More detailed characteristics And
In 2016, Samsung released one of the most compact devices on the smartphone market: the 4-inch Samsung Galaxy J1 mini. In addition, the J1 mini is the cheapest smartphone from the manufacturer, the price at the time of writing is about 80 USD.
This model has another name - Galaxy J1 Nxt mini, but it appears mainly in other countries. In this review we will try to figure out what this device is.
In 2016, other devices were released, reviews of which you will find here: , , , .
Specifications Samsung Galaxy J1 mini SM-J105H
The technical part of the smartphone is very modest by 2016 standards.
Design
The appearance of the device is very simple, without any frills. It is highly likely that the design was based on earlier budget models. 3 available color variations: black, white, gold. The product is made of matte plastic, the frame is made of metal, which is very pleasing and distinguishes the J 2016 series from last year. Ours was gold in color and the plastic had a pearlescent tint. The design is collapsible, the battery can also be removed. The case height is 121.6 mm, width is 63.1 mm, and thickness is 10.8 mm. It’s sort of a “well-fed” device, but thanks to this it fits more confidently in the hand, given its small width and height.
CPU
The device is equipped with a 4-core Spreadtrum SC8830 (1.2 GHz) processor. The graphics are processed by the Mali-400 MP2 video chip. The solution is budgetary, but generally sufficient for the job. In the interface, there are no noticeable problems with the speed of operation, as well as delays in the operation of applications.
The smartphone can run demanding 3D games, but it is not suitable as an affordable gaming solution due to its small screen. Demanding games like Asphalt 8 and Modern Combat 5, surprisingly, run smoothly, but at the lowest graphics settings. Even on a small screen, pixels are visible in games, straight lines turned into a ladder.
Memory
The amount of internal memory is 8 GB, of which slightly less than 4 GB is available to the user. For installation regular applications this volume is quite enough. Interestingly, you can install a MicroSD with a capacity of up to 128 GB in the memory card slot: as a rule, this is not yet found in public sector phones. Thanks to this feature, the Samsung Galaxy J1 mini is an excellent candidate for replacing an MP3 player and voice recorder. After all, this volume is more than enough to store a substantial collection of music tracks.
But with RAM it’s not all fun. Its volume is only 768 MB, while the generally accepted standard in modern budget devices is 1 GB of RAM. 
Battery
Battery in this smartphone modest: only 1500 mAh. But given the specifics of such devices, they are usually not used for gaming, watching movies and surfing the Internet. Therefore, energy consumption is more gentle. The classic scenario for using such a smartphone is calls, SMS, occasionally social media, listening to music from time to time, a calculator and an alarm clock as needed. In this mode, it will calmly last one day, perhaps up to two days. It all depends on the intensity of use.
Also, the situation is partially saved by the “Maximum Energy Saving Mode”. When activated, it automatically reduces the brightness of the screen backlight, optimizing performance running applications, and restricts their access to the network in sleep mode.
Camera
The smartphone has 2 cameras, but here they are most likely for show. The main one completely lacks such basic features as autofocus and flash. For its level, it shoots tolerably well in daylight, but without autofocus it’s very difficult to get a more or less clear shot of text. The camera has settings, and they are most likely just for show. Having selected the “Sport” mode, the main camera took this picture:
Click on the photo for full size
And below is a photo without the “Sport” mode. There isn't much difference. 
Well, here’s a close-up shot with the main camera, in sufficient lighting:
The maximum video recording resolution is HD (1280 x 720), recorded at a frequency of 30 frames/s.
The 0.3 MP front camera is even worse, but it’s ok for video calls.
Take a photo on the front camera: 
Display
The display diagonal is only 4 inches. This has been a rarity lately, and buyers may and would like to purchase a modern, compact device for calls and work, but the choice is small. With a modest diagonal, the resolution is 480 x 800 pixels, but this device doesn’t need more. The pixel density is 240 ppi, which is very low. Individual pixels can be seen. if you look closely.
The display itself is the most budget-friendly and is made according to TFT technology. Viewing angles are small, so if you look not at a right angle, but even slightly to the side, the colors will become very dark.
