Samsung announced their first Android handset just yesterday, and already we’ve got someone rubbing their filthy pawprints all over it. The I7500 specs have already been announced, but here’s a refresher.

  • 3.2-inch HVGA capacitance OLED touchscreen
  • 5-megapixel camera (with LED flash)
  • GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth
  • 8GB of internal storage and a microSD card slot
  • 528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7200A CPU
  • Android OS 1.5
  • Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900Mhz), dual-band 3G (UMTS/HSDPA, likely 900Mhz and 2100Mhz bands)
  • €300 without contract on O2 Germany this July

The pics don’t reveal much, other than the photographer doesn’t know how to use flash, but it’s still good to see something other than a glossy press rendering.
