Samsung tease Nexus Prime ahead of announcement

On the heels of Apple’s somewhat disappointing iPhone 4S announcement Samsung chose to release this little video teasing the Nexus Prime:

If you view it in 1080p and pause playback in the few moments where the phone is revealed you can see a very appealing design, retaining the curved screen of the Nexus S, but improving on its looks with a slimmer waistline. You can also see three little keys where a camera shutter key would usually reside – let the speculation as to their purpose begin!

Does seeing this make you want a Nexus Prime if you didn’t already? If you were waiting for an iOS-powered handset to upgrade to from your current iPhone 4, does this make you look toward Android?

    The three “keys” look awfully similar to the gold plated connectors for the docks on the Nexus One!

      Someone else pointed out to me that they could be a dock connection, seems very plausible, but unusual to have them on that side of the device?

    Indeed it was canny timing on Samsung’s part, I would think a few disenfranchised iPhone 3GS/4 owners who were waiting for the iPhone 5 may well be tempted to jump ship (I even know a few who sold their iPhone 4 earlier in prep for the 5 so as to get a better price for it, they are not really amused).
