The Samsung Galaxy Reverb Virgin Mobile price and release date details are out and the smartphone that was first introduced in August, will hit store shelves later this month. The phone is now up for pre-order through the official company website.
A 4-inch WVGA multi-touch screen dominates the handset’s front panel, while the rear side sports a 5MP camera complete with LED flash and the ability to record HD videos. A 1.3MP front-mounted webcam has also been provided to facilitate video conferencing over the web. Much like its other recently introduced Galaxy counterparts, the Reverb treats users to Ice Cream Sandwich too. It has been embedded with a 3.5mm audio jack and an expansion slot to increase the memory by up to 64GB using a microSD card.
“We keep adding awesome new services and devices to our lineup and with our commitment to customers to deliver products with ‘A Higher Calling,’ this new Samsung device is no exception. Samsung has always been a strong partner for Virgin Mobile; Intercept was the first Android we made available on our Beyond Talk plans, in 2010. Getting a Galaxy device now truly rounds out our offering,†quoted Mark Lederman, director-Virgin Mobile USA.
The 3G device with dimensions of 122.4 x 64.2 x 168.82 millimeters, acquires multitasking properties from a 1.4GHz processor and 768MB RAM. It is deployed with Bluetooth and GPS in addition to Wi-Fi for wireless access to web, wherever there’s an available hotspot. A 1700mAh removable battery rests under the hood to provide talk time of about 7.52 hours.
The Samsung Galaxy Reverb Virgin Mobile price and release date stand at $249.99 (approx. Rs. 13,850) and September 19, respectively. It is now available for pre-order and requires users to sign up for the carrier’s monthly plans starting at $35 (approx. Rs. 1,940) per month.
