We weren’t overly enamoured of the original Samsung Galaxy Mini 2, finding it a little too small and basic. The Samsung Galaxy Ace 2, though has a slightly larger, higher resolution screen, 200Mhz faster processor (800MHz vs 600MHz), and more internal storage. It’s still not likely to be a powerhouse but it could be a sensible budget entry to the world of Android smartphones. Check back here soon for our full review.
How we test phones
We test every mobile phone we review thoroughly. We use industry standard tests to compare features properly and we use the phone as our main device over the review period. We’ll always tell you what we find and we never, ever, accept money to review a product.
