Nexus Prime user agent profile displays expected specs
Published on Sep 8, 2011
Not very long ago, Samsung confirmed reports that stated it is working on Nexus Prime. However, very recently, the company has put out the User Agent Profile (UAProf) for the model. Interestingly, of all the information received about the handset, most of it is on expected lines.
The UAProf mentions ARM11 processor in Nexus Prime, which was expected. Interestingly, it also happens to be the architecture behind the OMAP 4460. The model number GT-I9250 is also confirmed. The only thing odd out here is the screen resolution.
According to Pocket Now, Nexus Prime is being presented to have a WVGA screen (480 X 800 pixels resolution), lower than the Super AMOLED HD resolution that is fast turning out to be an industrial norm. However, experts have pointed out that this could be an intentional move from Samsung to confuse marketers and speculators. The reason behind this logic being the fact that UAProf mentions the max MMS resolutions as 1200 X 1600 that normally is same as the screen resolution.
With no clear and concrete picture in sight still, the above-proposed theory of market experts is carrying momentum with each passing hour. They strongly believe that Samsung is withholding original specifications until the time Nexus Prime is ready for launch. Though expected from Samsung, which right now is struggling to recover from 7-inch Galaxy Tab sales debacle, the practice of holding back information certainly makes no sense. Whatever be it, Samsung certainly has a lot to prove since the recent months have been quite disappointing for them.
Samsung already has been under fire for misleading market by not giving exact sales figures for the 7-inch Galaxy Tab. As pointed out by Lenovo, the company has only been able to sell 20000 devices out of the 1 million shipped to different markets.
