Samsung might soon announce the next iterations of two of its popular budget Android smartphones, the Galaxy Core and Galaxy Pocket, if a new online listing (now pulled) is to be believed.

The yet-to-be-announced Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos and Galaxy Pocket 2 were briefly listed at a Vietnamese online retailer named Mainguyen before being pulled down. However, GSMArena has obtained the complete specifications and also the press renders of both the rumoured Galaxy Core 2 Duos and Galaxy Pocket 2.

Notably, the Samsung Galaxy Core was launched in June last year, while the Galaxy Pocket was announced back in 2012.

According to the leaked specifications, both the briefly listed Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos and Galaxy Pocket 2 run Android 4.4 KitKat out-of-the-box. The Galaxy Core 2 Duos is said to come with dual-SIM support, as the name suggests. The smartphone will come with a 4.5-inch WVGA (480x800 pixels) display and will have a pixel density of 207ppi.

It features 4GB of inbuilt storage and comes with expandable storage via microSD card. It is said to sport a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and also include a VGA camera.

GSMArena, citing the online listing, claims that the Galaxy Core 2 Duos comes with 3G connectivity option in one SIM, apart from Bluetooth, GPRS/ EDGE and Wi-Fi. A 2000mAh battery is said to back the alleged Galaxy Core 2 Duos and it will measure 130.2x67.9x9.8mm and weigh 138 grams.

The other yet-to-be-announced smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Pocket 2, is said to come with dual-SIM support and a 3.2-inch QVGA (320x480 pixels).
