Samsung Galaxy S Advance Review

Samsung Galaxy S Advance is a mid level Android phone released some years ago, in 2012, which counts with a great performance Dual-Core processing unit clocking at 1 GHz, a 4" multi touch screen, and two cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 1.3 megapixels front camera.

The S Advance comes with a powerful Dual-Core processor clocking at 1000 megahertz and 768 MB of RAM. A nice aspect of this cellphone is its 16 GB quite big internal memory and an external memory slot, enough to install a couple hundred applications without worrying about space.

This cellphone doesn't feel very lightweight comparing with today standards, with a weight of 4.23 oz. This cellphone is very slim and practical, being just 0.38" thick. This phone is available just in black color.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 5 megapixels back camera and a 1.3 MP front-facing camera. Its back camera has an aperture of f/2.7 so it has serious difficulties taking sharp photos in low lighting environments. It also shoots videos up to 1280x720 (HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also has flash and auto-focus.

This phone has a interesting 4-inches screen with a 800 x 480 resolution, which makes everything look very good. This screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This device counts with a 1500 mAh medium capacity Li-Ion removable battery providing this phone with a quite short battery duration. Samsung reports a stand by time of 570 hours and a talk time of 15 hs for this cellphone.

This phone counts with wi-fi capability (which it can provide to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G fast connection type, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone uses a SIM card for GSM connection.

This cellphone also includes a couple of interesting features as Bluetooth (3.0) and GPS, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

Samsung is offering this cellphone for $ 249, which is not a really offer for a phone this level. It doesn't matter whether you need a work device, will use it as a gamer cellphone, want it to take lots of pictures or need a phone to majorly use social networks and internet browsing, this cellphone is definitely the right one for you.
