Samsung Galaxy S Plus my new Android phone unboxing

Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy S Plus: A Personal Purchase with Ambitions

I'm Ranjeet from Tech2Bust.com, and today I have the unboxing of this Samsung Galaxy S Plus for my personal use. I purchased it locally for about 25,000 Indian rupees, a price that seemed reasonable to me considering my budget. The main reason I got this phone was to replace my original iPhone, which had become worn out after four years.

The first thing that catches your eye when you see the new Samsung Galaxy S Plus is the new model of the "Galaxy s" with the added "+". The previous version had a 1 GHz processor, but this one comes with a 1.4 GHz processor - an upgrade that I'm excited to explore further.

Now, let's take a closer look at what comes out of the box. As you open it up, you see the phone itself on the side. There's not much else in the box, which is actually quite empty considering how much we've come to expect from modern smartphones. The charger, quick start guide, and carrying case are the only things that are present.

But wait, there's more! If you take a closer look at the sides of the box, you'll see what looks like an earpiece with a microphone attached to it - the "hands-free earpiece". And if you lift it out, you get standard Samsung in-ear type headphones that are decent for a mobile phone. The microphone is also present on this earpiece.

Next up is the battery, which is supposed to be pretty good at 1650 milliampere capacity. We also have a micro USB-to-USB data cable for syncing purposes. With all these things out of the box, I feel like I've got everything I need to get started with my new phone.

One of the interesting things about this phone is that it has a Super AMOLED screen, which is what initially drew me to it in the first place. A 4-inch screen might seem small compared to some modern smartphones, but it's actually quite nice to hold and look at. The overall build quality feels pretty solid, too.

Now, let's take a closer look at the back of the phone to see what else is inside. We have a mini USB port for charging and syncing, which can be accessed through a small door on the side. There's also a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack on this side, as well as a power switch that's a bit unusual - it's positioned at the bottom of the phone, rather than top or sides.

Another thing you'll notice is that there isn't much to see in terms of buttons and ports. The only physical button on the back of the phone is the home button, which doubles as one of the capacitive touch buttons for navigating menus. There's also a volume rocker and a lanyard attached to it on the side.

One thing that might be off-putting for some people is that this phone doesn't have a flash - a feature that was common in many smartphones just a few years ago. However, I don't really mind about this since I've grown accustomed to using DSLRs for photography and feel that smartphone cameras can do just as well.

One interesting thing that caught my attention while unboxing the phone is the fact that there's no mention of storage capacity on the box itself. While it doesn't say how much storage comes with the phone, it does say that you can add up to 32 GB of extra storage via micro SD cards - a feature that I think will be useful for people who need more space.

Now that we've gone through everything in the box and taken a closer look at the phone itself, it's time to wrap things up. The Samsung Galaxy S Plus is certainly an interesting device with some impressive specs under its hood. Whether or not you'll find it appealing depends on your individual preferences - but I think it's definitely worth checking out further.

I'm planning to do a more in-depth review of this phone later, where I can dive deeper into all its features and see how well they actually work in practice. If you have any questions about the Samsung Galaxy S Plus or would like me to elaborate on anything from today's unboxing, feel free to leave them in the comments below!
