Samsung today announced the Galaxy Ace 3, a new Android smartphone that helps fill out the low-cost portion of its portfolio. The Ace 3 features a 4-inch WVGA LCD screen and is powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor.
It runs Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and comes with many of the same software features found on Samsung’s higher-end device, such as S Translator, Smart Stay, S Voice, and S Travel. The Ace 3 has a 5-megapixel main camera with 720p HD video capture and software features such as Best Shot, Sound & Shot, and Best Photo. The Ace 3 also has a VGA user-facing camera, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth 4.0, 4GB of internal memory, and support for microSD memory cards.
The Ace 3 will be sold in single- and dual-SIM versions, as well as 3G-only and LTE versions (the LTE version has a 1.2GHz processor and 8GB of memory). Availability and pricing will vary by market.
