Yes, it’s now officially official, and it’s going to Verizon’s LTE. The 4.3-inch phone is powered by the 1GHz Snapdragon and running on Android 2.2. Obviously it’s also equipped with the latest 4G technology, LTE. The 4.3-inch is a no-joke, as the Super-LCD display will not lose out much to Samsung’s Super-AMOLED. There’s an 8-Megapixel camera behind that’s capable of HD video recording, with DLNA and Dolby Surround Sound all present. It’ll be exclusive to Verizon to push their LTE technology, thus no announcement for global market. Probably a new name for the same model.
