Slim, Practical and Functional; the Samsung i5700 Galaxy Lite
When the Lite was first announced around September, several fans have started to check if they could get the Galaxy Lite on contract. No surprise there, the released specs of the Galaxy Lite create a most impressive mobile phone worth having. As the name implies, the Lite is a successor of the original Samsung Galaxy, but with a much smaller internal storage and a downgraded camera. Still, at 1GB of internal storage and a 3.2 mega pixel camera, the Galaxy Lite still stands as a pretty good 3G device.
Where it Stands
Most Galaxy Lite reviews are pitting this mobile phone up against the T-Mobile Pulse and the HTC Tattoo. No surprise there as these three devices are this quarter’s budget Android mobile phones. Yes, while not commonly known, Galaxy Lite is an Android mobile phone. Its latest photos show the logo of the Android on both the front and back of the device (looks like they want to make it clear).
The PDA database lists the Lite to be running the Android 1.5 Cupcake. Aside from the cute Android logo print, the phone features a 3 inch AMOLED touch screen up front. The images it can display are some of the brightest and clearest among its competitors.
Lite Specs
The old i5700 Galaxy Lite video shows features and specifications that still hold true, with the exception of the bright green casing and the white front finish. Though there are some folks who might like those colours, Samsung has decided to go traditional and use a matte black finish for the phone. Inside, a Qualcomm MSM7201A will be providing 528 MHz of processing speed for this Cupcake phone. The Galaxy Lite conveniently supports WiFi, Bluetooth and micro USB connections. The removable battery is rated at 1500 mAh promising long hours of usage and standby time.
