Comparisons Featuring Samsung Galaxy Pocket plus S5301

Short Review

  • The Samsung Galaxy Pocket Plus S5301 features a compact design with dimensions of 104.9 x 57.9 x 12 mm and a weight of 97.2g, making it portable and easy to handle.
  • Its 2.8-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, providing basic visual clarity with a pixel density of approximately 143 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by an 850 MHz CPU and 512MB of RAM, which is suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is 2 MP, capable of recording video at 320p@30fps, while there is no front-facing camera.
  • The 1200 mAh battery offers limited longevity, with no fast charging or wireless charging options available.
  • Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) with TouchWiz UX, the software experience is dated but functional for essential tasks.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
  • The device is available in black and white, though it does not feature water resistance.
