Samsung B5330 QWERTY candybar with ICS leaks

02 July, 2012

QWERTY Android smartphones are rare to come by, but it appears they are not ready to go extinct just yet. The just leaked Samsung B5330 proves that at least one manufacturer still has some faith in this form factor.

Leaked from some Chinese certification papers, the B5330 is Samsung's attempt at making a highly affordable QWERTY candybar device running Android. And not just any Android, we are talking Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 here.

Further details are scarce at the moment, but we do know it's going to have support for 3G as well as a screen of QVGA (320x240 pixels) resolution. Thanks to another leak - the B5330 GL Benchmark scorecard, we also know that the smartphone will be powered by an 850MHz CPU.

There's no information on the price or availability of the smartphone at this stage.

Well, actually Galaxy S can run very well ICS. You can find many websites that will guide you, in order to install ICS on i9000. The problem of Galaxy S is that it had a lot of HARDWARE customizations in different countries. It would be ok...
