Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

 

The massively popular mid-range Galaxy gets an update.

Decent screen, Good camera with solid macro skills, Wi-Fi Direct

Uninspired design, Outdated OS version, Autofocus can be slow

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 review

 

Tackling the space between the entry- and mid-market handsets

intuitive, friendly UI ; impressive 5MP camera ; zippy dual-core CPU ; attractive, strong build

Android 2.3 not 4.0 ; speaker placement ; Samsung Apps offering ; limited browser

Adding to its expansive collection of Galaxy-branded, Android-filled smartphones, Samsung has reignited its Galaxy Ace sub-franchise with the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 tackling the space between the collection of dedicated entry-level and mid-market handsets.

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

 

If you're about to buy a mid-range phone, then you'll more than likely be glad of the help from sites such as Pocket-lint, because it is, without doubt, the most confusing part of the market. At the high-end, with phones like the Samsung Galaxy S III,...

Decent price, sturdy, responsive, good battery life

Average camera, very limited internal storage

We like the Ace 2 a lot. It's a sensibly priced phone that, while not overflowing with high-end features, holds its own in a busy market. The screen is good, the build quality is excellent, and as a phone, it excels at the phone tasks that often get...

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 vs Galaxy SIII vs Galaxy Note II comparison review

 

Samsung's Galaxy range of Android smartphones and Android tablets are hugely popular. But the three Samsung Galaxy smartphones we compare here are very different animals. From the budget Galaxy Ace 2, through the iPhone-rivalling Galaxy SIII (or Galaxy...

In this world you get what you pay for, a phenomena of which smartphones are a good example. The Ace 2 is a cracking little smartphone for the price, but if your budget will stretch the to the SIII you won't regret the extra expense. Choosing between...

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 review

 

Not everyone wants to spend a fortune on a top-end smartphone, and Samsung and the like - with the arguable exception of Apple - know that. At the same time, budget phones can make big compromises for price. The Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 is Samsung\'s stab...

Smooth and responsive performance, great looks and a decent screen make the Galaxy Ace 2 a Budget Buy

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 review

 

Since the launch of the original Samsung Galaxy Ace back in March 2011, the Korean tech giant has now managed to release its third version of the Galaxy Ace Android smartphone. Here is our full review of the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2. See also: Samsung...

The Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 isn't designed to be a world-beater; it's a budget smartphone that does the modern basics well. So bearing that in mind you have to say the Galaxy Ace 2 is a very good phone, that doesn't come up too short in any area, and one...

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 Review

 

Samsung are a powerhouse in all areas of electronics at the moment, and as a household, my partner and I are slowly noticing them take over our living room (with their brilliant Series 8 LCD TV), our photos (with the awesome Samsung Galaxy Camera) and...

Fairly snappy processor for a mid range phone; pretty good onboard camera.

Version of Android is pretty long in the tooth; hard to recommend at the price now Google Nexus 4 is easier to purchase.

I’ve got to admit that I wasn’t expecting much from this device, just based simply on the fact that it’s not one of known flagship Samsung smartphones like the Note or the S3, but after a week or so of heavy usage – I was really impressed. I understand...

Decent battery life; Good performance; Affordable price
