New name, new pictures for the Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G

Side view of the model

When the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze Q didn't launch on August 15th as expected, the possibility existed that the name change to the Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G was behind the delay. Since the training document confirmed the nifty new moniker for the side-slider, the question is just when will this device launch via T-Mobile? An official link to a Samsung website reveals some nice looking shots of the handset, along with labels so you know exactly what each part of the phone does.

The one thing that we would have loved to see along with the pictures was the specs of the model. Right now, speculation has the device powered by a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 and equipped with a 4 inch 720p HD display. 1GB of RAM, a 5MP rear-facing camera and Android 4.0 on board. If the delay in launching the phone was due to the name change, how long could it take to print up new boxes and documentation? And that leaves us scratching our heads and wondering if the price Samsung paid to 86 the old name and replace it with the new one will be worth it in the end.
