phones kill other phones in benchmark numbers:

I believe Samsung Gem is a lower-end model.
gotta love the haters….samsung fascinate is in my hands and my opinion is that it is better than the droid X. better screen quality, better form factor, small bing fix was simple….this screen is epic, blows any “Droid” away! haha
