Comparisons Featuring Samsung Galaxy Star 2 Plus
Short Review
- The Samsung Galaxy Star 2 Plus features a compact design with dimensions of 129.7 x 65.9 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 129 grams, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- Its 4.3-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 217 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU paired with 4GB of RAM, which is adequate for simple applications but may struggle with more demanding tasks.
- The rear camera offers a 3.15 MP sensor capable of recording video at 320p, while there is no front-facing camera available.
- The 1800 mAh battery provides basic longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in black and white colors, though it lacks water resistance.
- Overall, the Galaxy Star 2 Plus is a basic smartphone that meets fundamental needs without advanced features.
