Samsung Galaxy Fame Jumps Aboard Dual SIM Bandwagon

Samsung Galaxy Fame Jumps Aboard Dual SIM BandwagonEarlier this year, we brought you word that the Samsung Galaxy Fame was on the receiving end of its first firmware, and I guess it is not too long after that (a couple of months plus actually) that the Samsung Galaxy Fame will be getting a new model – one that has enough space to carry not one, but two SIM cards underneath the hood. Yes sir, the dual SIM version of the Samsung Galaxy Fame is all set to light up the dual SIM smartphone market, bearing the model number S6812.

The Samsung Galaxy Fame arrived in India yesterday, where it has been priced at approximately $203 after conversion. Known as the Samsung Galaxy Fame Duos, it will run on the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system, carry a 3.5” HVGA resolution (320 x 480 pixels) display, HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS navigation support, a single-core 1GHz processor, a 5-megapixel rear camera, a VGA front-facing camera, 512MB RAM, 4GB of internal memory, and a 1,300 mAh battery for the course.

Samsung Galaxy Fame Gets First Firmware

Samsung Galaxy Fame Gets First FirmwareIt seems that the Samsung Galaxy Fame, which is available in a couple of variants, the the GT-S6810 and GT-S6810P, has begun to receive firmware which was originally meant for the Galaxy Fame GT-S6810P (NFC). Do take into consideration that you are unable to install the firmware meant for the Galaxy Fame GT-S6810P (NFC) on your Galaxy Fame GT-S6810. Basically, the Samsung Galaxy Fame GT-S6810P (NFC) will feature a 3.5” display at 320 x 480 resolution, in addition to a 5-megapixel camera, a single-core 1GHz processor that clearly places this in the entry-level side of things, NFC support, A-GPS and Wi-Fi connectivity, all running on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean as the operating system of choice alongside Samsung’s very own Nature TouchWiz user interface layer on top of it.

For folks who are interested in the firmware, you will have to be in countries such as the Netherlands, Romania (Cosmote), Hungary, Open Austria, Czech Republic, Serbia (Telenor), Serbia (VIP) and Germany. Assuming you own the correct version of the Galaxy Fame, have you given the firmware update a go already?
