samsung has announced the Galaxy Ace Plus, which slots in just above its predecessor in the Galaxy range, adding a better processor and larger screen.
The device was announced by the Korean company on Tuesday and will ship to customers in Russia first, beginning in January, and will then be "gradually rolled out" to Europe, Latin America, Asia, China and other regions, Samsung said.
"In 2012, we will continue to make every effort to create an easy and fun mobile experience by expanding our incredibly popular GALAXY smartphone range, which is now one of the most recognized and successful mobile brands in the world," JK Shin, president of IT & mobile at Samsung, said in a statement.
The Galaxy Ace Plus will join more expensive and higher specified devices in the Galaxy range, such as the Galaxy S, S II, Ace and Mini.
The Ace Plus features an upgraded processor — up to 1GHz from 800MHz in the Ace — 5-megapixel camera, 3.65-inch display and 3GB of onboard storage. It also offers smartphone staples including Wi-Fi, HSPDA connectivity and pre-loaded social networking features via Samsung's Social Hub and ChatON services.
Like some other lower-end Android devices such as the Wildfire S, the handset will arrive running the Gingerbread — Android 2.3 — operating system with Samsung's proprietary TouchWiz UI atop. However, higher-end devices are now available to buy that use the newer Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) version of Android.
The device will also have to fend off competition from Chinese manufacturers like ZTE and Huawei, which want to increase their consumer recognition and smartphone market share in the European market using devices running the Android OS.
Pricing for the Galaxy Ace Plus has not yet been disclosed.

There doesn't seem to be a specific section for Ace Plus on XDA-Developers....
Do ROMs and stuff from the Galaxy Ace work on Galaxy Ace plus?
Or there is specific related stuff to this?

Hi guys,
Can you please suggest me a best android phone under 30,000/- (INR) price range.
Galaxy SII (friend got battery problem in 3months)
Sensation XE (Touch screen problems as some developers mentioned in some forums)
So, i need your reviews and more phones please...
you can get S2 as it is currently the best out there , but beware of the i9100g model which has Omap chipset and not good, Get I9100 International version with has Mali chipset.
Nexus S is also a good buy , as it already is running ICS officially from Google ,
If you can increase budget i would recommend Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy Note ....

Thank you arsalan_qamar for the reply.
Based on my friend's review on SII i want to opt another brand not Samsung.
Hello,
I'm looking to buy a new phone but I can't seem to find a decent choice of armv7 devices available in the United Kingdom. I basically want to replace my ZTE Crescent with an armv7 phone that has a 3.5-4" screen and a decent community behind it so it must have root access, custom recovery and a few roms available.
So far, I can only find the Huawai Ascend G300, does anybody know of any more devices available in the UK under £150?
Thanks
is the lg o2x available? lgp990
just got official ics so will have full functional cm10.
tegra2 has great graphics at a now budget price

i know, but it is in the price range
and ics was ported to it from what i remeber, also an active acommunity available.
So I've been phoning Samsung and Google. They didn't tell me nothing as much as what phones from the mid speced phones will receive the chocolaty update. Google did say that they have given the update to samsung to choose which phones will be given the update and samsung said they are working on the phones they know will run and fully support the update. As far as I can gather phones with 1GB + Ram and Expanded storage
So to my conclusion here's a list of mid range phones that will get the update.
Galaxy S4 + mini
Galaxy S3 + mini
Galaxy S2 (mayb not so sure)
Ace 3
Ace 2
Galaxy Fame
Note 2
Note 3
What I don't understand is they say that some phone wont support the update although the Fame with Rubbish specs was made with JellyBean and that was a bigger update then KitKat

Hi
Came across an article which states that Samsung will be producing a low-spec smartphone for sale in third-world countries
According to this article, the specs are quite low...with the handset only having about 1Gb memory
It also states that this handset will come out with Kit Kat, but will update shortly after release to Android L
My question is this....how is it possible they can update a brand new unit with the same specs as the Galaxy S3..., yet still remain ignorant of the S3 itself (which is most probable the most widely used handset I know of here)
Surely if they can get Android L running on this smartphone (Android One), then we could possible port it to the S3?

Its possible when it becomes available of course. No guarantees however.
From my Wicked S3 running MIUI
I want to purchase a used Samsung Galaxy phone with 240x320 resolution (link to gsmarena search page) as a tribute to my long-lost first smartphone Galaxy Mini.
So far, based on the number of active developments in xda, the choice is between Galaxy Star and Galaxy Pocket Neo S5312. The latter has lower clock speed but I understand that it can be overclocked, while Galaxy Star lacks 3G.
How do you guys manage without it? I'm not planning to use it as daily driver ofc, but I'd like to bring it outside sometimes and do some light browsing, and not having 3G is a serious compromise.
Yet Galaxy Star seems much more popular than Pocket Neo here in xda, so I really wonder why. I'd very prefer to buy the Trios S5283, but it is not popular for devs nor is widely available. Why is Galaxy Star more popular? Which device you favor more?
