Samsung adopted a new smartphone strategy two years ago. This resulted in Galaxy flagships S7 and S7 edge, as well as A-series models (A3, A5 and A7) medium price segment... After making sure of the correctness of the chosen direction, as evidenced by the growth in sales, Samsung took up the line relatively affordable smartphones by unveiling the 2016 Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7. Thus, the new items received new body materials, a more productive platform, an improved camera and a more capacious battery. Let's see how it all works in practice.
Design and construction
Traditionally for Samsung, the design of the Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7 is similar to the older models of the company, the shape and style of the 2016 A-series are easily recognizable in it. Thanks to this, unlike last year's versions, the new smartphones look much nicer, their design has become stricter and no longer seems like a “toy” one.
This also applies to the feeling of use. The materials in the Galaxy J5 and J7 are not just plastic. Apart from the bezel covered with glass, the frames of smartphones are made of metal.
Design Galaxy cases The J5 and Galaxy J7 date back to the Galaxy Alpha. Their back is covered with a thin plastic cover, which fits very tightly to the body. Due to the fact that flexible plastic is superimposed on a rigid base, the structure seems to be non-separable. In fact, by detaching the case cover, you can access the battery, two slots for micro SIM and one for microSD.
By the way, one cannot but praise the developers for a separate memory card slot, which is often combined with a SIM, forcing the user to make a choice either in favor of additional number, or memory.
Galaxy J5 and J7 control keys are the same as others Samsung models... On the right side there is a power key, on the left - volume control. Under the display you can find a mechanical Home button, as well as touch keys. The latter, unfortunately, do not have backlighting.
In general, the Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7 look good, while from the older models they received not only the design, but also the metal in the case, as well as good build quality.
Display
The Galaxy J5 has a 5.2-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen display with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels (282 ppi). The Galaxy J7 uses the same sensor, but with a 5.5-inch diagonal (267 ppi).
Despite the HD resolution, the information on the screens is readable, the fonts do not seem grainy, unless you bring smartphones very close to your eyes, then PenTile becomes noticeable. The quality of the displays is traditional for Super AMOLED, they have excellent viewing angles and good color reproduction, which can be adjusted. In the "Adaptive display" mode, the image is rich and colorful, but colder (7500K) and with a pronounced bias in blue.
However, if you switch to the "AMOLED Photo" mode, the picture on both displays will become closer to natural.
Minimum brightness Galaxy screens J5 and J7 reaches 4 cd / m2, and the maximum is 353 cd / m2.
But in the notification panel next to the brightness control there is a button for activating the "Outdoor" mode, which increases the display brightness of the J5 to 400 cd / m2, and the J7 to 434 cd / m2. This allows the screen to remain readable even in bright sunlight.
Hardware and software platforms
In terms of the platform, Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016) completely repeats last year's Galaxy A5, it has a 4-core Qualcomm processor Snapdragon 410 1.2 GHz, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory, which can be expanded with microSD cards. The performance of this platform is more than sufficient for running applications and arcade games. But if you plan to play ported to Android games from PCs like Star Wars KOTOR or Banner Saga, Galaxy J5 won't pull them. In the same World of Tanks on a smartphone, you can play only on the minimum settings. In synthetic tests, J5 shows the following results:
Galaxy J7 (2016) is based on Samsung's own platform - this is an 8-core Exynos 7 Octa (7870) chip with a frequency of 1.6 GHz, as well as Mali-T830 MP graphics. It is complemented by 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory, which can also be expanded with microSD cards. The performance of the Galaxy J7 is better than that of the J5, even better than the flagship smartphones from three years ago. This allows you to work with applications without problems, and even play demanding games not at maximum settings.
Both smartphones run Android 6.0.1 operating system with TouchWiz shell.
This is the standard interface for Samsung smartphones, similar to that used in all latest smartphones companies.

Camera
The highlight of the Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7 (2016) is the 13MP autofocus camera with f / 1.9 aperture. Samsung has not previously installed similar photo modules in smartphones entry level.
In practice, of course, everything turned out to be not so simple. Despite the seemingly identical cameras, the Galaxy J7 shoots better, the J5 lacks detail with enough light, although the shots are still good for this price point. The aperture allows both models to pull out more detail when lighting deteriorates, but here, too, the J7's shots are noticeably more detailed. Apparently, a more productive processor affects. Other than that, the Galaxy J5 lacks an HDR mode for some reason.
It is important to note that the Galaxy J5 and J7 have received the feature quick launch camera by double-clicking the "Home" button, which first appeared in the flagship Galaxy smartphones S6 and S6 edge. At the same time, the very software cameras start up faster than you expect from models in this price range.

