T-Mobile Announced Two New Budget Smartphones

T-Mobile announced two new budget Android smartphones they've picked up for release soon.  The pair of affordable handsets consist of the recently-unveiled Samsung Galaxy Mini and the T-Mobile Move, a compact device we're hearing about for the very first time.

If you haven't come across the Galaxy Mini before, it's a small touchscreen candybar with some decent specs.  Details include a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen (240 x 320 resolution), 3G with HSPA, WiFi, 150MB of onboard memory and microSD card expansion (up to 32GB).

The T-Mobile Move, on the other hand, is an even smaller package, sporting a minuscule screen measuring 2.8 inches (240 x 320 resolution).  Other details include a 2.0 megapixel camera module, 3G with HSPA, 150MB of onboard storage and microSD card expansion (up to 32GB).

Both handsets run Android 2.2 Froyo, powered by a modest 600MHz processor. Price for the Samsung Galaxy Mini will be $75 on contract, while the T-Mobile Move will retail for $50.  No firm release dates were given, but both should be out by Spring.
