The Dell Streak Promises to be the Best of All Worlds
Robyn Currie — May 25, 2010 — Tech
The Dell Streak marks Dell's launch into the smartphone/tablet world. This late launch could prove to pay off very well for the company, as it has had a chance to see what works and sells, and what doesn't.
This bad boy features "a 5-inch supersized Android handset, housing a 1GHz Snapdragon, a 5 megapixel cam, 16GB of built-in memory (expandable to 48GB via MicroSD) and a customized UI."
The Dell Streak is set to launch in the U.K. in June of this year, with Europe following quickly after. North America, however, won't get a whiff of the Dell Streak until late summer of 2010.
