The Samsung GT-I9260 which is rumoured to be the next Nexus phone from Samsung with the name Galaxy Nexus 2 has shown up again on Picasa web with a sample picture taken from an 8MP camera.
The EXIF data pulled from the picture reveals that the resolution of the image is 2448 x 3264 and device’s Model number is GT-I9260. One important thing to note is the device is running on firmware version I9260XXALJ1. It’s the same firmware that was outed officially by Samsung for the Galaxy Note 2 and is based on Android 4.1.1. So clearly the GT-I9260 is not already running an Android 4.2 build which we are already seeing running on a few rumored Nexus devices from Motorola and LG. What could it mean? Has Samsung not gotten the Android 4.2 testing build yet or the GT-I9260 is not even a Nexus?
BTW, only 8 days ago a sample picture on picasa revealed that the Galaxy Nexus 2 will have a camera module of 5MP only. And today it’s 8MP. And only 8 days have passed. Should we trust these camera shots that appear on Picasa?
