Recently I got a chance to shop for budget android handset & as per my last update I thought Samsung Galaxy 5 is the only best handset available under 10,000Rs in India. But then I surfed a little over flipkart.com & browsed in nearby store & I found out that there are three great alternative available for under 10K.
Today I am reviewing the only one of it – which I settled to buy for because of its truly amazing features with really good screen size as well as performance. This little machine is Samsung Galaxy Pop S5570.
Android & Performance
This phone is interestingly comes with Android 2.2 Froyo which is most new smartphones are coming with these days & is an added advanatage over Galaxy 5 & galaxy 3 which comes with Android 2.1 Eclair. Its more stable with froyo & performs really well with its 600 MHz processor.
Multi tasking goes really well as we tried playing music, browsing & some widgets running in background – Galaxy pop handled with without any hassle. Phone hits up a little while multi tasking like any other smartphone could. Battery have a good performance & stand by time is high as 570 hrs (on 2G)
Typing on keyboard is a really good experience and fingers hardly makes any mistake thanks to its big screen compared to other smartphones in range of 8k to 13k.
Design & Asthetics :
Galaxy Pos S5570 is available in two different colors including white & combination of black and lusty green. Both phones look really stunning compared to the Galaxy 5, Galaxy 3 & Galaxy Flip. Its light weigh & feels really great in hands. What makes Galaxy Pop so special is its width is tapering down form top a little, which makes it unique in design.
Connectivity & Browsing Experience on Galaxy Pop
Samsung Galaxy Pop have all great connectivity options any smartphone owner will look for like Wi Fi, 3G (7.2 mbps), A-GPS & Bluetooth for high speed data usage. It has got a big 3.14 inch of display which no other phone is this price rage have & it is very handy for browsing web & apps. I personally tested it on my office Wi Fi & it worked like charm & I feel almost no difference in loading pages compared to my giant HTC Desire. (minor lag for rendering pages)

I guess you need to cross check two specs of this cell.. As far as i have seen once or twice.. Its having 3.1 MBPS 3G speed and around 384 MB of internal memory.. May be some different galaxy pop model.. The CDMA one.. Not sure.. Have a look..!!
I have samsung galaxy pop. internet is running via wifi but appliaction didnt operate… please tell me about thissetting???
The phone is awesome and is available for about 8.5 k at some places which is an extraordinary price for a *Samsung* ANDROID one.. But I will prefer waiting for 2.3 (Gingerbread) ..
And “Galaxy FIT” got the same specifications + 5 Mega Pixel Camera and Larger Screen and cost about 1000-1500 bucks more… Still the phone’s colors are A+ .
samsung product lovely
