The Samsung Galaxy Discover (SGH-S730M/G) is a smartphone manufactured by Samsung that runs the Android operating system. It was released to the budget market and was known to perform poorly due to its obsolete specifications.[2] Because of its poor specs, this device is one of the few Android phones released by Samsung to not use TouchWiz or any custom skin.[3] This device was available through prepaid carriers such as Cricket Wireless and TracFone.[4]

Features

[edit]

The Galaxy Discover is a 3G smartphone that offers quad-band GSM and was announced with two-band HSDPA. The display is a 3.5 in (89 mm)-diagonal TFT LCD with a 320x480 px resolution supporting up to 256,000 colors.[1] Unlike most Samsung Galaxy phones, the Galaxy Discover comes with the stock Android UI rather than TouchWiz.[5] This phone did not officially receive any software updates, but custom ROMs have been made for the device allowing it to run Android 4.2 "Jelly Bean".[6]