The brightness reserve is enough for comfortable use indoors, as well as in places where direct sunlight does not reach.
Network communications
The smartphone is dual-SIM, both slots are designed for Micro-SIM cards. One SIM can work in 2G networks, the second - in 3G. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules are present, the device can be used as a pocket portable access point. Navigation is supported by GPS and GLONASS.
The manufacturer saved on the proximity sensor, but there is software solution, which blocks the screen during a call (the screen remains lit during a call). To unlock the screen during a call, you need to tap it twice. You can accidentally use your ear or cheek to unlock and open the notification curtain, turn on Bluetooth or other functions. This is in theory and according to reviews on the network, in practice it was not possible to unlock the screen with the ear.
Sound
The main audio speaker hole is located on the back panel near the camera. Stock maximum volume enough to hear a call in a not particularly noisy place. There are no complaints about the quality and volume of the sound of the conversational speaker.
operating system
The OS is Android 5.1 Lollipop. The system is not overloaded with unnecessary elements, the shell is quite simple, so it does not slow down. There are no plans to update to Android 6, but Android version 5.1 is sufficient for this device, and even earlier OS versions would be sufficient.
Pros and cons of Samsung Galaxy J1 mini
Pros:
- compact size due to small display;
- support for flash drives up to 128 GB;
Minuses:
- low screen quality;
- the camera does not have a flash or autofocus;
Our review of the Samsung Galaxy J1 mini SM-J105H
The smartphone may be of interest to those who do not need a camera, high performance and at the same time the need for conversations on the phone without using a headset. Considering the cost, the Samsung Galaxy J1 mini absolutely cannot compete with other devices in the lowest price segment with the same characteristics. Yes, it is cheaper than all other smartphones from this manufacturer, but more expensive than its competitors. So Samsung, in this device, has hope for the brand and so far for the lack large quantity fresh compact smartphones on the market.
This device is good for:
- using instant messengers if the user has small fingers and will accurately hit the letters;
- for people who fundamentally like compact smartphones and this is the main criterion when choosing;
- for a child whose first smartphone;
- for a music lover who is not picky about sound quality. You can install a 128 GB card on the device, which can accommodate many tracks.
It’s safe to say that everything in this smartphone is budget, but it works well and without any slowdowns.

Today we have to figure out what kind of reviews the Samsung J1 Mini receives from its customers, and in general, understand what kind of phone we are talking about. After all, as practice shows, before making a purchase you should pay attention to the opinions of the owners and the main characteristics of the device. This is the only way to fully understand how high-quality the gadget is in front of the user. Considering that modern world full of different phones, choosing is difficult. All mobile phones have pros and cons. They are emphasized precisely by reviews. So what can we say about the Samsung J1 Mini?
Short description
First, you should pay attention to what this device is. The Samsung J1 Mini receives varied reviews, but overall they are positive. After all, the proposed gadget is nothing more than a phone with new version operating system based on Android.
This is a compact and modern device to support communication with the whole world. Samsung J1 Mini performs all standard functions regular smartphone. But the advantage of the device, as many point out, is its size. The proposed phone is compact and small in size, but this does not prevent it from performing all generally accepted functions. What features and characteristics does the device have and what type of reviews does it receive? It's not that difficult to figure all this out.
Dimensions
It is worth paying attention to the fact that the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini receives mostly positive reviews for its size. There are opinions of a negative type, but there is no significant negativity.
The thing is that the phone is small, especially by modern standards. This gadget is ideal for women's and children's hands. Unlike smartphones with similar characteristics, you can use it without any problems, even if the buyer has small palms. It is very comfortable. At the same time, the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini does not receive the best reviews from customers with big hands. It is noted that this smartphone is not suitable for men. It won’t be very comfortable to hold it, that’s why the model is called female.
Device dimensions:
- 63.1 mm - width;
- 121.6 mm - height;
- 10.8 mm - thickness.
Find with similar parameters touchscreen phone It's very problematic now. Some people are not satisfied with the thickness of the gadget. But this indicator is not so critical. In any case, carrying the Samsung J1 Mini in your pockets is convenient.
