Comparisons Featuring Samsung Galaxy Rush M830
Short Review
- The Samsung Galaxy Rush M830 features a compact design with dimensions of 122.9 x 59.9 x 11.9 mm and a weight of 119.1g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
- Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM8655 Snapdragon S2 chipset, a 1.0 GHz Scorpion CPU, and 2GB of RAM, providing sufficient capability for everyday applications.
- The rear camera is a 3.15 MP unit with autofocus, while the front-facing camera is 1.3 MP, suitable for basic selfies.
- The 1750 mAh battery supports standard usage but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software is outdated compared to current standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device lacks water resistance and stereo speakers, which may limit its appeal.
- Overall, the Galaxy Rush M830 is a basic smartphone with essential features, suitable for users with minimal requirements.
