Samsung Galaxy Grand Max With 5-Megapixel Front Camera Launched at Rs. 15,990

Samsung Galaxy Grand Max has been officially launched in India. The smartphone will be available exclusively via online retailer Snapdeal in Grey and White colours at Rs. 15,990.

Initially launched in Korea last month, the Samsung Galaxy Grand Max features a new pattern on the rear panel, a welcome change from the typical Samsung Galaxy smartphone look.

The Android 4.4.4 KitKat-based Galaxy Grand Max variant launched in India comes with dual-SIM (Micro-SIM) support, while the one launched in Korea earlier was a single-SIM smartphone.

The Galaxy Grand Max features a 5.25-inch (720x1280 pixels) HD TFT display and is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor that's coupled with 1.5GB of RAM.

Samsung Galaxy Grand Max bears 16GB of built-in storage that can be expanded via microSD card (up to 64GB). It features a 13-megapixel rear camera with CMOS sensor, LED flash, and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera that comes with 120 degree wide viewing angle lens.

Connectivity options on the Galaxy Grand Max include 3G, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Micro-USB, A-GPS, Bluetooth 4.0, 3.5mm audio jack, GPS, Glonass, and FM radio. It is backed by a 2500mAh replaceable battery. The Galaxy Grand Max measures 146.1x75x7.9mm and weighs 161 grams.

Samsung on Saturday officially listed the Galaxy A7 on its official India e-store at Rs. 30,499.

The metal-clad Samsung Galaxy A7 features a 5.5-inch Super-AMOLED full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) display and runs Android 4.4 KitKat out-of-the-box. At 6.3mm, it is also Samsung's slimmest smartphone to date.

Note: An earlier version of this story had incorrectly mentioned that Samsung Galaxy Grand Max supports LTE. The error is regretted.
