We are getting word in that the Samsung T659, originally thought to be hitting T-Mobile’s shelves on September 2nd, may have been delayed a week. Our Upcoming Phones page has been updated to reflect the delay.

We can now expect the Samsung T659 to be released on T-Mobile’s network on September 9th. Of course with delays there are always mixed messages, so it looks as if we will have to wait until September 2nd (the original release date) to see if the reports of a delay have any substance.

This up and coming device will feature an updated MP3 Media Player, with a MicroSD expansion option to store up to 16GB of music, video, and pictures.

As T-Mobile’s flagship Samsung Slider, the T819 came up short on call quality, data, camera, and pricing. With all of these shortcoming’s, T-Mobile and Samsung decided to replace the T819 with it’s bigger and better brother. Introducing the T659 from T-Mobile. This up and coming device will feature an updated MP3 Media Player, with a MicroSD expansion option to store up to 16GB of music, video, and pictures. The T659, originally codenamed the “Samsung Scarlet,” will have T-Mobile’s regular GSM and GPRS/EDGE bands (850/900 1800/1900) in addition to access to T-Mobile’s 3G network (1700/2100), reportedly the 2nd fasted in the United States.

What does 3G mean for me?

• The introduction of 3G on T-Mobile’s network and on their devices provides us, the customers, with the ability to surf the web, send, or receive text messages all while you are talking on the phone.
• 3G offers better signal and better coverage to customers with 3G enabled devices, such as the T659
• 3G provides customers with high speed Internet, without any wires or connecting you mobile phone to your computer. When you have a 3G device in a 3G coverage area, you are able to surf the Internet at broadband-like speeds over the airwaves. All of T-Mobile’s phones could do this before 3G, but at much slower speeds

The screen shot seen in this article seems to be from a T-Mobile computer, stating the date that this device will be available to the public, in addition to showing a slew of specification and features. Highlights for the T659 include:

• Bluetooth 2.0
• 2MP Camera (2x what the T819 has)
• Video Capture
• T-Mobile 3G
• GPS
• Multi-Shot Camera Mode
• Speed Dial
• Mobile Backup

As the newest addition to T-Mobile’s Slider-Phone lineup, the T659 shows some impressive features, including 3G and GPS, all in a thin, slick looking slider phone. Look for the new Samsung T659 on T-Mobile shelves on this September 2nd!

The T569 has been listed as coming on September 2nd for over a week on our Upcoming Phones here!
