Samsung unveils Galaxy Player 5.8, pockets everywhere brace for impact:
We hope you wear baggy pants, because you're going to want big pockets to carry Samsung's giant new jukebox. The
Galaxy Player 5.8 is dominated by its namesake 5.8-inch, 960 x 540 LCD -- a screen that makes the 4.8-inch AMOLED on the closely related
Galaxy S III look downright modest by comparison. Android 4.0 and the latest generation of
TouchWiz make their first appearances in a Samsung media player here, with the spin naturally on books and movies instead of the tasks you'd associate with a smartphone. You're otherwise looking at the kind of media player you'd expect in 2012: there's either 16GB or 32GB of built-in storage, a microSD slot, a front VGA camera for those face-to-face sessions and a huge 2,500mAh battery to compensate for the display. We're still waiting on a few details, such as the exact processor and the Galaxy Player 5.8's launch schedule, although the announcement's timing suggests we may get a peek at this behemoth when
IFA 2012 kicks off later this week. In the meantime, we'd advise against buying a pair of skinny jeans.
