Two more budget friendly handsets namely the Samsung Galaxy Young and Samsung Galaxy Fame will soon hit the Indian markets. Both the handsets sail on the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS. The pricing details and availability dates are not known.
Both the handsets looks almost similar, the noticeable difference is curvier top and bottom on the Galaxy Fame (check the image below). Since these are low cost handsets both come with HVGA (480x320p) screen resolution. The handsets will come in 2 variants single SIM and dual SIM.

There is built in 4GB internal storage plus micro SD slot that supported card of up to 64GB. Galaxy Young also shows off a 3MP camera on the rear side without flash.
