Smartphone Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105H: reviews

Korean developers have long been firmly entrenched in the niche production of smartphones. Moreover, by some criteria their products confidently hold leadership. But this applies primarily to models of the premium level and partly to the middle class. The budget segment has been left without the company's attention for several years, although there are some steps in this direction. The big hopes of fans of this niche were connected with the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini SM j105h. Reviews of a large part of users say that the creators managed to cope with the basic tasks, although certain successes do not compensate for the price tag of the model in 4,5-5 thousand rubles.

General information about the smartphone

The device is positioned as a cheap compact smartphone, continuing the series of J1. Nothing fundamentally new this model has not received, and even by the standards of its budget segment looks pretty average. This is due to the fact that the niche itself has long ago fallen into the background, which inevitably affected the interest of the manufacturers themselves. The only thing that attracts this device against the background of other proposals, so this is the name of the brand. At the same time, there were not enough branded solutions in the filling. For example, if the classic representative of compact J1 smartphones wins competition through the SuperAmoled screen, then even glimpses of originality and technological superiority are not observed. Despite this, some reserve in quality is still provided to the device Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h. The review of the model, its technical data and user feedback will help to better understand the consumer value of the novelty.

The device largely duplicates the solutions used, offering a slightly different, more compact form factor. With trends in the production of modern smartphones, this development is not worth comparing, because it lags noticeably.

Reviews about design

Perhaps the design and assembly are the strongest sides of this device. As users note, the developers managed to implement a reliable enclosure without backlashes and creaks. Although there is a claim to the quality of the plastic itself, but this is already a given budget class as such. The style in which the smartphone is made is generally similar to the overall concept of the line. Owners note the laconicism and external sophistication, which a little distinguishes the device from a wide range of state employees of this level.

As for color, the model has received several options. In addition to the basic shades inherent in other representatives of the family, appeared Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h Black, reviews of which mark originality and even a hint of presentability. There is also one feature of the form-factor of this model, which causes contradictory responses. The fact is that the smartphone was thicker than usual. From the point of view of ergonomics, this nuance can be considered as a plus, although modern manufacturers have long been betting on thin cases. In this style, for example, the basic modification of the smartphone J1 was performed, which also received a larger screen.

Reviews about the camera

The quality of shooting is eloquently evidenced by the VGA matrix, which is also a relic of the past in the context of current trends. Users also note the modesty of the functionality - lack of autofocus leads to the fact that an already not impressive 5Mp resolution makes the images blurry. However, there are many positive responses of fans of landscape photosessions. In terms of video shooting, also special effects should not be expected. In any case, to obtain more or less high-quality materials, you will have to experiment with light and angle of shooting. This applies to the front camera, which also provides a smartphone Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h. Reviews about this module are more critical. Many owners draw parallels with models that appeared several years ago. Again, there is no question of any entry of camera cameras into modern trends.

Reviews about the possibilities of the battery

In addition to the price tag, budget smartphones traditionally attract relatively high energy savings. The battery in this model was used very modest - at 1500 mAh, but it is clear that the developers have thought through this nuance of exploitation. Users note that the device is able to provide full functionality with an average load of resources two days. This is a worthy indicator even against the backdrop of the possibilities of economy-class models. True, and achieved this result was due to performance limitations Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h. The reviews also point to the flexibility of energy-saving management, which actually proves useful in practice. The device provides a mode of economical power consumption, in which all functions except the basic functions are disabled.

Feedback on the possibilities of communication

Systems for communication support are also far from the requirements of the modern user, but the basic modules work very well. So, the owners point to the stability of receiving signals in 2G and 3G networks. For work in them there are two departments for cards of format Micro-SIM. There are both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi sensors, which allows you to use the gadget as a pocket access point on the Web. There are also two navigation systems Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h - reviews about the functions of GPS and GLONASS are more often positive, although there are also problems in hard-to-connect places. For those who may not have enough proximity sensors, experienced users recommend using special software that blocks the screen at the time of the call. That is, the display remains active when a signal is received. Double-tapping allows you to instantly unlock the screen during a call.

Performance Reviews

The device provides a quad-core Spreadtrum processor modification SC8830. The graphic processing capabilities are answered by the Mali-400 MP2 system. According to users, this combination provides a confident work with the interface, as well as with most applications. In any case, there are no serious delays. Smartphone allows you to run even modern 3D games, but there is another drawback of the model Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h. Reviews complain about small screen sizes, which do not have the best effect on the comfort of work and multimedia files. Nevertheless, demanding games are almost without delay, although for this you may need to manipulate the graphics settings. As for the Lollipop operating system, it was cleaned of unnecessary elements. Optimization was successful, relieving users of excessive capacity utilization of the device.

Sound reviews

Regarding the work of the sound dynamics, there are also few negative reviews. The hole for the module is located at the rear near the camera. As the owners say, the volume reserve is enough to make the call sound even in noisy places. The sound quality does not cause any special claims, although it is also difficult to call the benchmark for this indicator. This is evidenced by flaws in the work of the conversational dynamics of the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h. Reviews, for example, note certain distortions, which are not typical for other representatives of the series.

Who will use the model?

For the advanced and demanding to the characteristics of the user this device is hardly suitable. Moreover, not every fan of budget solutions can be advised this modification, because the market has many options with more functionality, quality of shooting and other features. And yet there are factors that point in favor of the stylish performance of the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini j105h White. The reviews emphasize, first of all, its elegant appearance, as well as stability in the work of the main functions, for which you can forgive other shortcomings. For example, the device more than adequately manifests itself in the hands of those who use instant messengers. Do not discount the compactness of the device, which caused and a relatively long maintenance of performance. In other words, the model turned out to be modest, but practical. Another thing is that these qualities hardly justify the price tag of 5 thousand rubles. In a budgetary niche for this amount you can watch a productive and multifunctional smartphone from competitors.

Conclusion

Premium manufacturers of gadgets basically adhere to the strategy of balanced distribution of functions and new developments for all families of their products. In this case, the developers fully complied with this balance within their own line, but did not take into account the overall situation in the segment for which the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini 2016 j105h was being prepared. Reviews of many owners of this smartphone note that they made a choice mainly because of its belonging to the brand. If we compare it with direct competitors of the device, then a lot of parameters will be revealed, according to which the Korean will lag behind. Moreover, the model did not receive even modern firm development of the company, which could justify the purchase for the sake of the known name of the manufacturer.

On the other hand, there are no special disappointments in the apparatus either. Owners initially accept its shortcomings, but otherwise there are simply no grounds for criticism. The filling, though of low power, but the claimed capabilities, fully realizes - so are things with the set of functions. And this is not talking about a quality build, which can be written in a clear plus, even against the background of comparison with individual models of premium class.
