Samsung unveiled yet another smartphone in the GALAXY line, the Samsung GALAXY S Advance (model GT-I9070), with specs that sets between the popular Samsung GALAXY S and its first dual core phone, the Samsung GALAXY S II. The Samsung GALAXY S Advance is an Android Gingerbread handset with a dual-core processor that ticks at 1GHz clock speed.
It flaunts a 4-inch (480×800 pixels) Super AMOLED display that shows off Sammy’s custom skin, the TouchWiz UI (could be v4.0); and it also features Samsung’s unique lost-phone management system called Find My Mobile, “that ensures secure phone data encryption in case of phone loss, and that enables users to trace their lost phone directly via the Web or even delete the device’s data remotely”.
