Samsung Launches 21Mbps Smartphone Using ST-Ericsson HSPA+ Modem
Samsung has selected an advanced HSPA+ modem from ST-Ericsson to support its pioneering Galaxy S 4G, exclusively from T-Mobile USA - the first 4G HSPA+ smartphone capable of theoretical peak download speeds of up to 21Mbps and upload speeds of up to .76 Mbps. The power-efficient and highly-integrated Thor M5720 modem enables the new smartphone, which recently was launched by T-Mobile USA on America`s largest 4G network, to enjoy an unprecedented combination of fast connectivity and strong battery life.
The Thor M5720 modem also supports 64-QAM technology, enabling mobile operators to make more efficient use of their spectrum and transfer more data simultaneously through the air, resulting in a better mobile broadband experience for the consumer.
