Samsung Galaxy Express I437 Review

(SGH-I437) Score: 63.2 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Express I437 is a very solid Android cellphone launched some years ago, in 2012, counting with an extremely powerful 1500 megahertz Dual-Core CPU, a 4.5-inches multi-touch display, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 1.3 megapixels front camera.

Samsung decided to equip the Samsung Galaxy Express I437 using an exceptional 1.5 gigahertz Dual-Core processor, included in a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 chip with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit low for a cellphone this good. Graphic intensive apps and games usually uses lots of processing time, so it also has an Adreno 225 GPU speeding at 400 megahertz to improve overall performance. A good advantage of the Samsung Galaxy Express I437 is the 8 GB quite large internal storage memory and an external SD slot, which allows you to install a couple hundred applications and games without any problem.

Samsung has made a very nice job making this cellphone weight only 4.23 oz. Being just 0.36 inches thick,this cellphone is slim and practical.

The Samsung Galaxy Express I437 features two cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera. This device also counts with flash.

The Samsung Galaxy Express I437 is equipped with a nice 4.5 inches screen with a 800 x 480 resolution, giving this phone a good graphical experience. This screen uses Super AMOLED Plus capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This phone counts with a medium sized 2000 mAh Li-Ion replaceable battery that can keep it running for some hours, although you will probably find yourself looking for a place to charge it after some moderate use. According to Samsung, this phone has a reported 14 hs talk time and a 312 hs stand by time.

This cellphone has wi-fi connectivity (which can be shared with other devices as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE high performance internet connection and fast 3G internet connection, using HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone uses a SIM card for GSM carriers.

The Express I437 also comes with a couple of useful characteristics as NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your phone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This cellphone is probably a bit overpriced considering it is offerred for 100 dollars, while many similar cellphones are quite cheaper than that. No matter whether you need a phone for gaming, need a phone for work, will use it as a social phone or want this cellphone to take lots of photographs, this device is probably a great choice for you.