Screen
The next component is the screen. Another important nuance that people pay attention to when choosing a smartphone. Here Mini" earns mixed reviews. Why? The screen diagonal is only 4 inches, and the resolution is 800 by 480 pixels. These are not the best indicators for modern smartphone. At the same time, do not forget about the size of the device. Taking them into account, we can say that the phone has quite a good display size.
The screen of the Samsung J1 Mini is capacitive and equipped with multi-touch technology. Recognizes 262.14 thousand colors. The image on the screen is good, clear and of high quality. There is a function to auto-rotate the image on the display.
Many people point out that the screen has some shortcomings. For example, the Samsung J1 Mini phone does not receive the best reviews because the viewing angles are not very good. And in bright sunlight it is very problematic to work with the device. It is also noted that the sensor does not have a proximity sensor. This is very inconvenient during conversations. But not critical.
Memory
What other characteristics do users pay attention to? For example, for memory. There is an operational one, which is responsible for the power of the gadget, and there is a regular one, intended for these users.
The Samsung J1 Mini smartphone does not receive the best reviews for these components. Many owners of such devices indicate that this gadget is far from gaming phone. In particular, due to the very small amount of RAM. It's only 768 MB. For powerful games and Samsung programs are not intended for this model.
But with conventional memory everything is much simpler. The phone has only 8 GB of built-in space. Of these, about 4.4 GB will be available to the user. The rest is the space occupied by the operating system. Agree, this is not too much for these users. The Samsung J1 Mini phone receives positive reviews from owners because it can expand its memory up to 128 GB. Not all modern gadgets provide such an opportunity. Therefore, if necessary, everyone can buy an additional memory card of a fairly large capacity and use it.
Processor and system
Important components are also the processor and operating system. There are no particular complaints about them. Moreover, many are satisfied with these indicators. The thing is that the Samsung J1 Mini, the characteristics and reviews of which are presented in the article, has a 4-core processor. The power of each is 1.2 GHz. Not too much, but not too little either. This is enough to work with the phone quickly and without lag.
The operating system is what makes many model owners happy. After all, the Samsung J1 Mini is equipped with Android version 5.1. A relatively new build that most Android fans are interested in. Works quickly, without brakes. The only nuance that is emphasized is the relatively small amount of RAM. Without it it is impossible to use it 100% Android capabilities 5.1.
Battery
The next point is the battery. An important component of every smartphone. The Samsung J1 Mini earns mostly positive reviews for it. Although some emphasize that it will not be possible to work with the device for a long time. In general, the battery lasts about 8 hours in talk mode. In standby mode - up to 3-4 days. But if you actively use the phone, the battery may run out the very next day. Therefore, reviews vary in the information provided.
"Samsung J1 Mini" is a phone that is designed for fairly active users. But it is worth considering that the battery can run out very quickly. At least not faster than most similar phones. Among the advantages, it is also emphasized that the battery is removable. If necessary, you can replace it. And it's not that hard to do. There are a lot of Samsung batteries in stores.
Camera
Of course, the Samsung J1 Mini has a camera. She is only the rear one. There is no frontal one. This solution seems to some modern users not the best move. However, the rear camera shoots at 5 megapixel quality. This is a pretty good indicator. In experienced hands, the camera allows you to take high-quality photographs. She also has disadvantages, but they are not so significant.
The disadvantages of the Samsung J1 Mini model include the lack of autofocus function and flash. Therefore, shooting in poorly lit areas becomes very problematic. These disadvantages must be taken into account by each user. Otherwise, the camera is unlikely to suit you. After all, some people are initially looking for a phone that will take high-quality pictures in the dark. "Samsung J1 Mini" is not suitable for this purpose.
additional characteristics
It is worth paying attention to the fact that the smartphone is equipped with additional standard functions. What can be attributed to them?
Among additional features highlight:
- GPS navigation;
- voice control capability;
- use of 2 SIM cards;
- 3G network;
- "Bluetooth";
- Wi-Fi.
All this allows you to use your phone with maximum convenience. It’s not very comfortable to work on the Internet due to small ones, but this is not such a big problem. All listed services function quickly, efficiently, without failures.
