Ad Suggests LTE-Packing Galaxy Nexus Bound for Sprint

Jan 5, 2012, 6:33 PM by Eric M. Zeman

An advertisement briefly appeared on CNet's web site today announcing a version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus with LTE for Sprint's network. The ad, which has since been pulled, revealed that the Sprint version of the Galaxy Nexus has a 1.5GHz processor, rather than the 1.2GHz processor on the global and Verizon variants. Other specs appear to be the same across versions. The mistakenly run ad showed up shortly after Sprint CEO Dan Hesse announced the company's first LTE markets, which will go live by June.

Dual 1.5GHz? Nice.

That's very interesting. I wonder what CPU/GPU chipset it'll be running. Could it be the Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9/PowerVR SGX540 combo, without the CPU under-clock?

If so, being that I have the Verizon version, I can't wait for the kernel source to leak for Sprint's offering.
