Samsung SCH-I425 "Godiva" appears on photos, lacks QWERTY keyboard

The mysterious Samsung SCH-I425, also known by its "Godiva" codename, appeared on the GLBenchmark database earlier this week. And judging by its model number, we were quick to assume that it was a successor to the Samsung Stratosphere II (model SCH-I415) QWERTY slider from Verizon. However, the smartphone in question has now been leaked on the web, and a QWERTY keyboard is nowhere to be seen...

why just sell GS3 instead? An excuse to reduce the price? the phone looks much worse than GS3

Multiple choice good, but giving too much choice wasn't a good idea, it seems like every month Samsung keep releasing a new phone... Personally i think this a little bit too much.....

Actually by what I can see out of the pics it's not a gs3 body, but rather a Stratosphere with updated internals, jellybean, and no keyboard. But I agree it seems pointless to release, unless you like everything about the gs3 but the screen size. Or you like the Stratosphere but wish it didn't have a keyboard.

Like I said in the first article on this phone, they putting out to many throw away phones. They need to focus on a few models and make sure that those don't get EOL for at least 2 years so they will last the contract.

this has more in common with the Galaxy Stellar tbh.

This will be one of those phones that people complain about when it never gets a software update.

i don't see why considering it has the exact same specs as the SIII and it's running UX.

being that this is so similar to the SIII i think that this will be Droid Branded as maybe a Droid Charge II. o:

also doesn't it look like on the back cover that it supports wireless charging?
a pretty nice feature for anything that Samsung or Verizon is going to let sit in the SIII's shadow. money is definitely on it being Droid Branded so Verizon can sprinkle it with their marketing magic.
