Samsung releases new Jelly Bean entry-level phones: Galaxy Star and Galaxy Pocket Neo

Samsung inroduces two new entry-level smartphones in the Samsung Forum held in South Africa. The newcomers are the Samsung Galaxy Star and Galaxy Pocket Neo. Both midgets are equipped with dual-SIM capability, intelligent features and powerful performance.


The Samsung Galaxy Star is the faster device. It is clocked by a 1GHz single-core CPU and runned by Android Jelly Bean. The screen features a 3-inch QVGA and the 2MP camera will keep those instant picture-worthy moments alive.

The Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo also sports the same 3-inch QVGA display but it is underclocked with 850MHz. Running the whole show is still Android Jelly Bean and camera is still 2MP.

Both of this phones will feature TouchWiz interface on top of Android Jelly Bean - that's a premuim interface for masses! The price has not been disclosed though, but I'm sure it's in a sub-5K category.
