To have and Behold(2): Unofficial pics of Sammy’s Tmo Android phone leaked

Sammy’s first T-mobile Android device has been snapped before, all glammed up and shiny. But images of the handset, caught in the wild, have been infamously hard to come by. Well, if you want to see what it will look like, minus the Photoshopping, then lookie here.

Seems like David over at TmoNews got his hands on some unofficial photos of the smartphone in various states of play, including some that feature the TouchWiz interface. (Consider the shot below as a teaser. To peep the full bonanza of images, click here.)

Behold2 fans on Magenta don’t have long to wait now. November 18 is just 2 weeks away, at which point the carrier’s expected to slap a $249.99 sticker price. That’s $50 more than Tmo’s other recent release (the Moto Cliq) as well as Verizon’s Droid, and it’s $70 more than Sprint’s Moment. Most who have been anxiously awaiting this device think it’s a no-brainer, but what about the fence sitters? Are you taking the plunge, opting for the Blur-tastic Cliq, waiting to see where the spectastic SE XPERIA X10 will end up or jumping ship to one of the many Android offerings on another carrier? (Choices, choices, choices... talk about a good problem to have.)

Hi. Thanks for filling us in on your call with Tmo. I wrote "expected to be $249.99" because that's basically what the gossip is right now (at least according to TmoNews). Can't be sure, since they haven't announced it yet, so you might be right.

But there's a media event for the Behold2 next week, and PhoneDog will be there, so we'll get the official pricing for you guys, straight from the source. Hopefully, it will be less than this predicted inflated price tag.

Its a Fine product but SERIOUSLY the Prices NEED to come down if they want these phones to be commercial Successes.

Like the Behold2, but not at that price point. I'll be waiting till the end of year - or maybe the end of the 1st quarter - to see if they launch anything that really catches my eye and has a $ that matches what it's worth. If not, I'll be jumping ship after 10 or so years of Magenta. Here's to hoping they get it together.

Buyunlocked and stick with Magenta. :D Unless you NEED 3G. Then wait for the unlocked Xperia x10. It's said to have T-Mo US 3G.
