Why we love it:

Dual-core processing power

The Ace 2 has taken the common formula from the original Ace and supercharged it, packing in a nippy dual-core processor and a host of other great hardware to address the weaknesses of the original - and it shows! The Ace 2 shines whether browsing the web, using apps, or playing games.

Compact size without being too small

Not everyone needs or wants a phone the size of a small tablet; the Ace 2 is pitched perfectly to strike a comfortable balance having a slim, lightweight handset (weighing in at just 122 grams) and having enough screen to work with (the 3.8 inch screen is plenty big enough for browsing the web or watching videos).

Android operating system, perfect for apps and the web

With over 700,000 apps available to download, Android is the largest operating system in the world and gives you the most choice possible. Not only that, but many Android apps are free or cheaper than elsewhere, so you save yourself a bit of cash too! Tying into Google services, Facebook, Twitter, and more, the Galaxy Ace 2 is a social powerhouse.

Personalise your Galaxy

Customise your seven homescreens with masses of apps and widgets, tailoring your phone perfectly to you. Android coupled with Samsung's Touchwiz interface gives you complete control over your phone, making it exactly the way you want it. Need to keep up-to-the-minute with Twitter or control your music at a touch? Stick it straight on your homescreen, and make your phone work for you.
