Samsung GALAXY Pro announced, a BlackBerry-esque candybar phone

Ugly.

crappy droid pro

picked up where the blackjack 2 left off...

Midrange, not a great looking device. Who are they marketing this to? Android fans will want the Droid Pro, professionals will still want a new Blackberry, which will be releasing new phones in the next 3 quarters. Strange decision from Samsung.

Oh not at Alllllllllllllllllllllll a copy of the droid pro

This phone is clearly a result of Samsung and Google's approach to the cellular industry; put out a large number of different devices on the market with varying form factors and hardware specifications, or essentially, make enough different devices to appeal to every potential market sector. Low screen and camera resolution? An effort to keep costs down; few people would pay $149-$199 on contract for this phone regardless of how sharp the screen is or how good its camera is. I personally don't find the phone compelling, but there are undoubtedly people who will find it an attractive buy. Samsung and Google do a great job with their strategy. They may only sell 5,000 or these, but they won't make more than 5,000 either. If you make 100 different devices and sell out each one, regardless of low numbers in the face of competition, your coming out ahead on the bottom line. If this thing is released for $49 or less on contract, they'll sell.
