The Samsung Charge Verizon by Samsung delivers exactly what you’d expect from the collision of Droid power and Verizon 4G LTE network speeds. It runs a fast 1GHz Hummingbird processor and boasts a 4.3″ Super AMOLED Plus screen–it’s the fastest and most powerful Droid ever created, and the first Droid built for Verizon’s 4G LTE network.

The Samsung Charge Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network allows you to download photos, apps, and games in seconds and entire movies in minutes. LTE (or Long Term Evolution provides significantly increased upload and download speeds over 3G networks, as well as significantly reduced latency (or lag time). Verizon Wireless expects 4G LTE average data rates to be 5-12 megabits per second (Mbps) on the downlink and 2-5 Mbps on the uplink in real-world, loaded network environments.

With these blazing fast speeds, you’ll be able to stream HD movies without the annoyance of constant pauses to buffer the video stream–as well as quickly download HD-quality movies right to your phone in minutes. Additionally, you’ll be able to download a new song file in about 4 seconds or upload a photo to your favorite social networking site in about 6 seconds.

Verizon users rejoice! Your Droid could very properly be working on a 4G network soon enough.

Maybe you have got seen the newest commercials from Verizon Samsung Droid Charge, making a 4G network look a bit like some form of black magic despatched to us from beyond the universe (hint: I felt they have been a bit over the top!). When you have not seen them, it’s best to seek for them for a bit of a chuckle – although they were not meant to be funny.

This text is to not trash Samsung Charge Verizon however! I’m really glad to see them including 4G to several cities across the country. 38 cities have already got 4G with Verizon, and the corporate plans to add to that quantity considerably in 2011, getting it as much as 140. Not dangerous! As well as, Verizon hopes to cowl two-thirds of the US with 4G by the top of 2013.

In case you are questioning what cities are going to get the brand new, improved service, Droid Life has an inventory of the possible places that can get the brand new service first. I was sad to see my metropolis (Oklahoma City) obtained beat out by Tulsa! Nevertheless, with the “two-thirds of the nation” plan, I ma certain it will likely be right here soon enough.

Take note, nevertheless, that not all devices will work on a 4G network. Even in case you are in a 4G area, except you’ve gotten a phone that’s 4G enabled, you’ll still be running 4G.

I would recommend this to a friend!
“This is my first Droid phone. I was holding out for an I5 but just could not wait. Really like the look and feel of this phone. Very fast on 4g network. Apps install quickly. Color is great. I would prefer better speakers. Both of the available Samsung docks look and work great. Battery life seems to be good for a phone of this type. 4G is now on in Akron, Ohio. Thanks Samsung Charge Verizon !”
