Overclocking

The dual-core Cortex A9 runs at a speed of 1.2 GHz by default, but it can be overclocked to 1.3 GHz without the need of a custom kernel. This can be effected by rooting and then using a CPU clock speed modification app.

Special editions

In South Korea, Samsung launched a variant of the product with a quad-core CPU at a much lower price. In India, Samsung also launched the Samsung Galaxy Grand with a free flip cover, 50GB Dropbox Storage, free My Services and a Dual-SIM slot.

Reception

The Economic Times reviewed the Galaxy Grand and said in their verdict: "Great for multimedia and comes with the promise of reliable after-sales service; but otherwise isn't worth twice the cost of budget phablets with similar specs."^[6]
