The applications run at a decent speed, and one can enjoy some heavy gaming as well. It comes with a 13MP back camera which is quite nice if used under bright light.

Talking about the OS, this phone comes with an Android 5.1 with the Samsung’s UI on top. It offers a great interface for the users and is loaded with some of the basic applications for everyday use. It tends to run smoothly, and there are no lags observed. Offering a 3000mAh battery, I don’t think there is anything to complain about.

Overall, it is a decent smartphone with a great display as well as good battery life. The only thing we miss is the ambient light sensor which is something every smartphone is offering. The price of this phone is somewhat on the higher end if compared to the other competing phones and there are a lot of other features being embedded into the same.
