Dell Streak hitting AT&T on July 19th?

on July 15, 2010 – 2:00 am2 Comments

A few months ago, Dell CEO Michael Dell confirmed that the Dell Streak will be hitting AT&T later this Summer, but Micheal didn’t gave any further information about the release date, but today BGR did. Folks over at BGR heard from their reliable source that the Dell Streak is going to hit AT&T on July 19th. If you guys know one thing that the Samsung Captivate (AT&T Samsung Galaxy S version) is going to hit AT&T on July 18th. Dell Streak is more than a phone, actually it’s not a phone, it’s a MID (mobile internet device). Have a look on the specs of Dell Streak:

  • 5″ TFT capacitive touchscreen
  • 5MP camera and a secondary VGA for video calling
  • Dual LED Flash
  • GPS
  • Bluetooth
  • USB port
  • Wi-Fi-802.11 b/g
  • 16 GB Internal memory
  • Up to 32 GB expandable memory via MicroSD card
  • 3.5 mm headset jack
  • Android OS, v1.6, upgradable to v2.2 (Froyo)

As you can see the phone is running Android 1.6 which is a very old version, but Dell will be launching the Android 2.2 or 2.1 for the Dell Streak soon. That’s the only point in which Captivate is better than Dell Streak, because the Captivate is running Android 2.1, and Samsung will launch the Android 2.2 for all Galaxy S later this year.

Well, tell me which one you choose? Would you choose the Captivate over Dell Streak, or would you choose both over the iPhone 4?

    The only thing I don’t like about the Captivate is that it does not have a built-in LED flash. It would have been nice to see that on there. Also I have been thinking about choosing a Dell Streak over the Iphone 4 but may wait to see how the Streak performs with Android 2.2. The European reviews of the Streak were not so great perhaps due to the older OS version.

    Either phone is better than the iPhone 4.
    At least holding them does not cause you to drop calls.

    I’ve been waiting for the Streak for months, it seems to be the perfect device, big enough to be really usable for video, web & email, nav, etc.(unlike the diminutive iPhone I’ve had for 2 years) but not so big it isn’t portable(like the ipad).

    It’s front facing camera will work for video calls when not on wifi and will work to talk to people using skype on a pc(unlike the iPhone 4).

    Also, android’s Google Voice integration means free calling, no more minutes used at all… ever.
