Low-to-mid range Android handsets rarely get any official press duties. Samsung, however, decided to give four of their upcoming handsets in the category a formal unveil, announcing them in one fell swoop.
The four smartphones consist of: Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830, Samsung Galaxy Gio S5660, Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670 and Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570. All will run Android 2.2, with a varying range of features.
Samsung Galaxy Ace. Currently available in Russia, it's the better phone of the bunch. With an 800MHz CPU commanding the action, it features a 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen (HVGA resolution), a 5.0 megapixel camera, aGPS, WiFi, 3G with HSPA, Bluetooth 2.1, 158MB of onboard storage, microSD card expansion (up to 32GB) and a 1,350mAh (rated at 6.5 hours of talk time). Aside from Russia, it's also scheduled for launch in other parts of Europe, as well as India and China.
Samsung Galaxy Gio. Sporting a humdrum candybar design that looks like it came from two years ago, the handset features a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen (HVGA resolution), WiFi and a bevy of social networking apps. Availability is being pegged for Europe, China and India.
Samsung Galaxy Fit. We're not sure if the screen is curved (probably Photoshopped), but it sure looks it from the product photo. At any rate, this one comes with a 600Mhz processor, paired with a 3.3-inch QVGA touchscreen display, a 5.0 megapixel camera module and WiFi.
Samsung Galaxy Mini. The littlest of the bunch, this one gets a 3.14-inch QVGA screen, paired with WiFi, a lower-end camera (probably 3.2 megapixels) and a 600Mhz processor. Like the others, Europe, China and India are the target markets.
All four handsets will be on show at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, where they will sit side by side with their more powerful, dual-core-packing brethren.
