Samsung Champ Neo Duos: Dual SIM, 2.4 inch touch screen, just $60

Samsung has just announced a brand new device for the Indian market called the Champ Neo Duos. It doesn’t run Android, sadly, or any other smartphone operating system, which means it’s a feature phone. Before you run away though, let’s see what makes this device special. First, the screen.
