Maybe they are more in tune with the Korean marketplace then we are and that style is what sells in Korea. These phones are not meant for the US market. ]]>Apr 28th 2010 7:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/
Samsung is supposedly bringing out their app store next month, which they've been beta-testing in Britain. This wont matter much to Koreans who use Apple's US marketplace, as Samsung wont be able to come close to competing with the games in the US market, but Samsung will have more than an ability to people who use a Korean marketplace because Apple's app store is limited in Korea (no games) and Samsung can one-up them there while delivering a similar looking product.


Wow, TL;TR, but yes, I agree completely, but understand what they are doing. ]]>Apr 28th 2010 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/If Apple has no games on the Korean AppStore it will probably be for regulatory reasons, ie game developers will have to receive age ratings from national bodies before they they can legally sell their games. Why would this be different for Samsung games? Or what is the reason holding up games on the AppStore?

Besides, Samsung's strategy seems to be about their own OS Bada first. These Android phones could be also be more of a stop-gap measure as well a product for the geek niche that is Android's main strength so far. I don't know if Samsung are interested in building comprehensive services for Android, thereby diminishing the value of Bada.]]>Apr 28th 2010 8:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/
Next, the games is 100% regulation. Currently in SK, 100% of games have to be approved by a government agency here, Apple decided to just avoid that route, similar to how Youtube forewent some video uploading laws by allowing users to set up accounts in other countries. Currently, Android games are available, but the government has threatened Google with taking out 100% of the app store (unless they can/do segregate their games for the Korean market, currently they definitely don't). But Samsung IMO will have an easier time navigating these waters due to: political influence, local culture, related regulatory experience and even having a size (being smaller) advantage. So, they aren't "holding up games" they are essentially censoring complete apps stores and/or store segments if 100% of games don't pass through their filter. - Bad stuff, but not really surprising considering other similar measures they take with information/gaming censorship. ]]>Apr 28th 2010 3:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/Apr 28th 2010 8:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/Apr 28th 2010 8:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/
But i am talking about raw graphical appeal... i am a big fan of stock android appearance coz after a lil while of using hero i turned Sense off... but what got me sold onto the phone was senseUI's sexiness, which is not the case with these two phones... but i guess "blindguymcsqueezy" has a point too ... we dont know what ticks the korean mind ....]]>Apr 28th 2010 8:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/Apr 28th 2010 8:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/Apr 28th 2010 9:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/Apr 28th 2010 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/
Makes me wonder why they don't just install Android on the O2?]]>Apr 28th 2010 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/28/android-goes-asian-samsung-debuts-galaxy-a-lg-intros-lg-su950/
