![]() The smartphone adapts well to the environment although the photo is sometimes a bit too dark. Videos can be recorded in 1080p at 30 frames per second. In total, the primary camera's photo quality very much appealed to us. Only the colors sometimes look a bit cool. The dynamics in bright and dark areas is decent. The Galaxy J3 proves this quite impressively: Its primary camera, which is lowered slightly into the casing for protection, takes sharp and quite detailed photos. After all, the photo quality only depends on the pixel count to a certain degree. This is not only the current mid-range standard, but even some premium smartphones do not offer more pixels. 3/4 of the signal was still received at a distance of ten meters (~33 feet) and through three walls, and pages opened just as fast.Ĭompared with the predecessor, the cameras have been upgraded considerably: 13 rather than 8 megapixels are now on the rear. ![]() We had the full signal near the router and pages opened fairly quickly in practical use. The review sample's transmission rates are also at the far back in the standardized test routine. In contrast to most other devices in the comparison, the device cannot use the less frequented 5 GHz network, and it does not support fast 802.11ac networks. The Wi-Fi of the Galaxy J3 has been slimmed down a bit: 802.11 b/g/n is the absolute minimum configuration. The reception in the German D2 network in an urban area was also good indoors: We usually had the full signal in the LTE network. The Nokia 3 presents its best side with nine LTE bands. However, our review sample is on par with its bigger brother with seven supported LTE bands. ![]() The Xperia XA1 already offers 300 MBit/s, and the Galaxy J5 also supports higher speeds. Thus, the Galaxy J3 (2017) Duos also comes with LTE support, but with a maximum download speed of 150 MBit/s. Can Samsung continue its prior success?Ī smartphone without LTE support is only thinkable in the absolute lowest price sector now. And it would of course be interesting to see how our review sample fares compared with last year's model. We are curious to find out where the differences to the bigger Galaxy J5 are and how similarly priced devices, such as the Nokia 3, Sony Xperia XA1, and Lenovo Moto G5, score in comparison. The Galaxy J3 (2017) Duos is a 5-inch smartphone that comes with the usual configuration features for the 200 Euro (~$190) price range. Samsung only sells this year's smartphones as dual-SIM models as the name affix "Duos" indicates. Since there have been several iterations of the J phones, Samsung has added the year (2017) to this year's smartphones. The latter is the center of attention in this test. The three models of the Galaxy J series are called Galaxy J7, Galaxy J5, and Galaxy J3. Like in the A series, there are different sizes and configurations. The Galaxy A series is a kind of mini offspring of the Galaxy S smartphones, while the Galaxy J devices are more autonomous and situated in the mid-range below the Galaxy A phones. The company also introduced the Galaxy J3 Pro in China this month.For the original German review, see here.Īll the hype around Samsung's successful high-end devices easily lets us forget that the manufacturer is also very successful in the mid-range. The smartphone will be exclusive to AT&T. There have been reports earlier claiming that Samsung was planning to include the iris scanner on this year's Galaxy Note 7.Įarlier this month, Samsung Electronics America and AT&T in collaboration unveiled the new Galaxy S7 Active. A recent report suggested that the South Korean smartphone giant will pack an iris scanner on the company's next Galaxy Note phablet. Users will be able to prioritise the notification and decide the colour of the "Smart Glow" notification light.Īt this moment, there is no word whether the "Smart Glow" will also be present on the Galaxy Note 7 expected to launch on August 2. The leaked document says that the "Smart Glow" will change colour depending on the priority or usage alerts, battery status, and other functions.Ī leaked company document first picked up by Galaxyclub shows how the feature will work and also shows that the luminous "Smart Glow" ring will also have the "Selfie Assist" feature ( via Sammobile) that will help users automatically clicking when it detects a face. The unannounced "Smart Glow" will be located around the camera lens on the rear and will glow when a notification pops up. ![]() The new feature is expected to first debut on the Samsung's Galaxy J2 (2016). According to reports, the "Smart Glow" will be an alternative to the existing notification LED setup on the Galaxy smartphones. Samsung is rumoured to introduce a new feature dubbed "Smart Glow" in its smartphones.
