Samsung announces Galaxy S Advance

This didn’t take long. Barely hours after we reported the leak of Samsung’s Galaxy S Advance, the world’s second largest smartphone vendor in the last quarter officially acknowledged its existence. The specs are the same as it was reported earlier – a curved 4-inch WVGA Super AMOLED display, a 1GHz dual-core processor, 5.0 MP rear and 1.3 MP front cameras, 8GB/16GB internal memory with 768MB of RAM and a microSD memory card slot. Samsung remains mum on the pricing but it will be first available in Russia, followed by a gradual roll-out in CIS countries, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia. Hit the break for complete specs.
