Samsung Rogue U960 and Intensity U450 go live on Verizon

As expected, Verizon has officially started selling two Samsung devices – Rogue U960 and Intensity U450. Let’s quickly describe each of the phones, despite the fact that you probably already know everything about them.

The Samsung Rogue U960 is the successor of the Glyde, and is the first device to feature an AMOLED display. Rest of the specs include 3-megapixel camera, full QWERTY keyboard, EV-DO Rev. A connectivity, touchscreen, GPS, and a microSD card slot. Supported services include V CAST Music/Video and VZ Navigator. As for the pricing, Verizon is asking $99 after a $100 rebate and with a two-year contract, or $169.99 after rebate with a 1-year contract, or $419.99 sans any commitments. Speaking of a contract, you’ll need an add-on data package with the U960, which starts at 10 bucks a month.

As for the Intensity U450, it’s a lower-end phone, coming in two color options – Flamingo Red and Grey.

    I have had the Samsung Rogue since January 7th, it previously worked great until about two months ago. my phone won’t receive texts messages until about 20-30 minutes after the other person sent them. almost all of the time i will get several messages at once, when i do receive them. any time i send a image message sometimes it will certainly send just fine and other times it might take a few minutes, hours, or a day to get to the other person. i have heard of others having troubles with their phone randomly shutting off, mine does that too. my first samsung rogue got so bad i had to get a replacement, that was almost 2 weeks ago. I am still having the same issues with my new one! I am so discouraged, i just want to get a new type of phone. i payed retail for the rogue and am so mad that it turned out to be a crappy phone :/ just my rant…
