Written by If you are not aware, Samsung recently released a “budget” version of their Galaxy range, the Smasung Galaxy Ace:
Recent reviews of this handset were good, but not perfect, many reviewers saying that this handset could not compete with the HTC Desire, or more senior members of the Galaxy family.
Well, I recently had the pleasure of playing with the Galaxy Ace and love this phone. For the price think this hard to beat,
It may not be as well specced as some of its rivals, but for the price the Samsung Galaxy Ace packs a lot of features into a small and very stylish package.
It is small, lightweight and pocket sized, unlike the Desire which could double as a drings tray! It is also cheaper than the Desire or its elder Galaxy siblings.
Its is very ergonomic with a nice rubberized and textured battery cover (it also shipss with a high gloss white battery cover if that is your preference).
The android implementation is good, and stable. I have had absolutely no issues with the phone freezing as some users have reported.
The use of Swype makes the touch screen far more viable for typing and works really well. If you dont know what Swype is then check this out!
Another thing that really impressed me with this phone is the quality of the screen and pictures it can take, and the screen itself.
This is not a technical review, if you want specs you ran find them here, its just a quick post to say do not write this phone off! Its a lot better than either the spec or other peoples reviews lead me to believe it would be.
If your in the market for a new Android phone, then its well worth a visit to the high street to check this one out.
Personally I rate this phone very highly, certainly better than other reviewers I have read, but, each to their own.
