Bargain Hunter: Samsung Galaxy Y
Two things about the Samsung Galaxy Y for you Android Fanatics today: A bargain and the Samsung Galaxy Y Netphone Edition.
The Samsung Galaxy Y, or Samsung Galaxy Young, is an entry-level Samsung phone designed to serve the basic needs of Android users, with a price that’s also at the baseline. These are the specs of the Samsung Galaxy Y:
- Android OS v.2.3.5 (Gingerbread)
- 256MB RAM
- 832MHz CPU
- 160MB Internal Memory
If you’re about to turn your nose up at these specs, wait till you read the price of the Samsung Galaxy Y that we saw in Robinsons Pioneer.
Five-thousand, eight-hundred eighty pesos. That’s right, the openline Samsung Galaxy Y we saw at MultiCom is less than Php 6,000.
However, for nothing more than Php 110 extra, you get to tether your Samsung Galaxy Y to the SmartNet system.
Yup, you read right. Smart Communications is selling the Samsung Galaxy Y at only Php 5,990 on Prepaid, and you get to use the SmartNet network for free until December 31, 2011. Remember that though SmartNet may be made available for other users to use on non-Netphone Androids, so far, only Smart Communications Consultant Jayvee Fernandez has been able to get his hands on the SmartNet app. Not only that, there are rumors that Smart will only give access to SmartNet for free on its Netphone models, and may charge non-Netphone users certain fees for the use of the system. Thus, if you want to get the most out of a Samsung Galaxy Y as a Netphone, it’s no biggie to spring an extra Php 110 for SmartNet access, right?
But if you prefer to save the Php 110, and Robinsons Pioneer is accessible to you, head on over to MultiCom for the cheapest Samsung Galaxy Y we’ve seen so far. If you find something cheaper, do let us know!
