The Samsung Galaxy Grand II


Who said that Samsung's 2013 is done with the launching of the Galaxy Note III? I did, and I know I am wrong. This probably won't be their last phone for this year. I was already wrong with the Note 3. Anyway, today, Samsung has announced the successor to one of its most popular smartphones out there with a screen that is bigger than 5-inches. The Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 might look like it's predecessor but as you will see with the photo below it goes away with the plastic rear panel and in with the, and taking note from the Note 3, a leather-like rear panel. No word yet on where and when the device will be available. But I will have to peg it that the Korean-giant will be launching this device in Asia, Europe, and Other regions within the Holidays. Also, this device is officially Samsung's second device to run on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean right from the box.
