Short Review

  • The Samsung I5700 Galaxy Spica features a compact design with dimensions of 115 x 57 x 13.2 mm and a weight of 124g, making it portable.
  • Its 3.2-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi.

  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
