Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos is a dual SIM active Smartphone. One the other hand, Samsung released two different version of Galaxy Y as Galaxy Y Duos and Galaxy Y Pro Duos. I have written a post comparing Galaxy Y Duos and Galaxy Ace Duos. In this post I will compare Galaxy Y Pro Duos and Galaxy Ace Duos. The first difference you will notice is the difference in working principle of the dual SIMs. Ace Duos comes with dual SIM Active service and contains one CDMA and one GSM SIM card support whereas Galaxy Y Pro Duos is a dual SIM Standby phone and supports GSM network in both the SIMs. QWERTY keyboard of Y Pro Duos makes a lot of difference to Ace Duos. Apart from the two there is not much of difference between the duos. Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos vs Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos-

Samsung has made it lot of reputation in India.If they continue like this then they will master the market in India in coming time..
Hopefully. Samsung will reach that far!!
Galaxy Y Pro Duos-QWERTY is cheaper than Galaxy ace.
You need to check it out. nothing said about absence of flash in camera in your blog.
Thank you very much for your kind information!! You are absolutely right. Galaxy Y Pro Duos is cheaper than Galaxy Ace Duos. The reason is, the post was published before the release of the model in India. I am trying to develop an automated price updation system. Hopefully it will eliminate issues related to price.Price updated for both the models. It will change again
I have been using the Galaxy Y pro for five days and have been pretty much satisfied with it’s speed and build quality.
To my experience, its the best QWERTY android device you can get at a budget price and be satisfied with its performance. There are many expensive android devices out there which can do half what the galaxy y pro can do.
Oh! I cant stop texting on my galaxy y pro! am writing this comment right from my phone
Very useful info here. The Galaxy Y Duos are now available in Nigeria and after reading through your post, I have concluded to buy the Galaxy Y Pro DUOS. Thanks for the info.
