A new Samsung smartphone called as the Samsung Galaxy S Duos S7562 unveils its specifications for us to watch out for. This new device looks like a Samsung Galaxy SIII from a distance but it has some minor differences when it is inspected further. The Galaxy S Duos is  expected to be the next big thing in Samsung’s dual-SIM android phone line-up.

Features

The Samsung Galaxy S Duos S7562 features a 4-inch capacitive screen touch sensitive display with a 400×800 pixel resolution, a powerful enough 1 GHz processor, a now standard 512MB of RAM, and a 4GB of internal storage space. The Samsung Galaxy S Duos runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich but a Jelly Bean upgrade is still not yet certain.

As suggested by the name, the Duos means that it can run 2 mobile networks at a time. The 1GHz chip embedded in is an ARM v7 so this handset can handle the Chrome browser for android. Other notable features are the 5MP main camera and VGA front-facing camera. It doesn’t have super features because it will probably target the budget conscious consumers. However, this will definitely be not that cheap.

This new handset inherits the physical appearance of its older Galaxy brothers. Aside from that, it will also be positioned in the mid-range market just like the Samsung Galaxy Ace (which is a Galaxy S look-alike) that achieved large success upon its campaign in the marketplace.

Regarding the availability and pricing of the Galaxy S Duos, it is still not yet announced. We’ll update this post as soon as we get more details about the phone. My guess is that this will be pitted against the HTC Desire V and Lenovo P700  considering its dual-sim and 1GHz features.
