"Samsung 7262": specifications, photos, prices, settings

This small material is entirely devoted to the entry-level smartphone "Samsung 7262". Characteristics, hardware software capabilities, owner feedback about it, as well as expert opinion - that's what will be discussed in detail in the framework of the article you are offering.

What's in the box

Something unusual to show off in terms of bundling can not "Samsung 7262". The instruction manual for the gadget with a warranty card is a complete list of the documentation in the box of this device. In addition to the smartphone, the package includes such accessories:

• Battery with a capacity of 1500 mA / h.
• A standard stereo headset.
• Adapter for charging the battery.
• Cord for connection to a personal computer.

As expected, there is no flash card in the package, which must necessarily be purchased separately. A similar situation with a protective film and cover.

Appearance and usability

On the form factor this device refers to monoblocks with support for touch input. In the rest it is the typical representative of a ruler "Galaxy" of this South Korean manufacturer. The second name of this model of smart phone is Galaxy Star Plus. So in the similar design of the device there is nothing special. The swing of the volume is output to the left edge, and the lock button to the right. Under the screen are three classic control buttons. Like most of the devices of this brand, two of them are sensory (they are located at the edges), and one, central, is mechanical. The phone "Samsung 7262" has the following dimensions: length is 121.2 mm, width - 62.7 mm, and its thickness is 10.6 mm. At the same time, its weight is 121 g. In general, this is a typical representative of the segment of smart phones of entry level. Something special against the background of competitors, he can not boast, as well as special flaws he does not.

CPU

As the computing heart of this device is a processor based on the architecture of "Cortex A5" with a single core. The maximum possible clock frequency is 1 GHz, which operates at the peak load moment. As you can see from all the above, the CPU is very weak at the Samsung 7262 mobile phone. The characteristics given earlier allow him to cope with most everyday tasks to date: viewing video in the format "* .avi", "* .mpeg4" or "* .3zhp", playing audio recordings, reading books, browsing the Internet sites or unpretentious games. But the video in HD and higher quality or complex 3D games on it just will not go.

Graphic subsystem

A separate graphics adapter does not have a smart phone in this model. Its role is played by the central processor. As a result, the hardware platform leaves much to be desired in the Samsung 7262. Characteristics of it and so it is not very, but here it is also loaded with graphics. The display diagonal of this device is 4 inches. It is built on the basis of the TFT-sensor. The quality of the image does not cause any complaints, but the viewing angles are much smaller than for devices with an IPS matrix. The screen resolution is 800 x 480. The pixel density is normal, and their eyes are difficult to distinguish. The number of reflected shades is equal to 16 million. In the rest it is a sufficiently high-quality display based on sensor technology.

Camera

Only one main camera is the Samsung 7262. Specifications and reviews In respect of its one: the quality of it is below average. Unsurprisingly, because it is based on a sensor element in 2 Mp. However, some additional options that significantly improve the quality of the resulting image are not realized in the smartphone. LED backlighting is also not available, and as a result, you can take pictures with this device only in the presence of normal lighting. With video recording, the situation is even worse. Only 15 frames per second at a resolution of 240 x 320 - this is very little for today. The quality of the videos is very poor.

Memory

It's hard enough to say how much RAM there is in this gadget. According to the documentation should be 512 MB, but here the results of tests it turns out that this number is reduced and is 460 MB. But here we must remember that there is no separate video card in this smartphone. Its functions are performed by the central processor. Well, it turns out that 52 MB is reserved for the graphics subsystem of the device. The remaining 460 MB are approximately 60-70 percent occupied by system processes. As a result, only 100-120 MB is allocated for the user's needs. It does not work out very well, and it will not increase this value. The capacity of the built-in drive is 4 GB. Of these, about half is occupied by the operating system. In turn, 2 GB is allocated to the needs of the user. This is enough only for installing software. But there is nowhere to store music or photos. The ideal solution in this case is to install an external drive, and the corresponding slot is in this device. The maximum capacity of the memory card can be 32 GB - this is how many can "see" the "Samsung 7262". The settings of the memory subsystem must be made so that the internal memory is used to install the application software, and the external drive is completely occupied by the user's personal data (music, photos, books and movies).

Battery and autonomy

This smartphone is equipped with a battery of 1500 mAh. It's kind of like it's not enough for today. But, on the other hand, it has a processor with 1 core, no graphics adapter and a small diagonal of a 4-inch display. All this in the amount at an average level of use allows this gadget to stretch on one battery charge 3-4 days. If you use this device to the maximum, this value will decrease to 1-2 days. But in the energy saving mode, he can stretch out for 5 days.

The software part

The software environment of this smart phone is based on a very outdated version of "Android" with the serial number 4.1. Of course, this is not very good, but, on the other hand, problems with application software should not be. Over the operating system is installed proprietary shell TouchWiz, which is equipped with all Samsung smartphones. Price list They have higher because of this than similar devices, but the functionality due to this is significantly improved. Otherwise, the software package is quite familiar: social clients, a set of utilities from Google and standard embedded applications.

Communications

Standard, familiar, as for the device of the initial class, a set of interfaces for this device. Something unusual and in this respect can not boast of a smartphone "Samsung 7262". And this list is the following:

• The main interface for receiving and sending information to the Internet is "Wi-Fi". It allows to receive and transmit data at a speed of 150 Mbit / s. This allows for a few minutes to download movies in high quality. With all the other everyday tasks (viewing online video, Internet sites or social networking), this also allows you to easily cope.
• Immediately 2 slots are in this smart phone for installing SIM cards. They work in an alternating mode. That is, during a conversation on one of them, the second automatically turns out to be outside the access zone. The problem can be solved by reconfiguring the call forwarding system. The device is equipped with a module for operation only in second generation networks, that is, there is no support for 3Z and LTE in this device. From here the peak information transfer with such connection can reach 500 kbit / s. In fact, this value is several times smaller and is about 100 kbit / s.
• Another important way of exchanging data is Blutuz. Its main task - the exchange of data with similar mobile devices, but a secondary one is the connection to the smartphone of a wireless headset (of course, it will have to be bought separately).
• 3.5 mm audio port allows you to output audio from this gadget to an external speaker system. The stereo headset that comes with the kit is far from the best quality and it's better to immediately purchase other headphones with better sound quality.
• The last important wired interface is microUSB. Its main task is to charge the battery. But it can also be used to connect to a computer or to connect an external battery with an increased capacity to the device.

The opinion of the owners of this device and experts

The opinion of experts and owners is much in agreement with the "Samsung 7262". Characteristics and testimonials highlight a number of shortcomings in this device. Among them, you can allocate a small amount of RAM, frankly, a weak processor and absolutely no camera. This list can be continued. All this, in theory, should be compensated by the democratic cost of the gadget. But like all Samsung smartphones, the price of this device is too high. At the moment it costs 55 dollars. At the same time, its Chinese analog with the best configuration will cost $ 45-50. Hence the problems in the division for the production of mobile phones and smartphones from the South Korean giant.

Total

That's so ambiguous turned out "Samsung 7262". His characteristics are very modest, the price is slightly too high. But still this smart phone will find its buyer necessarily. Moreover, its hardware and software resources will suffice with a head to solve most everyday tasks.
