[Larry-G]

Samsung has announced the LTE versions of their Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab 8.9 devices.

The company will show off the devices, as well as pricing and availability, at next week's IFA event in Germany.

Adds JK Shin, President and Head of Samsung's Mobile Communications Business:

With the introduction of GALAXY S II LTE and GALAXY Tab 8.9 LTE, we will take the capabilities of these devices to a whole new level. LTE redefines the user experience made possible by these devices and opens entirely new possibilities in terms of content viewing, sharing, quality and connectivity.

This is a milestone in our commitment to lead the charge in 4G mobile telephony around the world, both in terms of back-end network solutions for service providers and the development of powerful consumer handsets.

Besides adding 4G connectivity, the devices will also be bumped up to 1.5GHz dual core processors, the most powerful on the market.
