FCC welcomes Sprint variant of the Samsung GALAXY Note II and more

Three Samsung devices met the FCC

Over the weekend, we told you that the FCC had received a visit from the Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile versions of the Samsung GALAXY Note II. Not to be outdone, the Sprint variant of the phone caught up with the others and has also enjoyed a plate of Oreos and a glass of milk with the Feds. The SPH-L900, as the phablet is known as in certain high class circles, should be officially introduced to a screaming mob sedate contingent of the media on October 24th.

Accompanying the SPH-L900 to the FCC's office was a pair of Samsung tablets. The SPH-P500 and SCH-i915 would appear to be 4G LTE versions of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) for Sprint and Verizon respectively. Interestingly, someone ran the Verizon version of the tablet on GLBenchmark and listed it as having the popular Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 under the hood. Earlier versions of the tablet had the TI OMAP 4430 running the show.
