Samsung Design d5

Samsung has stepped up its game in industrial design at the upper end of its device portfolio, but the low and mid-range devices are yet to do the same with the Galaxy looking J5 quite similar to other Samsung phones since 2013 the design was not particularly striking at a time when it was introduced with the S III and is decidedly long in the tooth now. This is not a phone that you will buy for its looks, that's for sure.

Battery Life

The Galaxy J5 offers impressive battery life of its 2,600mAh battery. Even with two SIM, you can expect to get about 5-6 hours of screen time with the top of 20 hours of total battery life.

Its a phone, you can forget taking your external battery and not have to worry about die on you before you get home at the end of the day. Unfortunately, the phone is charging takes painfully long, with 1% to 100% by taking exactly three full hours with a charger 5V / 2A standard.

Screen type

The Galaxy J5 has a super AMOLED 5.0-inch 1280x720 pixels, which is surprisingly good for a smartphone in this price range. The colors are quite natural for AMOLED unit and almost make it look like an LCD. J5 not the color picker profile from Samsung phones more expensive so you're stuck with the color adjustment of a screen, but in this case it is not really a problem.
