Verizon has enjoyed phones with hardware keyboards from a plethora of OEMs, but one manufacturer who has been oddly absent from the fold is Samsung. It looks like all that is set to change, though, as a QWERTY-enabled device for VZW. It’s being likened to their version of the Samsung Epic 4G, but no word on whether or not it’ll have LTE has yet to be given.
The keyboard certainly looks similar save for the red accents that’s reminiscent of their brand. We also expect at least a Super AMOLED display and a 1GHz Hummingbird processor. Its model number is i405, meaning it should certainly be classified as a Galaxy S phone as that is a step above the Continuum’s model number, i400. The device is expected to make its way to Verizon late summer or early fall. [PocketNow]
