Samsung Galaxy S II Plus review

When it comes to mid-range smartphones,Samsung seems to have decided to stick to a standard form factor and design.And the Samsung galaxy S2 Plus certainly seems to bear this theory out.It looks similar to the Samsung Galaxy S2 ,but does it offer enough under the hood to make buyers gravitate to it?

LOOKS:-Standard Galaxy fare

The Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus looks like a replica of the Samsung Galaxy S2,which is not really a bad thing.It certainenly looks very stylish.You get the Galaxy S II design with the Galaxy S III finish and the result is surprisingly good.The front is dominated by a  4.3 inch display Super Amoled Plus display.

HARDWARE:-VERY DECENT

Coming  on to the hardware,the Galaxy S2 plus comes packed with some decent specs.The 4.3 inch Super Amoled Plus display has a 400*800 resolution,which is good amd provide excellent viewing angles, sky-high contrast and reasonable brightness levels.The phone comes with  1.2GHz Cortex A9 processor dual-core processor,1GB RAM and has 8GB internal memory which can be expanded with the help of microSDcard.The back has a 8.0 megapixel camera with flash and a 2 mega-pixel front facing camera.On the connectivity side the device support WI-FI,3G,GPS and Bluetooth.It has a average battery of 1650 mAh and it may last long for 1-2 days if fully charged on constant use 

SOFTWARE:-

Galaxy Grand Duos runs on new Android Jelly Bean 4.1 with Samsung TouchWiz running on top of it.This includes Pop-up video, Smart stay, Multi-window multitasking, Smart alert, and the company's very own voice-assistant called S-Voice.

CONCLUSION:-

The Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus is rumored to be priced around Rs24000 which is on a higher side .However, it does perform well and is good option for those who don't wanna use S3 and who favor to use a little cheap S2 .Alternatively one can look at Samsung own Galaxy Duos that is a dual SIM phone available for Rs 17,500 or at Micromax A116 Canvas HD priced at Rs 15000.
