Samsung has given away the UK release date for the 4G enabled version of the Galaxy Ace 4 – a low budget smartphone initially announced in June, which will be arriving on shelves and shipping from Friday 17th October.
Both O2 and EE are announced to be stocking the Samsung Galaxy Ace 4 which will bring the respective networks’ high speed data connectivity to a more affordably priced Android handset. The OS of choice will be Google’s current Android version 4.4 KitKat and the Ace 4 will feature a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen with a modest 480 x 800 pixel resolution to display it on.
The handset will be powered by 1.2GHz quad-core CPU with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage plus expansion SD port for cards up to 64GB – which is respectable for an entry level, no frills smartphone. A 5-megapixel camera will be includes along with a secondary VGA camera up front among the notable features.
Up to date Android software and 4G at a low cost (predicted between £180 – £200) will no doubt be appealing and Samsung’s Ace new offering could lead the pack in the mid-market as it does the higher priced Android handsets. There is competition however, as this section of the market is already bustling with products such as the Motorola Moto G and the recently released LG F60.
