Upcoming Verizon Phones in 2012

Verizon Communications is the biggest telecommunications operator in the United States, and it is also present in many other countries across the globe. The term 'Verizon' is a portmanteau of 'Veritas' and 'Horizon', and the CDMA network has more than 100 million active connections in the US as of now. Until recently, Verizon was releasing phones on all OS platforms other than the iOS (with an enhanced focus on Android), but from February 10, 2011, Verizon customers finally got access to the iPhone. Some of the Verizon phones that were showcased and announced at the CES 2012 have received rave reviews from the critics. As the year passes by, more and more phones will be announced.

Verizon Phones in 2012 - What Can We Expect?

Samsung Galaxy Journal (Note) If you are living outside the United States, you would have had enough of this phone by now. If you live in the States, and are an AT&T customer, it might be the phone on your 'buy' list. However, Verizon customers may need to wait for some time before they can lay their hands on this phone/tablet. The Samsung Note - as it has been known around the globe - has the distinction of having the biggest display in the market (considering it as a phone). On first look, one may easily mistake it as a downsized tablet, but this is something that Samsung has marketed the phone on. It takes watching videos and surfing the internet to another level. The specifications of this phone are: Super AMOLED capacitive screen 1 GB RAM, 16 GB/32 GB external memory 8 MP camera with autofocus and LED flash and 2 MP secondary camera Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS LG Lucid 4G It is expected that the LG Lucid 4G would be launched on the 29th of March, 2012. Courtesy PocketNow, specifications of the phone have been leaked on the internet. The phone is rumored to run on the 4G LTE network of Verizon. The features that are expected on this device are:- 1.2 GHz dual-core processor 4" screen 5 MP LED camera with Auto focus and Geo tagging 8 GB internal memory with 32 GB maximum card size Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS (may be updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich) Motorola Droid Fighter A couple of days ago, images of Motorola Droid Fighter were leaked on a Chinese website, and on the first look, it is hard to distinguish the phone from the recently launched Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX. It is rumored that the phone will be launched in the second week of April. While it is too early to talk about the specifications of this phone, it is believed that the phone will have similar sort of features as the Droid RAZR MAXX. The one striking feature that has got some tongues wagging out there is the mammoth 4.6" HD display. Another confirmation that we have on this phone is that it will be powered by the same 3300 mAh battery which runs the Droid RAZR MAXX. Casio G zone If your work requires you to be outdoors most of the time, then you may very well be looking forward to the Casio G zone. This phone has the distinction of being one of the sturdiest phones in the market. The phone is rumored to run on Android Froyo 2.2. Other specifications of this phone are an 8GB memory and a 5 MP camera. Not much is known about the phone as of now, but it is believed that the phone will release in the next couple of months.

These were some phones that are expected to release in the second quarter of 2012. As you can see that the list is not exhaustive, which is primarily because of the fact that after Verizon impressively displayed their phones to the world in CES 2012, official announcements have been rare.
