Is Samsung J5 2017 a good phone?
dagmar
over 1 year ago
It's a solid performer when put side-by-side with its competition, battery life is excellent, the new design is top-notch and its camera is far improved over last year's effort. The only issue is that price hike.

Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 review and best deals | S21

The ever-popular Samsung Galaxy J5 has been upgraded for 2017 with a full metal body, and a fingerprint sensor embedded in the home button. It's a smart, slim phone with a good-sized 5.2 inch AMOLED screen and fast performance from its 8-core Exynos processor. The new 13 megapixel front camera will be welcomed by selfie fans, and battery life remains strong. It's a good all-rounder, but we'd like to see the price fall.
