Other features include a 1.2 GHz dual core processor, S Beam which uses NFC, and LTE capabilities. Samsung says that the Galaxy Stratosphere II is also Global Ready, which means that users can call and email from over 200 countries. It also has a built-in Virtual Private Network (VPN) connectivity and it also supports multi-vendor Mobile Device Management (MDM). The Galaxy Stratosphere II is also built with security in mind, thanks to its Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync feature and on-device AES 256-bit encryption.
