Samsung Galaxy Nexus Release Date on Verizon Rumored for Nov. 21: Report
Speculations for the release date of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus continues to grow after a leaked screenshot of a reported Verizon Wireless road map on Monday shows that the Android Ice Cream Sandwich-powered smartphone will launch Nov. 21.
This is just four days after the international launch, as Samsung tweeted on Oct. 27 that the Galaxy Nexus will roll out across Europe beginning Nov. 17.
Droid Life received the screen shot on Monday, which read that the Galaxy Nexus will be available Web only on Nov. 21. The screenshot also reveals the date for other phones, including the Samsung Illusion and the BlackBerry Curve 9370, which will both be out Nov. 17.
Should Verizon launch the Galaxy Nexus on Nov. 17 it could pay off well, as it will be just in time for Thanksgiving and Black Friday, when customers are looking to make luxury purchases.
There have been several speculations regarding launch dates for the Galaxy Nexus this month.
The buzz continues to grow around the Galaxy Nexus because it is the first smartphone to incorporate Ice Cream Sandwich, Google's new operating system, which was built for both Android smartphones and tablet OS. Rumors also surfaced that other U.S. carriers besides Verizon Wireless could carry the Galaxy Nexus on their networks. However, Samsung hasn't confirmed anything yet.
The Galaxy Nexus smartphone was unveiled in Hong Kong in mid-October.
The 8.9-millimeter thick device is complete with a 1.2 gigahertz dual-core processor, a 4.65-inch Super AMOLED HD screen with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels, 1GB of RAM; 32GB of storage, a 5-megapixel camera, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera for video chats, and support for 1080p HD video capture and playback.
