Its no surprise that Samsung has been very successful with their Galaxy line up. They built an excellent product with solid hardware and smooth software, and everyone loved it. They are taking this formula and expanding on it, to be exact they are expanding the Galaxy family.

The Samsung Galaxy Y Duos and the Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos are a new part of the Y Family. One is a touch screen and the other is a full keyboard, and I think that Android is in need of a full keyboard. They will be running Android 2.3, not ice cream which I think is a shame. But the one feature of these phones which stand far above the rest is the Duos part, simply meaning two sims in one phone. Both of these phones are all about the dual-SIM action, perfect for those who have two lines and don’t want to carry two phones.

The Samsung Galaxy Y Duos, like the original Y, features a 3-inch QVGA (320×240) TFT LCD screen and a 832MHz processor running Android 2.3. The Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos, as the name suggests (naming convention says Pro means keyboard, remember) comes with a QWERTY keyboard and a slightly smaller screen at 2.6 inches.

Both phones will launch in Russia to begin with and will hit the rest of Europe in early 2012. No word on a UK price as of yet.
