Samsung has recently been very successful with its Galaxy J range. By providing a phone which is simple-to-use, without having all the extras you see with more expensive products. It does this but still gives the customer access to the latest technology.
Design
There are many great features with this phone including the look of it. It benefits from the merging of glass and metal to give an elegant look, which is also strong. There are no unsightly protruding camera lenses on this phone. Instead, it is contained in the body of the phone. This gives you a phone that has a smooth design for comfortable usage.
Display
Samsung's high-definition Super AMOLED screen technology continues to deliver deeper blacks and a higher dynamic colour range. The 5.2-inch display benefits from the inclusion of this technology and have a better battery life, due to the reduced power consumption in comparison to other LCD screens on rival smartphones.
Cameras
One of the significant changes to the specification with this edition is in the cameras. There is not only a powerful 13-megapixel camera on the back of the phone, but there is also a 5-megapixel camera on the front of it. This makes for incredibly highly detailed selfies and video calls. Samsung has also introduced "Selfie Light", a special mode to increase fidelity in low-light conditions. You can even operate the selfie shutter with a simple gesture.
On the back, the camera has seen a slight improvement to a f/1.7 aperture. In comparison, the one on the front has a f/1.9 aperture showing the progressing of Samsung’s photography improvements.
A useful extra is that it is now possible to move the position of the camera button on the display. This makes it easier to take photos using one hand.
Extras
There is no need to worry about storing all your phone's data. The standard internal storage is 16GB and if that's not enough, it is possible to increase this by adding an SD card. All cards up to the current 256GB maximum are compatible.
At 3,100 mAh, Samsung has also included a large battery. This coupled with system apps which lower power consumption, offers plenty of usage to get you through well over a day.
Samsung implements a 'region lock' on all new smartphones. This restricts use of SIM cards to the original region their phones are intended to be sold in.
Clove Technology sells Samsung phones intended for the “European” region, which covers the UK, mainland Europe and some other select territories. The full list is below.
If you are ordering for delivery to a destination outside of this list, we will need to activate the phone prior to shipping, so that you can use a local SIM card.
To activate the phone, we must turn it on, complete set-up with a European SIM installed, then make at least 5 minutes of continuous voice call with this SIM.
Without activation, you can only use the device outside of the listed countries if 'roaming' with a SIM card from the intended sales region.
If this activation procedure is not followed then the device will lock if you attempt to use a SIM card from outside of these regions.
COUNTRY LIST: **All member states of the E.E.A and the following additional territories: Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (F.Y.R.O.M), Monaco, Montenegro, San Marino, Serbia and Vatican City.
IF YOUR CHOSEN DELIVERY COUNTY IS NOT LISTED, CLOVE TECHNOLOGY WILL BREAK THE SEAL ON THIS DEVICE AND ACTIVATE IT. YOU MUST AGREE TO THIS PROCEDURE IN THE CHECKOUT BEFORE THE SALE WILL COMPLETE.
