Other specifications of the phone remain same as Touchwiz version, which packs 5-inch 1080 Super AMOLED display, Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor, 16GB of internal storage, 2GB of RAM, 13MP rear camera, 2MP front camera and microSD card slot. The phone also features unlocked bootloader and SIM slot. It has been priced at $649 and will go on sale in Google Play on June 26. Source
