Samsung has had a successful run not only with the high end devices which it offers, but in the mid range department as well. The Galaxy Ace series which was introduced back in 2011 became an instant hit and the devices which later joined the ranks, namely the Ace 2 and Ace Plus were received pretty well too.Now the company is all set to add another member to mid range family, the Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 (GT-S7272) which will be launched soon.
The smartphone has showed up on the GL benchmark which is more or less a clear indication of the fact that the device is in the works and the launch is nearing. The Galaxy Ace 3 will have a 4 inch screen of WVGA resolution and will get a dual SIM variant as well like the original Galaxy Ace. It will be powered by a Broadcomm made 1GHz dual core processor which will be complemented by a Videocore IV GPU. The recent partnership between the companies will result in a lot of more Samsung devices being powered by Broadcomm chipsets.

Lava, the Indian smartphone manufacturer has been following a dual approach in the Indian market. The slightly premium handsets come under the brand name Xolo whereas the slightly cheaper handsets come under the brand name Lava. Lava had announced a budget 5 inch phablet back in January, the Lava Iris 501 which ran on Android Ice Cream Sandwich but now Lava is upgrading it to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
That is not all that is going to happen. The smartphone has also been given a price cut and from the previous price of Rs.9,999, the device will now start to retail for Rs.7,999 (Buy Now) which gives the smartphone a big advantage over the similarly specced smartphones. The Lava Iris 501 comes with a 5 inch capacitive display of 800×480 pixels resolution which is similar to the one found on the Micromax Canvas 2 A110.
Karbonn is becoming a key player in the Indian smartphone and tablet arena when it comes to offering class leading products at rock bottom prices. Karbonn has just launched another budget tablet in the Indian market which it has named as Karbonn Ta-Fone A34 for Rs.7,290 and it is available via online retailer Infibeam.com and the retailer is offering an inaugral discount of another Rs.440 if you use the code”KAR440″.
Karbonn Ta-Fone A34 comes with a 7 inch capacitive display which has a resolution of 800×480 pixels. The main selling point of the tablet will be the Dual SIM option it brings along with it. It can work with two GSM sim cards which makes it quite a handy tablet. It runs on a slightly older version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 but we can’t ask them for much at this price point. It offers voice calling too which makes those two sim cards all the more functional.
Umi mobiles, a Chinese smartphone maker that is foraying into India slowly has just launched a the cheapest 720p quad core smartphone in India.
