AT&T is launching another Galaxy S II device, called the Skyrocket, a variant of Galaxy S II LTE. It adds 4G LTE support to already very impressive spec-sheet — which includes 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display and 1.5GHz dual-core processor to boot — of ubiquitously adored Galaxy S II, and is one of the two LTE android phones carrier has planned for November 6 launch, the other being HTC Vivid.
We know AT&T’s LTE network hasn’t been launched widely, and is limited to a small bunch of cities only, but AT&T is on course to expand its LTE coverage and is betting on these two genuinely supreme device to march its war with Verizon and its LTE phones — which are hell-impressive, too: the Motorola Droid RAZR, Google’s Samsung-made Galaxy Nexus and HTC Rezound.
War of LTE phones, isn’t it? And Android’s the platform on both sides, and it isn’t surprising at all.
