If fame is priced anything more than 10k its a no no go

Sounds like the two good for nothing, spoiled, pampered siblings of the Galaxy family.

Another epic Fail from Samsung. They don't have any idea about what they are doing. 768MB RAM + 3.2" and 512MB RAM+3.5" seems to me like someone in Sammy didn't sleep for a long time.
 
Samsung could do with larger screens and more appropriate RAM sizes, but please stop comparing it with Micromax. Its phones typically emit significantly more radiation compared to their samsung peers (this is true in a majority of their phones) and I'd definitely not mind paying an additional 3k-4k and reduce the risk of brain tumor. The same is true for other new companies as well, most of their phones have SAR ratings well over 1.6.

Their Galaxy line up is so much confusing that its like finding a needle in a heap. SO many Galaxy product, don't they know any other name at all.

IMO, Sony, LG even give some reasonable option under 10k, like their Optimus One and now Sony is going to pile up some models for this budget.

Shame that Sammy is not even thinking about this segment, which is huge segment IMO

what we are seeing is the mid to low range phones getting downgraded with Cortex A5 CPUs instead of Cortex A9 Core with previous generation smartphones. Galaxy Grand, Galaxy S Duos, Ace Plus, Xperia J, Desire V, VC, Optimus L7. not so impressive Soc. Samsung doesn't seem to show any interest with updating their low-mid range line up. Galaxy S Advance is good but No good successor for Galaxy Ace. probably Samsung simply lost the interest in low to mid range phones because of huge competition and thinning margins.

except for few disadvantages, Sonys Dual Core Line up Xperia U, Sola,P still stands tall in mid-range with Optimus L9 giving a good fight.

^ Well you see...samsung knows that whatever they release be it a phone with a ancient processor, "most" of the people will buy it, what people see is the screen size and the brand and wether its dual core or not..They don't go more further than that and see whether its a Cortex A5,A7 or A9 etc etc.
LG needs to advertise a lot more, even TECH SITES have to feature LG phones that's the only way LG can survive Among the Un-Informed Public
