Samsung Galaxy A caught on video
The just released Samsung Galaxy A just received an unboxing and video walkthrough, and if you’re into watching a seven minute video about a phone that’ll probably never ship to the US, in a language you don’t understand, well, by all means! All kidding aside though, the Samsung Galaxy A is actually quite impressive–the colors on the screen pop, the build quality looks good, and the transitions are rather snappy. There’s even a full-on antenna for mobile TV. Samsung is certainly upping their Android game with the Galaxy A and we hope the Galaxy S can extend that, while finding a way to the US.

Samsung Galaxy A now available in South Korea
The Samsung Galaxy A, not to be confused with the Samsung Galaxy S, is now available in South Korea. The Galaxy A runs Android 2.1 and features a 3.7-inch WVGA AMOLED screen, 720 MHz processor, and DivX support. It also packs a front-facing camera for video calls, 5-megapixel back facing camera for pictures, and support for T-DMB, which is basically Mobile TV. Surprisingly, given that Samsung is a Korean company, the Samsung Galaxy A is Samsung’s first Android device in Korea
Apps will be available for download in the Android Market, SK Telecom T-store, and Samsung’s own app store Samsung Apps. In all, it sounds like an awesome phone. It’s incredibly cool to see Android tweaked and tailored to fit a country’s needs. Thank you versatility. [samsung via samsunghub]
