It was only recently that the Samsung Galaxy Core Advance was recently launched and now we have what appears to be the true successor to the original Galaxy Core. While it isn’t exactly official yet, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Core 2 press renders have leaked online ahead of what should be an official reveal.
The Galaxy Core 2 features a 4.5 inch WVGA screen and seems to have inherited some design cues from the Galaxy Note 3. It’s less rounded and has a silver strip that wraps around the edges of the device.
We also have a few details on the specs, although don’t expect it to be a world-beater. It’s expected to come equipped with a 1.2GHz quad core processor, 512MB RAM and 4GB ROM. It will also come with a 5mp autofocus rear-facing camera, VGA front camera and an adequate 2,000mAh battery.
The Galaxy Core 2 will run Android 4.4 Kitkat out of the box, making it the second low end device from Samsung to run the latest version of Android. It should hit the Russian market first for the equivalent of around $280. No news yet when it will actually hit Philippine shores, but with the slew of local phones you can get with higher specs at the same price, this shouldn’t make too much of a dent on the local market.
