Mobile Summary:
Samsung galaxy Y Duos is the forerunner for all affordable Android Dual SIM phones in India.
It is a good phone packed with right features at right price.
Android OS, v2.3 (Gingerbread) is old by now, but it serves the purpose and so is the 832 MHz processor.
Dual SIM (GSM + GSM) with Dual Standby is comfortable to use. 3.14 inches TFT capacitive touchscreen is lacking in pixel resolution and could irritate your eyes if you keep a very bright display.
Talk time of up to 9 hours is sufficient and so is the 3.2 MP camera. Secondary camera is lacking though.
We would say that 384 MB RAM is not enough and is the lack of sufficient inbuilt storage. microSD storage up to 32GB can make up for the lack of internal storage.
3G Data Transfer at HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps is pretty good and Wi-Fi hotspot also works well.
Overall we assess that Samsung galaxy Y Duos is a value for money phone.
Compare Samsung Galaxy Y Duos with HTC Explorer, Samsung Galaxy Pocket and Sony Xperia Tipo Dual
