Samsung Galaxy Grand Review

(GT-I9080)     See other variants reviews Score: 60.1 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Grand is a good quality cellphone released in December 2012, which counts with a comfortable 5" screen, a great performance Dual-Core processing unit ticking at 1.2 GHz, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front-facing camera.

This cellphone is a very compact cellphone, given that it features a 5" screen and it is just 5.65" long. This cellphone has an amazing design, with a thickness of just 0.38 inches. The Grand feels much lighter than what you would expect from a cellphone this size.

Samsung designed this phone with a interesting 5" screen, and a 800 x 480 resolution, giving this phone a regular graphic quality. This screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

The Grand comes with a good performance 1.2 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit with 1 GB RAM memory. This cellphone has anice 8 GB internal storage memory and a slot for SD memory cards, enough to install hundreds of games and apps without worrying about space.

The Samsung Galaxy Grand includes WiFi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), 4G HSPA+ internet connection, that is not so fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device uses a SIM card for GSM carriers.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2 MP front side camera. The Grand can also capture videos in Full HD 1920x1080. The camera also features flash and auto-focus.

This cellphone also comes with some nice features like Bluetooth (allows communication with other bluetooth devices, computers, and accessories) and GPS, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone features an inmense 2100 mAh Li-Ion replaceable battery that can keep this phone running for several hours, although you may find yourself looking for a place to charge it if you use it heavily. According to Samsung, the Grand has an estimated talk time of 10.2 hs and a stand by time of 440 hours.

The Grand costs about $ 145, not a really offer for a phone this level. This cellphone is a good choice for you no matter if you want a cellphone mostly for internet broswing and social networks, will use it to play lots of games or want a device for work.
