Samsung will soon launch the Samsung Galaxy Grand smartphone that will sport a 5 inch screen with a dual core processor and 1GB RAM. There will be two variants the single SIM Galaxy Grand and dual SIM Galaxy Grand Duos.
The Samsung Galaxy Grand will sail on the Jelly Bean OS (Android 4.1) over a dual core 1.2GHz processor. The handset weighs 162 grams with 9.6mm thickness. The display screen as mentioned is 5 inches will resolution of 800×480 pixels (16M colors).
Like all Samsung handsets this one too will use the TouchWiz user interface. The Galaxy Grand comes with 1GB RAM and 8GB of internal storage and with micro SD support of up to 64GB. There is a front 2MP camera and a rear 8MP auto focus camera with LED flash. Videos at 1080p at 30fps can be recorded.
Other features included are 3G/2G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4, micro USB, 3.5mm jack and GPS. The battery is of 2100 mAh capacity that should give a decent usage time on a full charge. Samsung has made it clear that on the dual SIM version users will be able to receive calls on other SIM when a SIM is being used.
The Grand I9080 design will be similar to the Samsung Galaxy SIII model. The pricing details and the availability dates are not disclosed. Probably Samsung will try to keep the handset price well within the Rs. 20,000 range.

hi gogi,
please suggest me grand is a good phone for gaming and browsing
my friend says this phone many issue hardware problem, hanging problem

Mandeep, grand is a powerful handset good for gaming / browsing. As for hardware hanging problem in most cases it is caused by the software that users had install.
hi gogi,
i am going to buy a phone tommorrow.
Samsung galaxy grand duos and Nokia Lumia 720. Which one is btr for me????
Means between grand and 720 which one is batter?????
Hi gogi,
Waiting for your review on samsung grand……Please do soon.
Sahana, its been done a few days back http://www.gogi.in/samsung-galaxy-grand-review.html
Gogi, does it have gorilla glass?
No – gogi.
This price is 21.5k
Just a query.the galaxy grand has already been launched and bought by people. Why is it that not one review is available.only previews and launch reviews are there. How long does one have to wait.
Galaxy grand is way too expensive, and not worth for the cost, please don’t mind if you are a Samsung Fan but it is really a waste of money, better go for MMX a110 or Lava Iris which are worth the money paid.
Please note that Samsung Galaxy Grand CPU / GPU details – The BCM28155 SoC is a dual-core with dual core video core IV solution.
Hi Gogi,
I used to see your reviews on gadgets before i buy anything. I thought to buy this Samsung Galaxy Grand,When can we expect your hands on review?
This product is in market.
Waiting for your review.

Which will be best android phone in around 15k range with good display, touch, ram and processor.
Sony xperia j.
I think ZOPO will be coming with a quad core 950 max phablet soon…..and looking at the reputation and history of zopo ..price won’t be above 20000….so it will be a better buy over samsung…!
Ok gogi But do you think any other Tablet is Best or in This Range(20k) Samsung Tab 2 is only the best…..coz m confused like Zync has Same features but dont known its Trusted or Not…you can understand how much your fans are confused while purchasing Cell…plz give your last suggestion which one should i buy 🙂
Hi yes the Zync is a good brand, and just check the home page there are 2 more tabs launched.
Buy nexus 7 better than other tabs under 20k.
This phone has TFT LCD screen. And i expect the price between 22 to 25k.
hey Gogi should i go with this one or buy Samsung Tab 2…..I want best 1 in range of 20k plz suggest me your opinion……
Not sure yet about the grand the price / released date, but keep tab 2 as the next option.
If the price remains under 18000, then this smartphone will be best in the smartphone market.
Gogi is the screen amoled or ips?
Sayan, don’t think it will be AMOLED but could be IPS, its not mentioned though.
Hello Sir,
I think branded mobile seller companies interested to sell only uper rich buyer, they are not lunch their product for lower class, so their price range is too high like samsung galaxy grand duos. If samsung launch these brand like micomax, karbonn, zoppo price tag it become create selling history.
For that reason lower class attech with company like micromax, spice, karbonn, lava etc which is provide maximum features in lowest price.
Atlast galaxy within 20,000 🙂 🙂
Quad-core iPhone
5 Clone to get 2GHz CPU,
Android 4.2 for $230.what do u think gogi when will this enter in indiamay be next year third quarter
when will it be launced for sale in India?
Price rumoured around 25000rs.to 29000rs. If i going wt zopo zp 900 max phablet 5.7 inch also coming wt jelly bean i saved around 9000 to 13000rs. Ha ha ha!
Complete spec for satisfaction but price what is ?
well LG,S’SUNG etc. must maintain a phone like this or “half-power of NOTE’2” to occupy low priced rebranded phone sector BUT must maintain 15k price. >15k simply washed out by mtk6588 rebrands.but as usual they launch at 17k to 18k which is immediatlly rejected or very few sales. gr8 BRANDS shakeing by rebrands & looseing market but dont want to change their style which leads to COMPLETE FALL by mid’2013 like iphone 5.
Gogi sir, all the features of this phone are good ,we cant expect quad core at 20k price range but for 5 inch display 400*800 resolution with 186 ppi is really good enough? 1280*720 with 342 ppi is suitable for 5 inch display , so my question is 400*800 with 186 ppi gonna affect picture and video clarity ? And is this phone have superamoled or superamoled plus?
Even though Samsung launching dual sim first , don’t xpect price to be less than Rs.25k. Otherwise no one will buy Galaxy S2, Galaxy Advance, and SGmini and SGX S Duos.
Good to see budget phones from samsung…at the market will be very compitative in future….so good going samsung…
Hey Gogi , how soon can we expect this phone in stores/online ?
I think before March.
Thanx for the information Buddy 🙂
They will be priced above 25K…….
Price within 20k …
🙂
Well this is estimated (not confirmed) but lets see.
Oh man!
If the price tag remains under 18K….then this thing will bring a revolution in the smartphone market. As Most of the Indian population falls under middle class range, its price tag would be the only thing which will be the hot topic. Else, you don’t have to enquire for the brand like Samsung!
Looks Good. Any idea of the pricing front?
Micromax Zindabad….!!
#Samsung, STFU Please..!!
Till then, we would get a Quad Core Phone with 1GB RAM & probably a 12MP Sensor. By Micromax Karbonn or Xolo.
Seeing specs it looks like competition to LG Optimus L9 so even I assume price should be below 20k.
Hello sir, your website is awesome, but i have an confusion that from where we can buy this smartphone in cheap rate because your are talking that the price of this smartphone is around Rs. 20000, but i want this smartphone in less than rs. 20000 and sir i am following your site too 🙂 🙂 🙂
What will be the Price of the phone…???
