It looks like the low-budget smartphone Samsung Galaxy Mini is about to reach Canadian shores soon via Mobilicity.
The phone has just been spotted by the guys over at MobileSyrup, but no release date or pricing options have been revealed yet.
Apparently, the Galaxy Mini was spotted at a Samsung rock concert in Toronto, inside one of the demo booths, stamped with the “Coming Soon to Mobilicity” tag.
Samsung Galaxy Mini has already been launched on the market in multiple regions, including Europe and United States.
However, the phone is known as Samsung Dart in the U.S. and is available via T-Mobile, whereas in India the phone goes by a different name, as well, Samsung Galaxy Pop.
Although the phone is entry-level smartphone, the Canadian version will be delivered with an improved 3-megapixel camera, instead of the Dart's 2-megapixel photo snapper, which is not available at T-Mobile.
Furthermore, Samsung Dart is equipped with a low-performance ARM 600MHz processor and runs on Android 2.2 Froyo, with slim chances to be update with a newer Gingerbread version of the operating system.
In addition, the Galaxy Mini features a small 3.14-inch QVGA capacitive touchscreen with 262K colors support, 240 x 320 pixels resolution, accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate, TouchWiz v3.0 UI, Swype text input method and proximity sensor for auto turn-off.
Even though it's a low-budget phone, Galaxy mini features HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n connectivity, along with 160 MB of internal memory and microSD card for memory expansion (up to 32GB, 2GB card included).
Other key features of the smartphone include 3.5 mm audio jack, DNSe sound enhancement, Stereo FM radio with RDS, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP support, microUSB 2.0, GPS with A-GPS support, as well as Digital compass.
The phone is powered by a standard Li-Ion 1200 mAh battery that should provide up to 570 hours of standby time or up to 9 hours and 30 minutes of talk time.
