It was only a couple days ago that we saw pictures of an alleged Galaxy S2, and now we have a baby-sized one that’s supposed to be its little brother. Supposedly this guy has a 3.5″ 320×480 screen (probably Super AMOLED, to maintain the Galaxy style), runs Froyo 2.2, and has a 5MP camera on the back. Processor is listed as Qualcomm’s budget MSM7227. Model number is S5830, and it’s quad-band with WCDMA support.

The rectangular home button and general layout remind me of a sort of chubby, compact version of the reference Galaxy S. More pictures at Samfirmware and Tenaa. Supposedly it’ll be shown off at MWC; we’ll be there, so don’t you worry.
