The Samsung i5500, also named Samsung i5503, Samsung Galaxy Europa, Samsung Galaxy 550 and the Samsung Galaxy 5 in some countries, is a smartphone. As of 2011[update], it is the lowest cost mobile phone made by Samsung that uses the open source Android operating system (OS). It was announced on 15 June 2010.[1][2]
Specifications
The phone measures 108 millimetres (4.3 in) x 56 millimetres (2.2 in) x 12.3 millimetres (0.48 in). It ships with Android 2.1 Eclair operating system and supports the HSDPA ("3.5G") mobile telephony protocol at 7.2 Mbps. The user interface features a capacitive touchscreen but does not support multi-touch as found on high end smartphones. The 2.8 inches (71 mm) screen supports QVGA (320 x 240) video with a 16M color depth. The communication features include Bluetooth, 3G, Wi-Fi and A-GPS.
Android
When originally released, the phone came with Android 2.1 as the preinstalled OS. As of August 2011[update], most phones are shipping with Android 2.2 Froyo. Most carriers allow an update from Android 2.1 to 2.2 via the Samsung Kies software package, that is bundled with the phone. Froyo brought many new features to the phone, including voice dialling.
Unofficially, the phone can run up to Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread via a port of CyanogenMod[3]. At this time, this port has over 17,000 installations at Samsung i5500 devices[4].
