Reviews for the Samsung Galaxy J5
Samsung Galaxy J5 Smartphone Review | Notebookcheck
Recycling. You have a déjà-vu experience when you open the box of the Galaxy J5, because Samsung uses the old chassis design. Although the components are fairly standard, the manufacturer has integrated a flash at the front for selfie fans.

Brilliance on a budget

It’s a shame to end on the slight downer of the camera because it’s the only area where the Samsung Galaxy J5 puts a foot wrong as far as I’m concerned. Usually, when I’ve reviewed a budget handset, I’m extremely eager to get back to my own phone, but in this instance, I’ll actually be a little sad to see the back of the J5. It’s smooth, stylish, and performs nicely with a bright screen and an incredible battery life. On one such day when I barely used the phone, it lost just 3% of its life from sitting in standby.

A new Moto G killer?
Source: Expert Reviews Archive.org version
Still, if this doesn't bother you, then the Samsung Galaxy J5 is a fine choice. The Moto G is still the phone to beat in my eyes, with Android 6.0, a better camera and more stylish design. However, the J5's amazing screen and battery life will make it the better pick for many, especially if you're switching from another Samsung handset. It wins a Recommended award.

Samsung Galaxy J5 review – Samsung marches into the mid-class with an amazing offer
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
Samsung Galaxy J5 stood up to our expectations, proving it performs really well for a mid-class device. Expectedly, we are satisfied with the Super AMOLED display that offers high brightness and contrast. The only drawback of the screen is the presence of PWM at up to 70% brightness. Furthermore, we don’t have anything bad say about the battery as it performed superbly in all of our tests. We are also satisfied with the software features and performance. We somehow knew the rear 13MP camera of Galaxy J5 will be one of its strong suits and the sample shots along with the performed tests, are here to vouch for that.
