Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G Review

Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G is a little bit outdated phone released in 2012, which counts with a 4-inches multi touch capacitive display, a great Dual-Core processing unit running at 1.5 gigahertz, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front camera. Let's take a better look at what this cellphone can give us.

Samsung decided to equip the S Blaze 4G using a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 APQ8060 chip, which holds an exceptional Dual-Core CPU ticking at 1.5 GHz with only 1 GB RAM which is a bit low for a cellphone this good. Graphic calculations often consume a lot of processing power, so it also has a 266 megahertz Adreno 220 GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. This cellphone has a small 1 GB internal memory, which may be enough for basic users considering it also has an SD memory card expansion slot to store photographs and videos and even some apps and games that allow external memory installation.

This phone is slim and practical, but it's not close to being one of the thinnest cellphones in the market, with a thickness of 0.44". This time, it seems like Samsung didn't care much about the weight in this 4.5 ounces cellphone.

This phone features two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 1.3 MP front camera. This cellphone can also shoot videos in 1280x720 (HD). This phone also has a few useful characteristics: flash, smile detection shooting, auto-focus and geo tagging.

This phone has a very good 800 x 480 4-inches screen, giving this device a detailed graphical experience. This screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

The S Blaze 4G packs a 1750 mAh mid capacity Li-Ion battery, which is not really enough for a consuming cellphone like this. Samsung afirms this device has a 230 hours stand by time and a 7 hs talk time.

This phone includes wifi connectivity (which can be shared with other devices acting as a wireless modem or router), HSPA+ (4G) connection type, that is not so fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and fast 3G connection type, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card for GSM networks.

This cellphone also includes a few nice characteristics like Bluetooth (provides communication with other bluetooth cellphones, computers and accessories) and GPS, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone is priced $ 85, not very cheap for comparing with other similar devices. If you want a device mainly for internet broswing and social networks or are looking for a cellphone to play games, this phone is definitely a great choice for you.
