HD-like viewing experience, whether consumers choose to play a game, watch a movie or read an
e-book while on the go. Featuring a slim and sleek design, the Vibrant is one of the most portable
and accessible mobile entertainment devices available to U.S. consumers. The speedy Samsung
1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird Application Processor and six-axis motion sensing which uses an
accelerometer and geo-magnetic sensors are optimized for media and gaming, which gives
consumers a seamless, immersive experience while reading, watching and playing. The Vibrant is
also the latest smartphone in T-Mobile’s lineup that can benefit from enhanced speeds in locations
with T-Mobile’s super-fast HSPA+ network.2
“By combining best-selling, award-winning content and amazing hardware that brings that content
to life, T-Mobile continues to deliver on its commitment to bring innovative mobile entertainment
experiences to consumers’ fingertips,” said Paul Cole, vice president, devices and accessories, TMobile USA. “We are proud to introduce the Samsung Vibrant as the latest addition to our growing
lineup of Android-powered devices.”
“The Samsung Vibrant contains all of the premium core features that the Galaxy S portfolio offers
to consumers, including an industry leading display and powerful processor. The Galaxy S devices
make the smartphone brilliant,” said Omar Khan, chief strategy officer for Samsung Mobile. “When
you combine the Vibrant’s incredible hardware with preloaded content like ”Avatar,” along with
thousands of applications available on the Android Market, the entertainment and customization
possibilities are endless.”

working with Samsung and T-Mobile we are now able to offer this eye-catching experience to
viewers in a new and dynamic environment on the Samsung Vibrant,’ said Peter Levinsohn,
president of new media and digital distribution for 20th Century FOX Film Company.
The multimedia experience that makes the Samsung Vibrant a great option for entertainment

Vibrant, takes consumers back to Pandora, the fictional world created by James Cameron, in the
highest-grossing film in history.
