Great model

Experience using the phone: several months

The advantages of the phone - I got it for free - this is the main thing
-fourth android
-good assembly
-there is a divine letter e on the keyboard
- quite loud speaker
-single core processor I consider it an advantage because it consumes less electricity, there is enough RAM
- free memory in the phone 2 GB
-protective film included
-there is a mode similar to a white list that can be configured according to a schedule
- both me and the interlocutor can be heard well
- reliable reception of the network signal. Disadvantages of the phone: -there is no built-in function to turn it on/off according to a schedule, in order to install the “scheduled shutdown” application you need root rights, to do it you had to dance with a tambourine for more than an hour.
-The alarm does not work when the phone is turned off.
- based on the first two disadvantages, you have to keep the phone on all the time, but you can turn on the scheduled blocking mode, and if the white list is empty, then no one will be able to get through at night, short beeps will be heard at the other end of the line.
-The camera is rather poor, there is no autofocus.
-micro SIM cards. I had to run around the offices to remake the SIM cards. Maybe it would have been easier to cut them out from regular ones, and at the same time the contacts would have been preserved, but I’m not sure that would have worked.
-No GPS receiver and 3G
-the battery lasts for 3-4 days in standby mode, with almost no calls and without turning on Wi-Fi. The problem with all smartphones is the high consumption of electricity even in standby mode. while surfing the Internet this phone Discharges right before your eyes: 3-4 hours and that’s it.
-I didn’t find any suitable application for automatic recording conversations. they all record approximately the same way: when listening to the file, it is impossible to make out anything, some kind of squeaking of chipmunks, as in accelerated playback.

Comment about the phone:

my first and probably last touch phone/smartphone.
They gave it to my mom at work, when they saw what kind of brick she was walking around with, she gave it to me. She is uncomfortable using the touch screen, just like me. so we both race with push-button ones. Now I don’t use this smartphone much, it’s lying on the windowsill, with a SIM card stuck in it, so I can make calls from it at least once a week long distance. I’m experimenting on it with obtaining root rights, with firmware and all sorts of applications. It seems to me that this phone has a soul, and it feels unnecessary, and I kind of understand it, I even feel sorry for it a little (maybe these are signs of autism, I don’t know). 4 inches is a bit heavy compared to a push-button one, and it doesn’t fit into every pocket; on the other hand, it’s not enough to be able to follow letters with your fingers or watch/read something. By the way, the sensor is not very responsive; sometimes you have to poke it several times on one letter. For comfortable browsing on the Internet, when I can no longer sit, I have a tablet, 7 inches is optimal. In general, I believe that most people don’t really need smartphones, they just pay tribute to fashion. As for the price, for the same money you can buy a smartphone of another brand with newer hardware, even taking into account the fact that the price recently dropped by as much as 25%. iron is iron, the main thing is that calling is convenient, you can hear it normally, that the reception is good, which is not something you can find on every cheap Chinese device these days, but Samsung still holds its own in this regard.

TFT IPS- High quality liquid crystal matrix. It has wide viewing angles, one of the best indicators of color rendering quality and contrast among all those used in the production of displays for portable equipment.
Super AMOLED - if a regular AMOLED screen uses several layers, between which there is an air gap, then in Super AMOLED there is only one such touch layer without air gaps. This allows you to achieve greater screen brightness with the same power consumption.
Super AMOLED HD- different from Super AMOLED high resolution, thanks to which you can achieve 1280x720 pixels on a mobile phone screen.
Super AMOLED plus- this is a new generation of Super AMOLED displays, differs from the previous one by using a larger number of subpixels in a conventional RGB matrix. The new displays are 18% thinner and brighter than displays made using the old PenTile technology.
AMOLED- an improved version of OLED technology. The main advantages of the technology are significantly reduced power consumption, the ability to display a larger color gamut, reduced thickness and the ability of the display to bend slightly without the risk of breaking.
Retina-display with high density pixels, designed specifically for Apple technology. Pixel density per Retina displays such that individual pixels are indistinguishable to the eye at a normal distance from the screen. This ensures the highest image detail and significantly improves the overall viewing experience.
Super Retina HD- the display is made using OLED technology. The pixel density is 458 PPI, the contrast reaches 1,000,000:1. The display has a wide color gamut and unsurpassed color accuracy. Pixels in the corners of the display are smoothed at the sub-pixel level, so edges are not distorted and appear smooth. The Super Retina HD reinforcing layer is 50% thicker. It will be harder to break the screen.
Super LCD is the next generation of LCD technology, it is characterized by improved characteristics compared to earlier LCD displays. The screens not only have wide viewing angles and better color reproduction, but also lower power consumption.
TFT- A common type of liquid crystal display. Using an active matrix controlled by thin-film transistors, it is possible to significantly increase the performance of the display, as well as the contrast and clarity of the image.
OLED- organic electroluminescent display. It consists of a special thin-film polymer that emits light when exposed to an electric field. This type of display has a large reserve of brightness and consumes very little energy.

When we decided to take the Samsung Galaxy Star Plus gt-s7262 for a test, we expected to see an outdated monster that could not be “trained”; in fact, the phone turned out to be pleasant with its advantages, but also, of course, disadvantages. I was pleased with the presence of two SIM cards, the presence of GPS, sane software and, of course, a wide screen, although not best quality, but still with good color rendering, the eyes did not get tired from the screen. In general, the phone does not fly, the weak processor and RAM, if you are going to play modern toys, buy yourself another smartphone, the sound in the headphones is not the best, but not the worst, for the price the device costs, we’ll even say good. The battery is weak, although the consumption of the Samsung Galaxy Star Plus gt-s7262 is small, but still the capacity is 1500 units, this is not enough, although a full day can go without charging even using the device to its fullest. And, most importantly, there is no 3G support, think about it, but there is Wi-Fi.

A phone is simply needed to make calls and surf the Internet via Wi-Fi, but if you need a workhorse that you don’t mind at all, then a phone will do just fine. You’re not going to take option E as an additional option, either, and if you don’t have money for the device, it’s the worst. In general, a good price/quality ratio.
