Samsung A877

The side-sliding Samsung A877 spotted earlier this month just made its way through the FCC, confirming its final destination on AT&T. Rumored specifications include:

  • 3.2-inch AMOLED WQVGA
  • 3-megapixel camera
  • GPS
  • HSDPA support
  • TouchWIZ UI
  • Accelerometer

A decent phone for a heavy texter, for sure – that AMOLED screen should even make QVGA resolution look not half-bad. Release date is still tentatively March 29th., a scant two days away – we’ll keep our ears open. For the full FCC technical run-down, you can check out the reports online.
