LG OPTIMUS NET DUAL or SAMSUNG GALAXY Y Pro DUAS

[Nalak]

I'm using dual sim mobile for a couple of years. My first was a Chinese touch (KA09), which was not bad. After a Samsung B5702, excellent phone, battery eternal, very solid and high quality. It happens that I could only count on them to talk. Because zero support for applications, are not Smartphone’s. What force me to take along with my Nokia XM5800 for everything else? I want to unify worlds and integrate everything in one terminal. Need support for SPORTS TRACKER (sessions running), SPOTIFY, SKYPE, NAVIGON GPS or similar. To be honest, I prefer the support of a known brand rather than tinkering with the generic (do not deny that to be great phones, I am just short on time and inclination. I have read regionalization issues, updates and incompatibilities with certain applications, including android market. I do not regard the Motorola as an option for the same reason, although it is very nice and expensive). I see these two mobiles LG OPTIMUS NET DUAL or SAMSUNG GALAXY Y Pro DUAS so would like your views about these mobiles if possible let me know the pros and cons of both the phones and if anyone has any of these phone please share a short review on it. So that it can help me out to chose which mobile to go for.

LG Optimus Dual Net - Powered by Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, Optimus Dual Net will probably continue to receive minor updates, but it is very unlikely to see it receives a Ice Cream Sandwich official. However, the main attraction of the phone is the dual SIM option, which is a necessary feature of India where mobile phone users to try to reduce the number of devices they need to carry around. Last but not least, the double Optimus Net comes with a microSD memory card 2 GB free in package sales. In addition, the Smartphone packs 150MB onboard memory, 512 MB RAM and a microSD card for memory expansion (up to 32GB).

The Galaxy Y Pro DUOS has a 2.6 "320 x 240 pixel touchscreen, a QWERTY keyboard, a 5 megapixel camera and front camera for video calls, plus capabilities Dual-SIM. The phone has Android 2.3, though in our opinion could use some common Android applications due to the small size of the touch screen. It looks almost identical to the standard Galaxy and Pro

The Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos is a Smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard and the option of two SIM cards operate in parallel to each other. Inside the unit operates the hardware of the Galaxy Y, which has, in contrast to the new model, only one SIM card slot. There are improvements in areas such as camera, the resolution was increased by 1/3 to 3 megapixels. The display has been reduced in favor of the keyboard, and measures 2.6 inches.

Operating system
The Samsung Smartphone works with the Google Android operating system, version 2.3. This is designed for Smartphone’s and tablets and optimized for touch screen operation. Since Galaxy Y Pro owns full-size keyboard, the operation differs slightly from that of an Android Smartphone with multi-touch display. Although, the Android interface perfectly with the phone and easy to operate. The operating system can be expanded with more than 100,000 apps from many different genres. This allows the user to customize the functions of the Smartphone to their personal needs.

Speed

Inside, the Smartphone’s processor runs at a clock speed of 832MHz. This has only one core; therefore, it should come from complex games to problems with the performance. Since the device but rather should appeal to business people who surf the Internet and write e-mails like, is the low performance of mobile phones in daily use, no problem.

Equipment
The most important characteristic features of the Samsung Galaxy Pro Y Duos is Dual-SIM slot. This is very useful if you want to combine two cheap contracts. There is a front camera for video calling and another camera on the back can be included with the photos. The resolution is 3 megapixels. The very low internal memory can use a Micro SD card up to 32GB can be added. For high-speed Internet access is fast HSDPA available.

Operation
The operation of the Galaxy Y Pro Duos differs from that of other Smartphone’s by the full QWERTY keyboard, which is similar to the BlackBerry. Writing SMS, e-mails and text documents and surfing the Internet is facilitated by the keyboard. For the display with only 2.6 inches is pretty small.

