Comparisons Featuring Samsung Galaxy Light
Short Review
- The Samsung Galaxy Light features a compact design with dimensions of 121.4 x 63.5 x 10.2 mm and a weight of 121.9g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 4.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 233 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a quad-core 1.4 GHz CPU paired with 1GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for intensive applications.
- The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The battery capacity is 1800 mAh, which may require frequent charging due to its limited size.
- Running on Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is basic and lacks modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and NFC, but it does not support 5G.
- The device does not offer water resistance and has no wireless charging capabilities.
- The dark brown color adds a simple aesthetic, though material details are unspecified.
- Overall, the Galaxy Light is a straightforward device with essential features for casual users.
