Finally, an affordable unlocked Android phone is available, the Galaxy i5500 Android Smartphone. Despite its compact size and low price this Samsung Galaxy phone runs Android v2.1 Eclair and offers almost every possible connectivity feature you need.
The Samsung Galaxy i5500, also known as Galaxy 5, is the best of the recently released corby smartphones. Running a smart OS and powered by a fast processor, this phone can handle everything you throw at it, using a slightly smaller screen than the Samsung Galaxy S. This unlocked Galaxy 5 can be combined with our global SIM cards to keep you in touch when you travel overseas. Traveling to Europe or Asia? Consider pairing this phone with one of our Global SIM cards (see below).
The full spec sheet is quite impressive given the small size - 2.8-inch QVGA capacitive touchscreen, a 600MHz processor, accelerometer sensor, 2 megapixel camera and 100 MB of internal memory (expandable via microSD). Connectivity via 3G with HSDPA, Wi-Fi with DLNA, GPS with A-GPS, Bluetooth, microUSB port and 3.5mm audio jack.
The Samsung i5500 runs on Android v2.1 Eclair
