Android Handphone - Galaxy S Blaze

Smaller Screen but under the hood is still as impressive. The spec for Galaxy S Blaze comes with a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S3 processor, a 5-megapixel rear camera, a 1.3-megapixel front camera, 1GB of RAM and support for T-Mobile's 4G HSPA+ network, which has theoretical speeds of up to 42 Mbps. These are solid specs at the moment, but they'll soon be outdone by quad-core phones and Qualcomm's dual-core S4 processors.

Those still prefer smaller size can go for this.

4. Thick - yes.. slightly 9.4mm
5. iOS - 5.1 same as all iPad2

Worth to get the New iPad?

Let's leave it to rest like Steve.
