T-Mobile Samsung Behold II Availability Now Official

Tweet

Just yesterday we told you how the Samsung Behold II is going to be available on November 18 and today we have the official press release to back all those rumors up. T-Mobile has decided to come clean with its newest Android handset and, no doubt about it, you’ll be able to get it starting next week.

The Behold II is definitely an impressive smartphone which should suit all your Android needs. Needless to say though that the Droid is everyone’s favorite right now so T-Mobile will not sell as many Behold II handsets as expected. But here’s what Wendy Pinero-Depencier, vice president of T-Mobile’s brand and calendar marketing, had to say about the Samsung Behold II:

With its first-rate multimedia capabilities front and center, the Samsung Behold II adds an exclamation point to T-Mobile’s already impressive Android lineup for the holidays. The combination of 3G speeds, its high-resolution touch-screen, and access to loads of entertainment features is sure to make the Behold II into a holiday hit.

As you already know, the Behold II has to offer more than decent specs. Features like the 3.2-inch AMOLED touchscreen, the 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, zoom, flash, five shooting modes and video capabilities, 3G connectivity and Samsung’s TouchWiz US make this phone a powerful gadget in the right hands. Other specs include GPS, Bluetooth 2.1, visual voicemail support, Wi-Fi, microSD support for up to 16GB of extra memory and Exchange ActiveSync support.

The Behold is packed with all Google services that you require to have access to while on the go: Google Search, Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube and Google Talk are all there waiting for you. The Android Market will offer all the extra apps you need. The only thing we don’t appreciate is that the Android 2.0 is not available to Behold II customers yet.

The official price for the Behold II is $229.99 with a two-year contract and you’ll be able to get it starting with Wednesday, November 18. Any takers?
