Budget smartphone from Samsung, which is very surprising. In Russia, this fresh model is very popular, and all because for a modest amount of money the manufacturer offers an expensive-looking device with a frameless design, non-trivial colors, a dual camera with a wide-angle lens, and even NFC and Samsung Pay on board.

RAM here is 3 GB, built-in — 32. The battery boasts a capacity of 4000 mAh, and the screen has a chic AMOLED matrix. Bonuses — 3 card slots (2 for SIM, 1 for a flash drive), USB Type-C connector and face unlock. And the main advantage of the model is the price.

The phone may seem pensive at times, but it certainly doesn’t slow down.

As can be judged from customer reviews, the smartphone is assembled perfectly and pleases with good ergonomics. But the PLS-matrix raises certain questions. First, it is slightly yellowish.

The camera does not reach the flagship level (which is expected), but it works out its megapixels honestly.
