Short Review

  • The Samsung Galaxy Pocket S5300 features a compact design with dimensions of 103.7 x 57.5 x 12 mm and a lightweight build at 97 grams.
  • Its 2.8-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 143 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
  • Performance is driven by an 832 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 3GB of RAM, providing limited multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera is basic, with a 2 MP rear sensor that captures video at 320p and no front-facing camera for selfies.
  • The 1200 mAh battery supports standard usage but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) with TouchWiz UI, the software experience is outdated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and a headphone jack, catering to basic audio needs.
  • Overall, the Galaxy Pocket S5300 is a simple device suitable for basic communication and light usage.
  • Its design and features reflect its 2012 release, making it less relevant in today's smartphone market.
