Who doesn’t like their smartphone in the classic gold colors? Samsung has typically released a golden version for most of its flagship devices, but this time around, a mid-range phone is getting the golden treatment. In Samsung India’s website, they have listed a gold edition of the Galaxy Grand 2, the phone released late last year and which had only 3 color variants previously available in white, black and pink.
The device of course is not golden all over. It still has a black front panel, but the sides and the faux leather backing are indeed of a golden hue. It is currently listed as out of stock, but possibly Samsung will be making it available in the next few days or weeks (otherwise, why put it up there right?) We’re also not yet sure if this is something exclusive to India. But what we’re sure of is that it has the same specs as all other Galaxy Grand 2 devices.
The Galaxy Grand 2 looks like its other Grand predecessors but has slightly updated features. It’s slightly larger than the original Galaxy Grand at 5.25 inches and has a 1280x720 display. It runs on 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU and has WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 and GPS + Glonass connectivity. It’s RAM is a bit strange at 1.5GB and internal storage is at 8GB with an option to expand up to 64GB with its microSD slot. In terms of its camera, it has an 8 megapixel main camera and a 1.9 front-facing one, with accompanying apps like Best Face, Best Photo, Continuous Shot and the Sound and Shot feature as well.
There is no indication yet if other markets will also be carrying the Galaxy Grand 2 Gold. For now, we’ll be looking at the India site to see when it will be available and if other countries will follow suit.
