Samsung Galaxy J2 (2017) Review

Score: 61.5 / 100

Samsung Galaxy J2 (2017) is a nice cellphone launched back in 2017, packing an extremely fast 1300 megahertz Quad-Core CPU, a 4.7-inches screen, and 2 cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 MP front side camera. But it's time to get into much more details.

Samsung decided to sell this phone with a Samsung Exynos system chip, holding an exceptional 1300 MHz Quad-Core processor with only 1 GB of RAM which is a little bit low for a phone this good. A good point of the Samsung Galaxy J2 (2017) is its big 8 GB internal storage memory and an external SD slot, allowing you to store hundreds of applications without worrying about space.

This cellphone is just available in 16 777 216 color. This phone feels much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone like this. Regarding its design, this phone is mostly made of Plastic . Being just 0.33" thick,this phone is extremely slim and good-looking. This cellphone is quite a compact cellphone, considering it features a 4.7 inches screen and it is only 5.37 inches long and 2.72" wide.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 megapixels front side camera. This cellphone also captures videos in 1280x720 (HD) at 30 fps.

This cellphone has a good level 540 x 960 4.7-inches screen, which makes everything look great.

This cellphone features WiFi connectivity (but it can't provide it to other devices acting as a hotspot), 4G LTE high speed internet connection and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSPA and HSUPA technologies. This cellphone has dual SIM so it is able to use 2 different carriers or phone numbers in the same cellphone.

This device also comes with some cool characteristics such as Bluetooth (allows communication with other bluetooth devices and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a few sensors likeProximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This cellphone comes with a 2000 mAh medium replaceable battery, which is quite low for a demanding device like this.

It doesn't matter whether you will use it as a work device, want it to take many photos, want a gamer phone or want it majorly for social networks, this cellphone is definitely very appropiate for you.
