Costco begins pre-orders of Samsung Stealth

We caught the Samsung Stealth in the wild recently as it attempted to live up to its name but wasn’t fast enough to escape the speed of a camera shutter. Well, Costco has started to take in pre-orders of a smartphone which was announced at CES 2011 earlier this year – the Samsung 4G Droid Stealth. Heck, this handset has already gone through the hoops and dances at the FCC, which means it is more than ready to arrive Stateside. Well, with Costco making it available for pre-order from March 24th onwards, it has a tentative launch date of April 7th. This isn’t going to be one of those handsets that you would take leave and line up for, but at least it offers yet another alternative when it comes to 4G LTE devices. Hopefully, the battery life of this puppy will be able to far surpass to our recently reviewed HTC Thunderbolt – now that’d be something worth writing home about.
