The Samsung Galaxy J1 is a stable but rather simply equipped Android mobile phone. It only has 4 gigabytes of internal memory and no electronic compass. Its camera shoots slowly and only takes weak videos. Its GPS positioning is not very accurate. Good battery. The device requires a SIM card in micro-sim format.

A poorly equipped smartphone with a screen diagonal of just 4.3 inches. The weak display, lack of brightness sensor and compass, low storage space, poor photo quality and a slow processor make the device not really recommendable on balance. 2.18 GB internal memory. Tested under Android 4.4.4.

The Samsung Galaxy J1 is a handy, unobtrusive Android smartphone that masters the basic functions and also takes acceptable snapshots. However, if you are looking for more performance, for example for gaming, or a large, sharp display, you won't be happy with it.
