Comparisons Featuring Samsung R720 Admire
Short Review
- The Samsung R720 Admire features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 60 x 12 mm and a weight of 117g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
- Performance is powered by an 800 MHz CPU, though the absence of RAM limits multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of video recording, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1600 mAh battery supports basic usage but does not offer fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated, lacking modern features and updates.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone is available in black and red colors, providing limited aesthetic choices.
- Overall, the R720 Admire is a basic device suitable for essential functions but falls short in performance and features compared to contemporary smartphones.
- Its design and build quality are acceptable for its time, but it may not meet the demands of today's users.
