Tuesday 13 December 2011 – Telstra customers will be the first in Australia to get their hands on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus™ smartphone which goes on sale from select Telstra stores and online tomorrow.
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is the first smartphone in the world to feature Google’s new Android™ 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) operating system which brings an entirely new look and feel to Android™.
Andrew Volard, Director, Telstra Mobile, said the pre-Christmas launch of Galaxy Nexus ™ on the Telstra Mobile Network would see people around Australia re-writing their wish lists.
“Telstra customers have been counting down to the launch of the world’s first Android 4.0 smartphone and we’re delighted to be able to offer this groundbreaking device ahead of Christmas. Our customers are going to love the beautifully redesigned Android 4.0 operating system which features a more modern user interface, resizable widgets and improved web browsing and multitasking. The super-thin Galaxy Nexus with its extraordinarily vivid 4.65-inch HD Super AMOLED display is the perfect smartphone to experience Google’s most intuitive operating system yet.
“Our customers will also enjoy superior web browsing on the Galaxy Nexus thanks to Telstra’s HSPA+ mobile download speeds. Customers can pull down web pages faster, stream video with less buffering, and access their social networks more quickly,” Mr Volard said.
Vice President of Telecommunications at Samsung Electronics Australia, Tyler Mcgee, said “Samsung is delighted to introduce a new addition in the highly successful GALAXY family to Australian consumers. The GALAXY Nexus is the first Australian handset to feature Android 4.0 (Ice cream Sandwich), bringing an entirely new look and feel to the popular operating system.”
