Good internet browsing. Call quality is good. Can be slow somtimes between some non Samsung android apps. GMail app can be a bit laggy sometimes. Show details ·  1

Outdated – Iv had this phone for 12 months and the whole phone runs really slow and memory does not last very long, will be going back to using and apple iPhone the next phone I get, the only upside is that it is a Samsung brand and the screen is fairly big and pictures are pretty clear  Show details

Quality build at a decent price – It is a decent Samsung phone which is at the perfect price point. There isn't anything special about this phone. The camera takes photos with a slight blue hue and the lack of NFC is annoying especially when I want to try out Android Pay. The 32gb capacity and the 3gb of ram is a luxury to have after upgrading from my Samsung Galaxy S3.  Show details

Good for the price – I broke my galaxy s7 and decided to try the j5 on sale for 299. At first i was relatively surprised by how good it is for a third of the price of a new galaxy. Although it wasnt long before it started slowing down. Good for a first phone or someone who doesnt do much more then text call and facebook.  Show details

Great phone – I finally had to upgrade from my little flip phone because the sound was so poor I couldn't hear, the battery life was too short and I wanted internet access on my mobile. I chose the Galaxy J5 prime because it looked like great value for money compared to the iphones. It has been great and I am very satisfied with it. It is bigger than I really… Read more

want as it is a bit clunky to carry around but it's size makes it easy to use. All the functions are great, it's very good to use hands free in the car, the camera is great and I love the speaker. It's the first time I have had internet on the phone so that's great. I would recommend it as great value for money, great apps and easy of use. Very satisfied overall with the phone.

Perfect phone for a beginner – I bought this phone for my mother who never had a smartphone before. She loves it and finds it easy to use. It has 16 GB memory and takes SD cards as well for storage of videos and photos. It has multilanguage support and can be converted to any language. The colors used int he phone as nice and pleasant. I bout the phone for under $400 and feel good that I bought it outright.  Show details

Perfect! – This phone is very light. The phone has a stack android good for those who love android. The phone provides regular update. The processor of the phone is decent and also have decent battery life if it is used properly. The only problem with the phone is that it some time does not support chrome cast.  Show details

Lots of features at a reasonable price – I bought this phone for my mother. She loves her new smartphone. It takes great pictures, has ample storage capacity and is very reasonable in price. It is fast enough and she does not get frustrated. The only thing I found difficult is getting a good cover for it as there are not so many options  Show details

Nice phone – The build quality is decent and so far it has been pretty reliable. The camera's ok and the display quality is good. That said, I had a budget Nokia Windows phone before, so admittedly that's starting from a pretty low benchmark and I can't compare it to more expensive Apple or Samsung phones which I've never owned.  Show details

Good to use – It is a phone which is not expensive and enough for daily use, although the quality is not quite good. Sometimes the response of the keyboard is slow. Since the screen size is OK and it is not quite heavy to take, it is a good choice for young people  Show details
