Samsung Galaxy Grand Specs

8.0
7.5

Description

The Galaxy Grand is mostly about having a big screen at an affordable price. The screen is not HD, it is not a high-resolution display, but instead to arrive at that price Samsung had to pick a WVGA, or 480 x 800-pixel panel. That works out to a pixel density of around 186ppi, which is far from retina and decisively mid-range, so you’d be able to see some jagged edges on icons. Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy Grand runs on a 1.2GHz dual-core processor of unknown breed, and on the back there is a capable 8-megapixel camera. Good news is there is little shutter-lag and start-up is allegedly quick. The camera features backside illumination sensor (BIS) for better shots in low-light conditions, and it is capable of recording 1080p video. The Grand also has a front-facing, 2-megapixel camera for video calling. It all runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, which should mean that performance is smooth lag-free with Project Butter.

This device is also known as Samsung GT-I9080, Samsung GT-I9082, Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos

This Phone's Better than other I've had!
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I've owned this Phone for as Little as 3 months but enough to write about it, The Phone is great, I love it, calls are clear, camera is great taking pictures and videos in HD. No complaints about that, but doesn't offer the 8GB it promises since the OS Android takes over 4GB of the 8 GB's leaving you only 4 GB's internal memory. All Apps that you download goes directly to the phone's memory not the SD Memory card also can't move them to the SD card either after downloaded. But overall is a good phone and it's a Keeper for now.

In a User's Point of View
Phone owned for less than a year

I Have the phone for last 7 months and it gives me a mixed experience of what a mid range android can offer. Sometimes it surprised me sometimes it disappoints out of its performance.Functionality wise good, Good camera.But resolution seems to be less.While playing with games ,OS got crashed 2-3 times. Need to restart the sometimes. Apart from that every thing is fine with this price.
