Samsung has announced the Galaxy S II Plus, an updated version of its 2011 smash hit smartphone. The biggest differences between the original S II and the S II Plus are the software. The S II Plus ships with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and the most current version of Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface. The S II Plus also gains the pop-up video feature that’s available on the Note II.
The internals have been given a slight upgrade, as well. The S II Plus has a 4.3-inch WVGA Super-AMOLED Plus display, a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and an 8-megapixel main camera. It ships with 8GB of onboard storage, and supports microSD cards.
It supports HSPA+ in the 850/900/1900/2100MHz bands, which makes it compatible with the 3G networks run by AT&T and T-Mobile.
Pricing and availability were not disclosed.
