The New Samsung Galaxy J1 2016 Edition First Impression

Samsung is going to launch Samsung Galaxy J1 (2016) version soon in India. This phone is officially available in Russia. The price of this phone is not disclosed yet, but we can expect its price around Rs 8000/-. Let us have a quick look on the J1 (2016) specification:

PROCESSOR & MEMORY

It is powered with a quad core 1.3 GHz CPU, the brand of the CPU is not mentioned as the specifications of this phone on official website of Samsung is yet to be disclosed. Since Samsung gives its own AXINOS processors for phones of this range, we would expect same with this one too. It has only 1 GB of RAM with 8 GB of internal storage which can be expanded via micro SD card (up to 128GB).

DISPLAY, CAMERA & DESIGN

Samsung Galaxy J1 (2016) features a 4.5-inch WVGA with resolutions of 480x800 pixels Super AMOLED display. The handset has dimensions of 132.6x69.3x8.9mm and weighs 131 grams. The Galaxy J1 (2016) will be available in Black, Gold, and White colors. It has a 5 MP rear and 2 MP front camera.

BATTERY & CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS

The Galaxy J1 (2016) is backed by a 2050 mAh battery. It supports 4G LTE, GPRS/ EDGE, 3G, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, and Micro-USB connectivity options.

VERDICT

Well by reading the specs I personally feel this device is overpriced. It has nothing special to be in the range of Rs 9000. At this price many powerful smartphones are available already in the market like Coolpad note 3, Meizu M2 and Meizu M2 note. At this price only the super AMOLED display is something that may attract customers but other features are very disappointing. Overall the phone is not worth to buy, it is overpriced.

Pic Source

Lenovo has launched it all new K5 note in china. Few weeks ago they released Vibe k4 note. They termed it has killer note. But the performance did not leave any Killer impact on Users mind. As far as the specs are concerned, Lenovo doesn’t make a lot change in the k5 note. The processor is upgraded to MediaTek Helio P10 and the front camera is 8 MP followed by some minor changes. Also it has a full metal body as it is in the trend. The k5 note is priced at CNY 1099/- (Approx. Rs. 11,350/-). Let’s talk about the specs in detail:

PROCESSOR AND MEMORY:

The phone powers with a Mediatek Helio P10 SoC with 64-bit octa-core processor and Mali-T860 GPU.  It has only 2 GB of Ram which certainly disappoints many users. The Internal storage is 16 GB which can be expanded up to 128 GB by a micro SD card.

CAMERA AND DISPLAY:

                                                                                                   Pic Source

In terms of camera, it sports 13 MP rear camera with PDAF (Phase detection auto focus) and dual tone flash. The selfie lover definitely like K5 note, as it has an 8 MP front shooter. It has the same 5.5 inch full HD display, which is very sharp and vivid. The display has 1920 by 1080 pixels resolution with 403 PPI (pixel per inch).

BATTERY, OS and DESIGN:

K5 note powers with a 3500 mAh non removable battery that supports Fast Charging. The K5 note runs on Android 5.1 with VIBE UI running on top of it. The phone also sports a FINGER PRINT Sensor at the back below the Camera. As far as the design is concerned it has all metal Uni-body design with dimensions of 152 x 75.7 x 8.49 mm. K5 note also packs Dolby ATMOS powered speakers which gives you rich multimedia experience.

CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS:

K5 note is a dual SIM 4G smartphone which also supports the 4G bands in India. Other connectivity options include GPRS/ EDGE, 3G, A-GPS, Bluetooth 4.0, Micro-USB, and FM radio.  

VERDICT:

In the launch of Lenovo Vibe K4 note Lenovo created so much hype saying K4 note is a KILLER NOTE. But the performance doesn't show any such KILLER instinct. Now Lenovo released K5 note, again no Big changes in the Specifications Column. With a Helio P10 processor clocked at 1.8 GHz, we may expect a lot better performance than K4. 8 MP front shooter is a good move by Lenovo followed by some minor upgrades like 3500 mAh battery and Full metal body. Well its too early to say anything about the K5 note as Lenovo not revealed its launch date in India