At first glance, nothing differentiates the Optimus Net of its twin Dual Net. They are the same size and exactly the same lines. More ready, you realize that a physical button "search" is replaced by the Dual Net a button "Double Chip". Another difference, a different form of chrome decoration adorns the four hardware buttons. Lines of Optimus Net are very clean, on the sides, the micro USB port is hidden under a cover on the left. Right side, only the volume keys. The photo sensor and the LG logo occupy the back of the phone. The construction of the phone is basic, and the physical buttons seem fragile.

The screen of Optimus Dual Net, is typical of a low-cost Smartphone, it perfectly meets the needs of most users, but nothing more. This is a 3.2'' TFT display, resolution 320 x 480 pixels and displays 256,000 colors. Its main disadvantage of not having an ambient light sensor, which requires the user to change the brightness of the screen according to where he is a good comfort. Of course, it's a capacitive touch screen technology, which responds very well to the touch. The screen size is perfect for Internet browsing and using the virtual keyboard very good.

Despite its class, the P698 has full connectivity. Each chip is operating in GSM Quadband 850/900/1800/1900 with support of 3G and GPRS and EDGE compatibility. To connect to your PC you can count on Micro USB v2.0 port or Bluetooth version 2.1 with A2DP. The presence of Wi-Fi allows full system Android. The GPS is in turn provided with an assistant A-GPS. Dual Sim format is very popular among the clientele Pro, and we regret the absence of the USB mode on-the-go can be very useful in this type of user.

Autonomy is a critical parameter of a terminal with two SIM cards. The Optimus Dual Net is equipped with a 1500 mAh battery, and has a range of communication for 5h 330h standby. This remains very low even for a Dual Sim. It is true that the battery capacity is already substantial, but not prevent it must charge its terminal after each busy day. Side memory, it is in the range of standard, low internal memory of 150 MB is expandable to 32GB via microSD, 2 GB included with the device. Unfortunately the memory card is not hot swap.

The multimedia application is a priori not the chosen field of Optimus Dual Net. Although Android itself does most of the job. NPC side, the terminal is equipped with a sensor of 3.15 mega pixels with autofocus and Geo-tagging, no flash unfortunately. The video recording is done, meanwhile, in VGA 640x480 which is pretty low, but at the same time saw the category of normal terminal. The music player in the proposed Dual Net is basic with no real advanced features, but we can easily remedy this by looking carefully on the Android Market.

The terminal two SIM cards were a great success. On the other hand, being Android become unavoidable, the combination of both types of terminals seems obvious. Yet few manufacturers dared to plunge. For his first attempt, LG chooses the segment of Smartphone’s, entry-level, a sensible choice, but debatable. The Optimus Dual Net is powered by a Qualcomm processor, clocked at 800 MHz, combined with an Adreno 200 graphics processor and a RAM 512 Ghz RAM. This is a substantial configuration for its class, which runs Android at ease, even when multitasking. Android is now in version 2.3 (Gingerbread) with the overlay Optimus UI (User Interface) suitable for LG. The screen size 3.2'' proves sufficient for comfortable use. Internet browsing is nice, and you do not need to zoom in / zoom out frequently to browse a web page. In general, on a screen this size, the keyboard can be handy. The Optimus Dual Net, we offer the pleasant surprise of a comfortable keyboard with keys spaced enough to type quickly without always return back. To get to the most important point, the Dual SIM functionality. Dice the home screen, widget shows the status of SIM cards, and more icons indicating network quality. This tool allows, again, to constantly remind the user of color allocated to each chip. For the blue and red for SIM1 and SIM2 respectively. This distinction allows the user to know in any menu, what is the SIM in use. The button "Dual SIM" to switch between the two chips to call any time. This system is certainly classical, but nothing less than very effective. Note that when a SIM card is in communication, the call to the second chip is impossible.

For a first terminal combining the Dual Sim Android, LG is doing well. This provided to keep in mind that this is not a terminal for a professional application, requiring a high degree of autonomy on appeal. The Optimus Dual Net is appreciated more when used web-oriented, dual mode chip and more. It is recommended for users wishing to discover the joys of the Net and Android without separating the benefits of their old terminal dual chip.
