All Galaxy S Smartphones to Get Android 2.2

This image has no alt text

Even with Samsung’s track record on some of their other devices, we expected Android 2.2 would be a big part in the future of the Galaxy S. The fact that they’re launching this thing in every nook and every corner imaginable to this Earth should be a big enough hint to assume they wouldn’t leave this device out in the cold when it comes to support.

They only offered “later this year” as a timeframe, but Sprint claims the wait for their version – the Samsung Epic 4G – won’t be long. Pretty assuring if you were enticed by the phone’s physical QWERTY keyboard, front-facing camera (something the other carriers suspiciously lack) and don’t mind TouchWiz.

    Good step in dealing with fragmentation issues. Seems like about everything will be 2.2 in a month or two.

    I don’t think it would be too hard to update TouchWiz 3.0 to 2.2. Many FroYo Nexus users are using that (dreadful) TouchWiz 3.0 launcher.

    Droid X v. Galaxy S is going to be an interesting debate this summer. Both have super-powerful processors (and GPUs), big screens, good cameras. Galaxy S on 105+ carriers in many countries while Droid X on 1 carrier in 1 country (I hope they release GSM versions). Droid X looks better imo. And Motorola has promised 2.2 late this summer.

    Wait but this is different because it is a better phone than that one because that wasn’t the best Samsung phone when it came out :)
