Humberto Saabedra

The first images of the successor to the Samsung Moment in the Samsung Intercept have surfaced ahead of its launch next week.

The device will improve upon the Moment with the bodyshell design taking cues from Samsung’s GSM smart device lineup and a capacitive touch display going from 320×480 on the Moment up to 800×480 resolution, improved hardware QWERTY keyboard, microSD expansion slot and Android 2.1.

The unit shown in the image was purchased from a Best Buy Mobile location for $99.99, with the pricing reflecting its position as a midrange Android device in Sprint’s lineup.  The device will be launched on July 11th across all sales channels.
