The Samsung Galaxy Reverb Virgin Mobile is the latest in the Galaxy family that’s slated to stumble into the US at a street price of $249.99. This smartphone is said to be the carrier’s first device from this particular lineup.
To begin with, this handset rides into town on the Ice Cream Sandwich platform rather than Jelly Bean. The company hasn’t yet given a mention of a possible upgrade to Android 4.1, but users can keep their fingers crossed for future roll outs. To assist the aforementioned OS in carrying out smooth operations, the company has employed a 1.4GHz processor that rests beneath the hood.
A 4-inch display sits pretty on the front along with a 1.3MP secondary camera that provides self portraits and face-to-face chats while on the move. There is also a 5MP snapper which is fixed to the rear. Snap-happy users can take advantage of this highlight to capture images as well as record videos and share them with family and friends.
On the connectivity front, the company has equipped the smartphone with features like Bluetooth 4.0 and GPS. Users will be able to browse the internet, upload content and download apps, games, movies, music and much more over Wi-Fi. And if the built-in hoarding capacity turns out to be insufficient, users can always further expand the storage up to 64GB through the embedded microSD card slot.
As mentioned earlier, the Samsung Galaxy Reverb Virgin Mobile price sums up to $249.99 (approx. Rs. 13,900) and the release date is slated to fall in September this year. As Phone Scoop points out, potential buyers will be able to pre-order the handset from August 29.