As you can see, both models have a similar set of characteristics. The diagonal of the display in Redmi 3 is slightly smaller and is 5 inches, versus 5.2 in the Galaxy J5. Picture quality is good on both models, but Super AMOLED screen samsung benefits from higher contrast and less sun fading.
The design of Xiaomi Redmi 3 is non-separable, the user cannot replace the battery on his own, in addition, he will have to choose between using second SIM-cards, as well as a slot for microSD. Galaxy J5 does not have these problems, there are separate slots for two SIM and a memory card, besides this, the battery can be pulled out.
But in terms of performance, the Snapdragon 616 in the Redmi 3 still slightly bypasses the Snapdragon 410 in the Galaxy J5. In the test AnTuTu smartphone Xiaomi scores 33667 points, while Samsung scores 27995. However, in real use, the difference in speed is not so noticeable. Both models are fast for applications, but not suitable for demanding games. For example, World of Tanks both smartphones pull out only at the minimum settings.
In terms of opportunities Galaxy cameras The J5 is slightly inferior to the Redmi 3 in detail in good lighting, but wins when it gets worse.

In addition, the Galaxy J5, unfortunately, does not HDR mode, in Redmi 3 it works quite well. But the camera starts and fires in smartphone Samsung faster.
Xiomi Redmi 3 runs Android 5.1 operating system with MIUI 7 shell. Moreover, if you order a smartphone directly from China, then it can go without Google services and localization, you will have to reflash yourself. Another caveat, Chinese stores often set their own MIUI versions of unknown origin. There may also be problems with updating such smartphones, so it is better to immediately look for models with global firmware, in which, although there will be Chinese applications, it should be updated over the air. Galaxy J5 has the most current Android version 6.0.1 with the TouchWiz shell, there are no problems with localization here, as well as updates, they come automatically.
In terms of autonomy, the Redmi 3 performs very well thanks to the 4100 mAh battery, in the PCMark test it lasted about 12 hours. The Galaxy J5 with a 3,100mAh battery has a lower score of 8 hours in PCMark.
The most important advantage of Xiomi Redmi 3 is the price, but this is rather a feature of unofficial and semi-official deliveries, the surcharge for which can result in problems with firmware and service. Samsung Galaxy J5 will obviously be chosen by those who are willing to pay extra for the lack of such nuances.

Both smartphones have similar body sizes due to the same display diagonal. In the M3 Note, almost the entire rear part is metal, but the case, like that of Redmi 3, cannot be disassembled. In addition, the user will also have to choose between installing a second SIM or microSD cards... The construction of the Galaxy J7 is the same as the J5, the battery is removed here, there is a separate slot for the memory card.
Both models have a 5.5-inch display. The M3 Note has an IPS matrix with Full resolution HD. In this plan Meizu smartphone bypasses the Galaxy J7 with HD resolution. However, the quality of the Super AMOLED screen itself is slightly better, both in terms of factory calibration and behavior in the sun.
The performance of smartphones is on the same level, both models gain about 43 thousand points in the AnTuTu test. But their platforms are different. Meizu M3 Note has Helio P10 with Mali-T860 MP2 graphics, while Galaxy J7 has Exynos 7 Octa (7870) and Mali-T830 MP. The devices do a good job of running applications, and can even provide decent gaming performance.
Both smartphones have 13-megapixel cameras, but the Galaxy J7 takes more detailed pictures in both low and good lighting. In general, the camera is not strong point M3 Note.

Here's where the Meizu smartphone really surpasses Samsung, is the presence of a quite good fingerprint scanner. The Korean company has not yet decided to install fingerprint scanners in entry-level smartphones so as not to compete with older models.
The Meizu M3 Note is running the Android 5.1 operating system with the Flyme shell, which is quite different from the standard one in Android. As with Xiaomi, there is a version with both Chinese firmware, without Google services, and international, in which there should be no problems with localization and updates. At the same time, due to the fact that the smartphone has only one button, easy way activation Google service Unfortunately, there is no now in it. Galaxy J7 has operating system Android 6.0.1 with TouchWiz shell, it has a standard control with three function buttons, and is also updated over the air.
The Meizu M3 Note uses a 4100 mAh battery, while the Galaxy J7 has a 3300 mAh battery. Nevertheless, the higher display resolution in this regard does not play into the hands of the M3 Note, in the PCMark battery test it lasted 9 hours 33 minutes, while the J7 - 12 hours 34 minutes.
As with the Redmi 3, the cost of the M3 Note is noticeably lower than the Galaxy J7. The user will have to choose: either the display is more high resolution and a fingerprint scanner, or best camera, a separate slot for memory cards and a higher autonomy. At the same time, it should be noted that Samsung's service support is still better than that of Meizu. Whether it is worth overpaying for these benefits is up to everyone to decide for himself.

Determining the type of device (phone or smartphone?) Is quite simple. If you need a simple and inexpensive device for calls and SMS, it is recommended to opt for a telephone. A smartphone is more expensive, but it offers a wide variety of options: games, videos, the Internet, thousands of programs for all occasions. However, its battery life is significantly shorter than that of a simple phone.General characteristics
