Abstract: 'Tis the season! Or rather, 'Twas the season, because the end of 2017 flew by us while we were putting the final touches on this buyer's guide. So, we are clearly a bit tardy for a holiday shopping guide but that was more or less intentional on our part...
Samsung's alphabet soup is making less and less sense. Here we have the Galaxy J5 that's got a premium metal build, a frugal 14nm chipset, an excellent Super AMOLED display, and Samsung's latest software. How's that lower midrange?Well, it is. And it jus...
The updated Galaxy J5 is a solid performer. Battery life exceeded our expectations, the new design is favourable over its predecessor, and its camera is impressive for a handset of this calibre.The only issue is that price hike. For £140, last year's J5 f...

It's a shame to end on the slight downer of the camera because it's the only area where the Samsung Galaxy J5 puts a foot wrong as far as I'm concerned. Usually, when I've reviewed a budget handset, I'm extremely eager to get back to my own phone, but in...

Excellent Super AMOLED display, Lengthy battery life, Cheap
Camera has disappointing issues with exposure, Average performance
The third-gen Moto G just retains its place in our budget smartphone affections thanks to its classier looks and build quality as well as its clean version of Android and waterproofing. Even so, the J5 has a lot going for it and is a very good alternat...

Only 10.1GB available space, MicroUSB instead of USB Type-C
Samsung Galaxy J5 (2017) brings many improvements compared to its successful predecessor and this makes it more than accomplished model. First of all, the device comes with an entirely metal design which is not always seen in this price range. There is a...
