Reviews for the Samsung Galaxy J3 Emerge
Source: PC Mag
Archive.org versionThe Samsung Galaxy J3 emerge isn't particularly special, but it's a good option for Boost Mobile users looking for an affordable phone that's easy to use in one hand. If you prefer a phablet, the LG X Power offers a 5.5-inch screen and longer battery life. The Kyocera Hydro Reach is waterproof and even more affordable, but its older hardware and software combine for lackluster performance. That makes the J3 Emerge a happy medium, especially when you can find it on sale.

This display is tiny. You will probably see very little on the screen and be able to use mini-resolutions.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
