Samsung Galaxy Nexus Sprint Review

(SPH-L700) Score: 66.2 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Sprint is an impressive cellphone released back in 2012, counting with a medium 4.7 inches screen, a Dual-Core processing unit ticking at 1.2 GHz, and two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back camera and a 1.3 MP front-facing camera.

The Nexus Sprint is a compact phone, taking into consideration it features a 4.7 inches screen and it has just 5.33" long and 2.67 inches wide. This phone is slim and good-looking, with a thickness of just 0.37". It seems like Samsung forgot about weight optimization in this 5.29 ounces phone.

This phone is powered by a TI OMAP4460 chip, backed up by a great performance Dual-Core processor ticking at 1200 megahertz with 1 GB of RAM. Collaborating with graphic calculations, this device also counts with a 384 MHz PowerVR SGX540 graphic processing unit. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus Sprint has a great 32 GB internal storage and although it doesn't have a slot for an external memory card, it is still enough to store lots of applications, games, songs, pictures and videos without having to worry about how much storage is left.

The Nexus Sprint has two cameras, a 5 megapixels back camera and a 1.3 MP front side camera. Its back camera has an aperture of F2.8 so it has problems taking good photos in low light environments. It also films videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. The camera also includes flash.

Samsung designed this phone with a incredible 4.7-inches screen, and a resolution of 1280 x 720 (HD), giving this phone a perfect graphical experience. Its screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus Sprint uses a 1850 mAh medium capacity Li-Ion replaceable battery that can keep it running for many hours, but you may need to charge it after some moderate to heavy usage.

This cellphone offers wi-fi connectivity (but it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a wireless modem), LTE 4G fast connectivity and 3G data connection, over EV-DO A technologies. This phone doesn't have a sim card, because it isn't a GSM enabled phone and it can connect to CDMA networks.

This phone also includes a couple of useful characteristics like NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth phones, computers and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

Samsung is offering this phone for around $ 90, quite close to other same level cellphones. This cellphone is definitely very appropiate no matter if you want it to take plenty of pictures, will use it majorly for internet broswing and social networks, want it for work or need a cellphone for playing games.
