When the list of Samsung devices that would be updated to Android 4.1 there was one called Music Galaxy about which very little was known. Well, now some of its specifications have just been leaked... which aren't exactly the most powerful, but that's not what the Koreans are looking for with this device.
Therefore, it is not surprising that research began on what this unknown model would offer... and it is already bearing fruit. According to SammyHub, we now have the release and specifications de Samsung Galaxy MusicAn example of this is that the screen of this model will be 3 inches, so it is clear that it has no intention of competing with the so-called "superphones", right?
At most, it will be solvent
The SoC included in this terminal will work at 850 MHz and its amount of RAM will be 512 MB. This already confirms that it will not offer the best possible performance, so it seems that it will focus on the music, especially its reproduction, as its name suggests. In any case, the use of the applications should be adequate but, yes, the most demanding games will be out of reach. Apart from the version with SIM card, it also seems that another will be launched with dual SIM.
An interesting detail, and that makes his approach much more evident, is that in the front of the device will include two speakers, so you can listen to music without using headphones or turning it upside down. It will also have a rear camera, but only 3 Mpx.
The operating system with which it will be launched is Android 4.0, but as we have already indicated before it will be updated to Jelly Bean. In addition, everything indicates that it will be presented on October 11 in GermanyThis is an interesting move by this company, as Samsung fills a gap in its product lineup, as it didn't have a specific model for music... However, do you think it's a rival to the ones Sony already has, for example?
