Galaxy S II Joins Nexus S, Explores Space

Remember back in December, when Google’s Mobile Blog posted pictures and videos of a Nexus S tied to some weather balloons, floating around the Earth? Well, it looks like Samsung wants in on the fun, as they’ve launched a Galaxy S II into space atop a small astronaut, tied to a weather balloon.

Is Andy Breaking Down?

Before I begin, I’d like to stress that this is an opinion piece, and doesn’t necessarily reflect the views of AndroidGuys. I’m just a grumpy 17-year-old voicing my thoughts.

The device above is a leaked Sharp Android phone that’s likely headed to North America, as well as Europe and Asia. It’s being referenced as the SH8188U, and it’ll be packing Froyo, a WVGA display of unknown size, 3G connectivity, WiFi, an HDMI port, 5MP camera with HD video recording, and possibly a front-facing camera.
