Samsung was going to do some event this week for the Nexus S. I think they are still pushing that phone.
Strange, the event is one month after Mobilink started selling it with Samsung. Maybe they are not moving enough volume?
Price??!!
Mobilink launched the Google Nexus S, manufactured by Samsung for Google, and a follow-up to the Google Nexus, which was manufactured by HTC.
This is the Samsung Galaxy S II, the successor to the Samsung Galaxy S.
Two different phones.
Google Nexus S – PKR 44,000
Samsung Galaxy S II – ??
— This is the Samsung Galaxy S II, the successor to the Samsung Galaxy S.
Yes, that is why I think it is strange that Samsung was going to do press event This week for Nexus S instead of Galaxy S II.
