Samsung S7710 Galaxy Xcover 2 Review
It's going to be a very busy year for Samsung's mobile division. Apart from getting ready to introduce the new Galaxy S4 flagship and new Galaxy Notes, the South Korean company is all set to launch the Samsung S7710 Galaxy Xcover 2, which will obviously come as a successor to the Galaxy Xcover S 5690 that was launched back in the year 2011. It has got almost all the things and features which most of the buyers wish for!
The sophisticatedly designed machine is well equipped to fight dust and water. The Galaxy Xcover 2 is designed to endure the most rugged outdoor conditions. The phone in addition to being water proof (up to 1m for 30 minutes) also allows its users to use the camera button for underwater pictures. The touch of your finger can work in any atmosphere and this phone reacts sharply to your touches. This durable mobile device is perfect for people who actively explore and enjoy outdoor lifestyles.
The Xcover 2 has a 4 inches display with a resolution of 800*480 pixels. The phone runs on an unnamed dual core processor with a clock speed of as fast as 1GHZ which makes it fast but not the fastest. The Galaxy Xcover 2 is launched having a screen size of 130*68*11mm which is slightly lesser than the size of Galaxy S3 which has a size of 136*71*8.6mm. The phone weighs 148 grams, which is not hard to carry around!
Galaxy Xcover 2 has IGB of RAM and 4 GB storage which can be extended up to 32 GB via micro SD card slot (if the need arises). All the gamers out there, now you can play any game of your choice on Galaxy XCover 2 without bothering to worry about the memory… isn’t it great news?
Sammy’s latest technological invention; the Galaxy Xcover 2 is powered with music player “Sound Alive” technology which gives the ears a fabulous experience. The amazingly clear sound enables you to distinguish between even the faintest of sounds produced by various musical instruments. I won’t be exaggerating if I say that it has got a sound quality better than a music player or even an IPod. So all those music freaks that are cautious about the music player, the Galaxy X 2 is providing you with a complete package! So rush and grab your sets immediately! The phone would be available in gloomy colors like grey, black and silver in order to give it an executive look!
This fully loaded handset is powered with HTML5 which is the latest version of HTML browser. It can be termed as one of the most significant features of Galaxy Xcover 2. All the top-notch websites in the world make use of this latest version of HTML to witness the best of the results. It saddens me to say that the handset is not featured with a radio. Therefore, radio lovers, you will have to manage without a radio. It is also a fact that the online Apps have diminished the need of having a radio in any mobile phone.
Samsung Xcover 2 comes with 1,700 mAh battery capable of offering a standby time up to 570 hours. The handset is also equipped with a battery cover lock that provides additional protection against dropping.
The Samsung neither yet revealed any news about its launching nor its price range. Rumors are there that it's going to be launched in March 2013 with a speculated price tag of around ($350-$400).
