GNEX has newer integrated modem for samsung vzw phones

[drbugsmn]

This article is mostly about samsung taking steps to increase per phone margins. One of the steps they have done is create a new integrated modem for their verizon phones, which the gnex has.

Samsung takes another page from Apple's playbook: increase margins

FTA:
ABI recently performed a teardown on Samsung

Natural progression of increasing margins is business 101. Since when did Apple invent this? Maybe they just filed a patent on this magical way of doing business so they can claim it as their own!

for having a few things going against this phone (first ICS LTE device, and a new LTE chip) it is bar far the best phone i have ever used.

sure it has it issues (mostly signal related) but honestly, it is still 10X the phone my perfect thunderbolt ever was

I Lol'd. Doesn't apple create everything first, the rest just steal it?

Agreed! It's been a really good phone for my wife and I, worth the wait. My thought/hope is that since this radio set will be used on all of the new samsung vzw devices, we should see a lot of effort on getting it to work.
