Looks like it may be Korea only initially. No Sprint tri-band for us...

 

thank goodness.  I don't mind if Korea is the guinea pig for this type of stuff.  I'll be interested to see how the reviews and perception are of this device.

I'm just waiting for devices with flexible displays to have... flexible displays.  :P

I was told by our Sammy rep "You can take a hammer to this thing". If that's true, even without being actually flexible in the wobbly manner, that's pretty awesome.

I hope your Samsung rep is better than ours. Ours showed me a "secret" photo of the Gear about a month before it was announced. It was not a picture of the Gear. It was one of the Internet "leaks" that was debunked. I didn't have the heart to tell him his picture had been debunked several days before.

I kinda like it. I mean if the tilt controls are true this is somewhat innovation and yes the comments on the verge are talking whether our qualifies as innovation

The back side of my one is curved and it rocks in the same manner.  An app developer can easily create something that does the same thing simply by detecting what the phone internal sensors are going. This isn't something you need a curved screen to accomplish.  So in my opinion the feature is cool but not really that practical like most other touchwiz features.

Seems like I'd look like I had my cup in my pocket...

 

The all-new Samsung Galaxy Cup, the Next Big Thing is finally here. Take your mobile protection wherever you go. Now with twice the vibration motors to make sure you always stay alert.

True but maybe this will give them ideas and I never said I would buy it it was just an interesting read and try on Samsung's part

Oh no doubt, samsung has came up with a lot of really cool ideas on paper over the last few years but they seem to want to pack every single idea into their phones not realizing that most people won't actually use most of these features.  I just feel like they need to focus more on getting touchwiz polished up to where they don't need 3gb of ram to run their UI.

Wake me up when I can get a Samsung handset with the kitchen sink.  A toilet would be nice, too, so that I can TakeWiz.

I know that if my son Joey wants it, it must be a useless gimmick. ;)

    • The DAS at LGA Terminal B actually has n41 at 100+20, but if you are deprioritized, good luck on the busy days, as all the bands are congested, even B41 and n41, with data being worse than 128kbps international roaming. It has SA active for n41 as well. The L train tunnel is actually 80+20 for n41, with SA n41 active. Speeds aren't anything compared to Philadelphia's DAS system that has n41 though. The gig+ upgrades are expanding, as eNBs 894588 (Sprint convert site) and 55987 can both pass 1 Gbps now. Clocked nearly 1.3Gbps on eNB 55987 today.
    • Hopefully this goes thru!  https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/1211mh7/tmobile_files_another_sta_application_to/
    • Yup 80MHz C-band + 40MHz DoD for a total of 120MHz. They should be pretty well setup post-clearance. — — — — — Famous Verizon site on Atlantic referenced in this reddit post got moved to the top of the building next door. — — — — — Also looks like I mapped a T-Mobile oDAS node eNB 347812 in Brooklyn Heights. Streetview shows it as one of the CC nodes with no antenna on top as of May 2022 but this specific eNB was first mapped this month. I didn't notice that I mapped it until I got home but the range on it is significantly greater than the normal "antenna-less" nodes T-Mobile deploys. I'm wondering if it got upgraded to the new 5G oDAS design but I won't be able to check it out until next weekend.  
    • I didn't know they had access to 80 MHz of c-band that does change some things then once that's online
    • While I've been loath to update my Samsung devices past the May 2022 update to keep the Band Selection tool, I note that it looks like Android 14 is going to add Timing Advance for NR to the API.  (Was looking today as I have another Verizon A42 5G now that I'm going to unlock for T-Mobile, and wanted to figure out if I should let it update or not.)  Since I can technically make band changes from *#73#, on the A42 5Gs, I can probably live without the Band Selection tool if a later Android version adds something useful like TA values. I assume SCP will be updated to support that once it becomes publicly available.  The real question is whether or not the phones will support it.  My S21FE and A42 5G devices do on LTE, but I know the S22 and the A32 5G do not support it even on LTE, providing just zero in that field. - Trip
