Okay, okay, okay. Samsung wants to clear up all of those rumors about their Android phones being “delayed.” For quite a while, conventional wisdom had it that Samsung would introduce a phone running Google’s Android OS at the Mobile World Congress trade show this week. Then Samsung exec Younghee Lee told the Guardian that there would be no such phone, prompting everyone (including ourselves) to call the phone “delayed.”
Today Samsung’s Kim Titus said that the phone isn’t delayed – they never planned to show an Android phone at MWC. It’s not their fault if we were all jumping to conclusions, basically.
“Somebody decided that we had said we were going to show Android here and then said we weren’t. We never said we were going to show Android, and we were never planning to. There’s no delay, and we’re on track to launch later this year as expected,” he said.
