The Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 was
unveiled last month. It's the successor of one of the most popular mid-range
droids, but represents a pretty minor update over it. Built around a 4.0"
WVGA TFT display and running Android 4.2.2, the Galaxy Ace 3 comes in three
flavors - 3G (S7270), LTE (S7275) and dual-SIM (S7272). Depending on which one
you choose you get either 1 or 1.2GHz dual-core CPU. Samsung was expected to
launch the Galaxy Ace 3 in this quarter and it seems various USA retailers have
already got the Ace 3 in stock. You can have the unlocked 3G version at about
$300 from Popular Electronics.Negri
Electronics is
expecting to re-stock the Ace 3 soon and is offering it a bit cheaper at
$281.50. It’s also available through Overseas Electronics, but is way more expensive
there. There is a nice unboxing video on its page though. The Samsung Galaxy
Ace 3 will be hitting the UK this September. The LTE model costs £240 at Cloveand you can already book yours. Both black and
white paintjobs will be available. Expansys also
has it on pre-order, but it cost about £70 more there.

Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 is a dual sim smartphone with 2G 3G and 4G support. It is expected to come in Q3 of 2013 (any time now or in couple of months). The 3G version of the device weighs 115g and the LTE version weighs 119.5g. The device adorns a 4.0 inch display. The internal memory is 8GB(3G)/16GB(LTE) and has a 1GB RAM. It has WiFi Bluetooth and USB connectivity facilities. The LTE model also supports NFC. The device has a 5MP camera and a secondary VGA camera and can record HD videos. The smartphone runs on Android v4.2 Jelly Bean. The CPU is 1GHZ (3G) / 1.2Ghz(LTE). This device is estimated to be around 20k inr. MY TAKE: The internal memory is insufficient for heavy users ( The RAM). The camera is also poor for the price. The video player is quite good. The device is a excellent fusion. But is it worth the price? The biggest contender for it will be the Micromax Canvas4
