five colours
In 2017, smartphones of the mid-price Samsung Galaxy J line — a trio of models J3, J5, J7 — for the first time received an all-metal case. The choice of colours has also expanded: blue and pink have been added to black, silver and gold. The screen is covered with a protective 2.5D-glass with tactilely pleasant rounded edges. The matrix, in the case of the J5 model with HD resolution, is made using SuperAMOLED technology, thanks to which it boasts high contrast (reads well in the sun) and low power consumption (black pixels are completely turned off).
No accidental clicks
Another gift for the Galaxy J5 2017 from the lordly table of the flagships was a fingerprint scanner built into the mechanical menu button. This completely eliminates accidental unlocking of the screen, because to read the fingerprint you need not just touch your finger, which can be done by accident, but make an effort to press the button.
Camera as document scanner
The processor of the Galaxy J5 2017 is the proprietary eight-core Samsung Exynos 7870, which is comparable in performance to the price-competing Qualcomm Snapdragon 453, but thanks to the modern process technology (14 versus 28 nm) it is even colder and more energy efficient. As a result, a seemingly small 3000 mAh battery lasts for two to three days. The rear camera, though the most ordinary 13-megapixel, but with the traditional for Samsung smartphones, perfectly working macro mode, which is useful for schoolchildren and students for taking pictures of the pages of textbooks and manuals. The front camera has exactly the same resolution and, rare, has an LED flash for taking selfies in the dark.
