Hi guys ! Im just made a registration to XDA and i wanted to ask you something. Should i buy Galaxy Grand or the new Grand Neo ?I am confused because of the processors and the cameras.I saw grand neo reviews on youtube and so far the people say that grand duos is better.Thanks for reading and please don't hate on my question because as I said I'm new here
Get grand duos better dan grand neo
Grand duos also have higher antuntu benchmark score dan grand duos
Only diff between grand duos and neo is d quadcore processor

I am currently using i9060 neo and I can say it is slightly faster with a smoother gaming experience than galaxy grand. Only thing is no dev for the neo. Phone is awesome though.

yeah, grand neo (gt-i9060) lacks on dev... it's sad cuz kitkat and android L are officialy here

That depends, Grand resolution is quite low (480x800) on a 5 inch screen and don't have SAMOLED screen (Higher energy consumption + color looks dull compared to SAMOLED). But Grand offers dual SIM support GT-I9082 and screen is larger.
For S2+ 480x800 resolution is acceptable on a 4.3 inch screen and have a SAMOLED screen, which makes the color looks more vivid.
But if you upgrading from cheap phones like old Nokia 5800, Grand will be a good choice for you and you will not realize the screen is low-end. But from S3 to Grand, you will realize that's a huge downgrade, except Grand memory management is good. (Low RAM usage, but also depends on how many apps you have)

cm10.1 has good battery backup
i suggest don't!! Its low end as this section don't have more developers to get separate section! s2 plus is far better and gives rich feeling! @panda00 can give more information
Well... my dad owns a Galaxy Grand, and I own an S2 Plus. Had experiences with both phones... They're pretty much equal. The Grand has two things in its advantage... multiwindow, and a big screen. The S2 plus however, has a much sharper screen (Super AMOLED, much higher ppi too), NFC, and it's much cheaper! Also it is a better and more premium looking phone.
If you can save a few bucks and compromise external storage then buy a nexus 4

In video of grand vs mega 6.3 ........ grand look like small, tiny phone :laugh:
Thank you all for the answers, but I gave the Galaxy Grand Duos. Now I'm in doubt between the Xperia S and Optimus 4X HD. And the Galaxy Mega also seems to be a good competitor. It is unfortunate that in the country where I live, all these phones are very expensive
Where u live? And go for mega 5.8

mega is just too big ... not suitable for daily use....
Hi guys.. im planing to buy grand or s3.. i like dual sim option in grand.. i read the all specs changes between the two phone.. but my main purpose is buying a phone is game play without lag.. good batery life... xda development support , future samaung software updayes and usability.. can i expect all this from granda?? Can someone explain me?? I lv this phone.. but i like to listen from you guys coz u guys are not average users
And another thing... if i use cuatom rom can use dual sim option?
GRAND is midrange phone so samsung will not provide future major updates like they give their S or Note series and also development support on samsung galaxy S series more and all apps compablity also better in S series phones. Regarding build quality grand has better design like samsung S4 but in terms of hardware its almost like samsung galaxy S2 good for daily using and playing HD games in low or mid quality. And dual sim features are still not compatible with custom Roms.
I charge my grand 2 times daily, recently updated on jb 4.2.2 most of time I play Asphalt 8 and use net, before rooting my grand asphalt 8 only running on very low and low graphics options but after rooting I changed my ph model no to S4 model now its running Medium and high setting.

I agree with Suraj007 on the fact that development is more on the S series legacy devices like S3
But for everyday use my Grand's battery life easily goes over 20 hours, if I'm not playing games all around the clock of course
Hardware wise, the screen for S3 is AMOLED and Grand uses TFT, so upto user choice which one is preferred. In my opinion, S3 has a better screen, resolution and ppi, but unless you are stickler for those kind of things, you won't notice it. S3 also has a better Processor compared to Grand but the difference isn't that vast. But in case of looks, Grand beats S3 any day as it looks close to Note2 and S4 devices while S3 just looks aged
As Suraj007 pointed out, some custom ROMs don't support dual sim functionality, but only those based on CM10 have issues, that are in process of being resolved. The most popular and widely used stock based-ROM (GENNXT ROM in my signature) for Grand supports Dual Sim without any issues
As for updates, both S3 and Grand Duos are in the list of possible devices to receive the 4.4 KitKat update in the upcoming months
I got both Grand n S3
And I can tell you that only major difference is Screen ....
Nothing else ...
Camera is same on both but pics will look much more sharp on s3 bcoz of screen resolution 720p
Games run equally good on both devices ...
But games compatibility is better on s3
Once yu hold the device the look n feel is better on s3 ... s3 can be used in one hand
Grand is better in battery backup ... if u know how to preserve the battery .... 10% better not much
Grand has 4.2.2 now official .... samsung yet to release 4.2.2 or 4.3 on s3 .... still its running 4.1.2
But s3 has much better development ....
Buy S3 .... the xtra cost is worth the money.

i suggest go for s4 mini duos it is good qcom processor,1.5gb ram, may be getting cm 10.1 official as it's lte version already has official cm10.1 .
and i think qcom is better for development always...
It depends because grand is a mid range phone I have been using it for a year and I haven't faced any problem till now there's no lag in games like asphalt 8 fifa 14 etc but I would prefer s3 as it has 1.4ghz quadcore snapdragon processor and its gameplay is also great!! It depends on your choice just go for the phone with the best features as both of these phones have great gameplay!!
