Pretty much every major US carrier decided to pick up, modify, and show-off Samsung's Android-powered wunderphōn, the Galaxy S. Yet, despite announcing it back in June, there's still one variant that hasn't been revealed: Verizon's Fascinate. Well until today, that is…

Clearly, either Verizon or Samsung have a mole in their midst, as another Verizon-bound Samsung also leaked today: the entry-level Samsung Gem.

The specs of the Gem are practically non-existent, it's just known to have a smaller screen than the Fascinate, and will run the same TouchWiz 3.0 UI (love it or hate it).

And, of course, you already know the specs of the Fascinate: take a Galaxy S, reduce the on-board storage to 2GB, and throw in a camera flash. I know I'd prefer a flash over the extra on-board storage (microSD FTW), so it's a winner in my books.

The Gem is expected to launch early September, with the Fascinate following it later in the month. No word on pricing just yet.


Galaxy S

Samsung Galaxy S made it to Brazil and it seems that along the way it has picked up a strange appendix pointing from its top. Yup, it's a digital TV antenna. Unlike the other Galaxy S versions spread around the globe, the Brazilian Galaxy S comes with ISDB-Tb Digital TV on board. Oh, and it's pretty overpriced.

As for the rest of the features, you should be familiar with them since those are common for the Brazilian and the non-Brazilian Galaxy S variants. So, you'll find the same gorgeous 4-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen of WVGA resolution as well as the 5MP autofocus camera on the back which is capable of shooting HD videos (720p@30fps).

GalaxyS

The Galaxy S is powered by a fast 1GHz processor and packs an impressive1500mAh battery. At its launch the Brazilian version will run Android 2.1 (a.k.a. Eclair) but an official Froyo update should follow up pretty soon.

The only downside of the Brazilian Samsung Galaxy S is its price. The SIM-free handset said to cost good 2400 Brazilian reais (around 1036 euro). Hopefully, the Brazilian operators will offer a better subsidized price at the launch of the phone (some time in September).

Seems that HTC's EVO 4G is no longer the only Sprint WiMAX game in town, thanks to this shiny new Samsung Epic 4G we got to play with. It features a large Super AMOLED display and an HD capable camera as well as a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard.

Depending on who you talk to, some view Bluetooth headsets as a novelty, while others heavily rely on the rich features they bring to the table in being a supplemental item to any mobile handset. We've recently managed to acquire one of LG's latest Bluetooth headsets, the LG HBM-585, and put it through its paces to find out what unique features it packs to make it stand uniquely amongst the vast offerings. At a first glance, the LG HBM-585 looks considerably longer versus the average looking Bluetooth headsets on the market, but upon closer inspection, you'll begin to notice its streamlined approach. Sporting a full metal body construction, it's dubbed as being the world's slimmest Bluetooth headset – measuring in at 3.8mm thick. We definitely adore the gunmetal finish on the headset which adds to its overall durable and light weight feel, but we weren't too thrilled with the connection between the earpiece and body – it jut felt a little too brittle for our taste. On the frontal surface, there is a Multi-Function Button which enables you to power it on/off, pickup/end phone calls, activate voice dialing, redialing, and transferring a call. Toward the rear you'll find the volume button which can even announce the battery level with a mere long press. On the opposite end of that, there is a pinhole for the microphone and the charging contacts for the headset. Thankfully, the packaging includes three different sized ear buds, two attachable ear clips, microUSB cable, wall adapter, small charging cradle, and a vehicle power adapter.

When using one of the ear buds, we didn't find it snug enough to close out any gaps – so we preferred using the ear clip to make sure it stayed tight on our ear. Fortunately you don't even notice the headset too much when you have it on thanks to its relative light weight. The LG HBM-585 employs a built-in DSP that supports noise reduction and echo cancellation, however, it already falls behind some of its rivals with its lack of complete noise cancellation. When we encountered windy conditions, the sound of it was prominent to our callers – thus making it rather difficult for them to comprehend our words. In addition, our callers did state that our voice sounded like it was in a cave with a slight echo being distinguishable at the end of our words. On top of that, there is a faint static sound in the background whenever we spoke, but it quickly disappears when there is silence. Since it's main physical attraction is its thin profile, it lacks a built-in port for charging – so that means you'll be required to dock it into either the small charging cradle or vehicle power adapter. Even though it will prominently stand tall while it's recharging and look good while doing so, you'd better make sure to not lose either of them since they are your sole options for charging the headset. One thing worth nothing with the vehicle charger is that it tucks away a USB port on its side which enables you to charge any USB handset simultaneously. The manufacturer has it rated for 5 hours of talk and up to 200 hours of standby time.
