Samsung outs Galaxy Player 5.8

Samsung already has a number of Galaxy Player devices in the market but that did not stop them from creating another one. This time, it’s even bigger with the Samsung Galaxy Player 5.8.

Details are still a bit sketchy but some info like the resolution (960×540 pixels), 2500mAh battery, 16/32GB internal storage, microSD slot, front-facing VGA camera, and Android 4.0 with TouchWiz UI are known. It will also have WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 and 1GB RAM.

The Galaxy Player 5.8 is the 5th and largest among Samsung’s Galaxy Player line-up (Galaxy Player 4, Galaxy Player 5, Galaxy Player 4.2, and Galaxy S WiFi 3.6).

Rather than buying this. Just directly buy a Smartphone for crying out loud. – Just my cents.

Buy this and you will always get envy with the iOS exclusive apps and play the “new” Android games na pinagsawaan na ng Apple users :)

Ang daming Apple fanatics na magrereact, masyado silang apektado sa paglabas ng Android media player. Sana bago magmalaki ang mga Apple fanatics, dapat hindi jailbroken ang o mga iPod, iPad o iPhone nila at hindi pirated ang mga iniinstall nilang apps (dapat legally acquired). Peace!

If this will be below 15k, I will definitely buy this. Good for my video tutorials, web browsing, reading of ebooks and great battery.

this is a good media device..
lahat ng IOS at Android fan e nag aaway…
langya…
kung saan na lang kayo kumportable e dun na lang.
tulad ng sa IOS, organized sya pero hindi mawawala ang limitation nya.
sa Android naman e mas malaya ka, dahil walang limitation at madaming choices.
may pros and cons ang bawat isa..

Okay naman ang Samsung products eh.

Ang problema lang kasi, masyado silang mabilis (at marami) maglabas ng gadgets.

Kakabili mo lang nito, may lalabas na namang bago?
LAOS NA AGAD yung binili mo. :))

By the way, I went to Greenhills 2 weeks. Ang laki ng ibinaba ng price ng Galaxy S3. You can buy one for as low as 24k. (iPhone 4S 16gb is priced at 27k)

Again, just my two cents.

Why limit yourself to an android or an iOS only? why not use both?
Im looking forward to Samsung Galaxy Player 5.8 to replace my iPod with 3.5″. Lumabo mata ko dahil sa liit ng screen ng iPod.

my gosh, is that annabelle rama and cristy fermin nagaaway sa taas ng comments?

samsung’s okay. it’s just that i dont want to be seen in public holding the player and giving an impression that im a social climber pretending im holding an S3. the s3 design is way too much integrated IMO.
