Within the Samsung Galaxy family there are also terminals that combine a touch screen with a full QWERTY keyboard. This is the case of the Samsung Galaxy Chat. And the company has put the batteries to update its version of Android, which is already available for download in Spain for computers in free format, for now.
Samsung has a good streak of updates on its smartphones. What's more, the intentions of the following months are already known and the teams that will receive Android 5.0 have been known. Among them are the Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S3, and Samsung Galaxy Note 2. However, in the middle ranges, updates are also coming, as is the case with the Samsung Galaxy Chat, a team that was presented in July 2012 and offered a terminal with a physical keyboard and touch screen. And all this running under the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich version.
However, from the SamMobile portal they have warned that in Spain equipment that has been acquired in free format can already be updated. And the version that has been released is called Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. What will be achieved with this version? Above all, improvements in the stability of the operating system fixing some bugs, as well as new functions and performance improvements thanks to Project Butter.
Therefore, if you are a user of this terminal, you will only have to connect the Samsung Galaxy Chat to the computer through the Samsung Kies program and follow the instructions. Although, it is also possible that you can proceed without cables and the update is downloaded, directly, on the computer. If this last option is the one that is decided, it should be taken into account having enough battery (more than 50 percent) and downloading through WiFi.
Also, this team offers a three-inch diagonal capacitive multi-touch screen and from where you can access all the menu icons. However, and flaunting its name, it is a device that is indicated for those users who are strong on the key and are regulars in instant messaging services such as email. And what better than to do it from a complete physical keyboard.
Meanwhile, its power is given by a single-core processor with a frequency of 850 MHz together with 512 MB of RAM. Of course, information can be stored both in its internal memory of four GigaBytes, as well as make use of MicroSD memory cards of up to 32 GB. That way you can take all your music, photos or documents anywhere.
Perhaps, being a terminal focused on messaging, Samsung neglected the photographic part a bit. And it is that this Samsung Galaxy Chat offers a camera with two megapixels of resolution and the possibility of recording videos in VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels).
Now, you can connect to the Internet in several ways: through WiFi points or through 3G networks. There is also the possibility of connecting with different accessories on the market that are compatible with Bluetooth technology and function as a GPS, thanks to the integrated receiver. Nor should we forget to be able to listen to radio stations, as an FM tuner is also included that will work as long as headphones that function as an antenna are connected.
