Samsung Galaxy S Blaze Q leaks in August 15th-dated press shot, keeps terrible name

[![Samsung Galaxy S Blaze Q leaks in August 15thdated press shot, keeps terrible name][1] ][2]

Remember Samsung's Galaxy S II [Epic 4G Touch][3] for Sprint? Think that name was a mouthful? Well here's a press shot of -- wait for it -- Samsung's T699 aka. Galaxy S Blaze Q, a QWERTY slider for T-Mobile that's been [leaked before][4]. Beyond the [terrible name][5], the August 15th mention on the screen appears to confirm the previous launch date rumors. Spec-wise, the phone is expected to pack a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm [Snapdragon S4][6] with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage. There's also mention of 1080p video capture and a 720p display -- the latter being unlikely in light of the large amount of bezel surrounding the screen (Samsung's smallest [HD Super AMOLED][7] display is 4.65-inches across). Our guess is that T-Mobile's just complementing Samsung's existing [Galaxy S Blaze 4G][8] with a mid-range QWERTY slider, but we'll find out soon enough.
