Samsung is the phone maker behind the Google Nexus Two Android phone, according to a new rumour on the web today. Android and Me reports that multiple sources have confirmed that Samsung’s press event scheduled for 8 November in New York City will see the unveiling of the first Android Gingerbread phone – no laggy software skin, just a pure Google OS and Samsung’s ludicrously powerful hardware.

If true, we can’t wait to see the Google Nexus Two. HTC made the first Nexus phone with stock Android, but Samsung has much better access to stunning Super AMOLED screens, so we’re hopeful it would include one, like the Samsung Galaxy S and Omnia 7. The report does not confirm rumours that Carphone Warehouse will be the exclusive stockist in the UK, but we’ve got just over a week to wait, so we’ll see either way soon. Is this going to make you think twice about a HTC Desire HD?

    If True the PLEASE google TELL Samsung to put a flipping LED notification light on the phone & NO bigger than 4inch screen.

      No bigger? Bring on 4.3-inches, I say!

    Still can't get over the cheap look of the Galaxy S (just looks like an iPhone knock-off to me) but love the Super AMOLED so this could be promising. Not sure it will hold me back from getting the Desire HD though; 4.3 inches makes it a nice replacement to my current iPhone and sat nav combined :)

    Carphone Warehouse exclusive may also mean only available on contract at least for the first few months :(

    Shame if it's true. it's unusual for non-HTC phones to really catch my attention.
