Posted by Andrew Jackson on December 30th, 2015

With lot of options available in the smartphone market, everyone wants to buy a phone with latest features at affordable prices. The year 2015 saw a lot of medium range smartphones entering the Indian market. These budget phones no longer have inferior features and are well equipped with superb features like fingerprint scanners, high RAM, full HD display, good battery life, great user experience, 4G connectivity and more. Indian as well as Chinese smartphone manufacturers like Micromax, Karbonn, Xiaomi, Asus, Lenovo etc are providing handsets with great features at very low pricing and are giving tough competition to major brand players like Samsung, Sony, HTC, Nokia, Apple to name a few.

Samsung which was known for its premium range and high-end phones, has also ventured into budget-friendly and multi-use mobile segment with its economically priced J-series. Samsung J5 price is quite reasonable with unmatched specifications and is best suited for budget and brand conscious buyers.

The device delivers superb camera performance with 13MP rear camera and 5MP front camera along with new camera user-interface as in Galaxy S6 and S6 edge. It also offers 5-inch Super AMOLED display. It has powerful configuration supported by 1.2 GHz Quad Core Snapdragon 410 processor coupled with 1.5 GB RAM. The handset is equipped with removable 2600 mAh Li-Ion battery which provides uninterrupted full day battery life on medium usage along with “Power Saving Mode” (provided in all J series phones) which improvises the battery performance and reduces power consumption on 4G network by 40%.

Undoubtedly, Samsung Galaxy J5 is the perfect phone in low budget but other brands like Lenovo, Panasonic, Motorola, Karbonn, Micromax have also come up with good budget mobiles which can also be considered as they offer high-end specifications at low pricing. The buyer can also check Lenovo A7000 price or newly launched Moto G Turbo price and compare their features and select the right model which fits their requirement.

The device will supposedly have good hardware specifications like 5-inch SUPER AMOLED display, good battery life, powerful configuration with 64-bit processor and user-friendly Samsung Touchwiz UI.
