I'm just that basic screen here the specs are pretty modest there's -- 3.2 megapixel camera on the back. There's an 800 megahertz prophets are running the show. It is three G. It's also powered by -- 2.3 gingerbread. So it may not be -- -- Apple -- -- four point oh Ice Cream Sandwich.

Samsung Galaxy Appeal (AT&T) Review
The good: The Samsung Galaxy Appeal has Android 2.3 Gingerbread's smartphone features and a comfortable backing. It won't bust a bank account.
The bad: The Galaxy Appeal's small screen is hard to read, its lower-res camera lacks a flash, and I didn't love the keyboard. Its slower 3G data speeds may frustrate some.
The bottom line: The Samsung Galaxy Appeal delivers basic Android 2.3 functionality with a slide-out keyboard and wallet-friendly price, but there are performance and design trade-offs.
