Samsung has made its Galaxy Premier smartphone official, after weeks of rumors.
The phone is a modified version of the flagship Galaxy S III, aimed at a global audience that may not necessarily be able to afford the S III.
In order to keep prices reasonable, the phone has a slightly smaller 4.65-inch Super AMOLED screen, although it keeps the same 1280x720 resolution.
Under the hood is a dual-core 1.5 GHz TI OMAP 4470 processor, 1GB of RAM and the phone runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The cameras are also the same, 8MP and 1.9MP for rear and front.
Additionally, the phone has Bluetooth 4.0, LTE and NFC.
The Galaxy Premier includes most of the unique software of the S III, including S Beam, Smart Stay, Direct Call, Pop-up Play, and Best Photo.
