Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G launching in select T-Mobile stores on March 21, Everywhere else on March 28 3

Who's ready for another phone to be released without Ice Cream Sandwich? T-Mobile just contacted us to tell us the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G will be available in select T-Mobile stores starting Mach 21, and eventually in all stores on March 28. This is no Galaxy S II successor, but more like a followup to the Galaxy S. It's priced at $149 after a $50 mail-in-rebate and has the following features:

3.97-inch (800 x 480) Super AMOLED Screen
1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 processor
5MP camera capable of shooting 720p video
1.3MP front-facing camera
Support for HSPA+ at 42/Mbps
Android 2.3.6

No mention of RAM, but I think it's safe to assume 1GB. Either way, I have to say disappointment is an understatement when it comes to the fact that this phone is being released 5 months after the Ice Cream Sandwich SDK was released, but is going to rock Gingerbread.

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.
