Samsung is going to announce the low-end Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 at MWC in February. This smartphone is mainly for budget smartphone users who want a device that is both water and dust resistant. Durability is the main selling point of this phone.

The Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 will feature the following specs:

• 4-inch TFT 480 x 800 WVGA display
• 4GB internal storage with a microSD card slot for expandable storage
• 5MP rear-facing camera
• 0.3MP front-facing camera
• Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
• 1,700 mAh battery

Again, this phone is mainly for budget smartphone users. It’s a pretty low-end device and it’s strange that Samsung is still manufacturing devices like this. Maybe they should take a page out of Sony’s book and stop (or at least slow down) the manufacturing of low-end handsets.

I would ask you what your thoughts on this device are… but I’m pretty sure they’ll mainly be negative. I’m know my thoughts on this device are.
