Tech Trends Diary Verdict
The Galaxy Fame is a handset deliberately designed for the younger Smartphone generation in mind. The lack of a Dual-core CPU is a fail taking account that there is a horde of Tecno devices with much better processors.
The Galaxy Fame, however, delivers when used for mundane tasks such as running light apps and games. Even though this does not overshadow the weak performance of the device, the Galaxy Fame still strikes a flawless bargain for the price.
The Samsung Galaxy Fame is, therefore, perfect for first time Smartphone users, or for buyers on a budget.
Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Fame
