Samsung has announced one of the mid-range phones in India; previously there have been rumors. But now, Samsung has now launched a phone by the name of Galaxy Grand Duos. The phone has a dual-SIMs option and is updated by Android 4.1.2 version.

The phone's screen is might 5-inch, but, one might not enjoy the benefits of such a large screen as it doesn't play videos neither 1080p nor 720p quality. It plays only old-fashioned 480 x 800 quality videos, which is quite a big drawback of the phone. Other features of the phone include a 1.2GHz process, 1 GB RAM, 8 GB internal storage, eight mega pixel rear camera and 2 mega pixel front camera.

The phone costs Rs 21000 or $420 which is really high with respect to phones having these features, such as Nexus 4 which costs only $299. The above stated drawbacks make the price of the phone look even higher.
