Characteristics edit

It is the first model of Galaxy series to feature near-field communication (NFC). However, it is not compatible with Osaifu-Keitai.

The Ver.001 IC card can be used for regular communication, but if it is used for authentication of NFC function, it needs to be replaced with the ver.002 - a card with brown and white stripes. Normal cards that are the size of ver.002 are supported by adding a terminal.[2]

The user interface adopts Samsung's original TouchWiz 4.0 UX.

The logo (cursive style design) uses a new typeface stamped sequentially from models of 2012 spring model and later including this model. The logo appears immediately after startup and displays the text "au".

This phone is neither IP67 and IP68 certified which means it is neither water nor dust-proof.[2]

The "KDDI E-mail application" pre-installed in this model is different from the "KDDI E-mail application" installed in the Fall / Winter 2011 model · Xperia acro (IS 11 S) · HTC EVO WiMAX (ISW 11 HT). A ringtone can be set to something other than preset.[3]
