Both of the above handsets are delayed as critics predict due to the early launch of Samsung’s own Rex Series of handsets which run on non-Android platform. These two newly launched Android smartphones will now stand with their other Galaxy brothers named Galaxy Pocket, Galaxy Music Duos, and Galaxy Y Pro Duos which are also low priced entry-level smartphones offered by Samsung.
