      Who knew AT&T's version of the Samsung Galaxy S II had a younger, larger brother on the way? Just a hair over a month after the carrier launched its flagship Android device, it's already set for another go-round.Read more

                The Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket is very similar to the Galaxy S II, but adds super-fast 4G LTE capability, steps up to a 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, and a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor.

                One of the major differences between the Galaxy S2 and the Skyrocket is LTE network support. The Galaxy S2 can only support 3G HSDPA connectivity, which is the older and slower standard. The Skyrocket, in contrast, supports 4G LTE connectivity, which translates to a faster data connection.Nov 11, 2011
