Samsung i5700 Galaxy Lite renamed Spica

in Announcements

Samsung i5700 Android phone, the handset formerly known as Galaxy Lite is now renamed in Samsung i5700 Spica. Samsung i5700 is the fastest phone in the Android crowd with its 800MHz CPU. Samsung i5700 Spica is also cheaper than the original Samsung Galaxy.

The 800MHz CPU is interesting because the original Galaxy ran the 528MHz Qualcomm MSM7200A processor. But with 800MHz Samsung Spica beats even the Acer Liquid, which until now held the crown for speediest CPU in the Android world – a 768MHz Snapdragon. Liquid still has a lead in RAM – 256MB – versus the 128 of both Galaxy phones.

Spica comes with a 3.2MP camera and support for microSD cards up to 32GB instead. The display is the same size at 3.2″ (though the press release is mum about whether it’s AMOLED and capacitive or not) as is the battery of 1,500mAh. The I5700 is a “Google experience” phone, so it’s connected to Google’s services.

The Samsung I5700 Galaxy Spica will be available in Russia in November for 1,4000 rubles (320 euro or 480 dollars). There’s no word on availability in other locations but it shouldn’t be long now.
