Samsung’s financial results for the fourth quarter of 2014 years clearly show that the South Korean manufacturer caught a strong shortness of breath. Turnover generated by mobile division this quarter fell by as much as 64 percent. year on year. This forced the manufacturer to revise its plans for 2015, which results is a reduction of the number of models available on the market of smartphones. It seems that this is a good trend of development, especially if a limited number of models will go also greater attention to detail.
This idea perfectly implements a new line of smartphones – Galaxy A. The tests took the lowest and most affordably priced model in the series, or smartphone Samsung Galaxy A3. Can directed toward good looking and turn the metal casing Samsung’s latest losing streak?
Set
In a small, blue box outside the phone we find the charger with removable microUSB cable with an intensity of output current 1 A, which allows you to fully charge a smartphone in about 2 hours. Besides, we get a pin for removing cards and microSD nanosim and a standard for Samsung intrathecal headset with remote control and microphone along with three pairs of interchangeable rubber bands, each pair in another size.
Design
The South Korean manufacturer came to the conclusion that going in the direction of aluminum and high quality workmanship housing will allow him to re wkupienie in favor of consumers. Until now, quite controversial and what would not be here talking, cheap plastics have been used not only in the cheapest budget models, but also in the vast majority of the more expensive devices. Samsung was behind it repeatedly strongly criticized and it seems that finally yield to the pressure. The latest flagship Koreans already on the aluminum structure, which is supported on both sides by scratch-resistant glass. For almost three times cheaper Galaxy A3 dealing with front panel protected by scratch-resistant glass Gorilla Glass 4, the metal side frames and made of frosted plastic whistle. All the elements are folded almost perfectly, and used the back of the plastic without any suspicions. Definitely nothing to complain about, especially when we recall the previous monsters Samsung.
This and not other structure forced the resignation of Samsung’s designers yet removable back cover, which translates into a straight line to the lack of replaceable battery. This also resulted in the transfer of slots and microSD card nanosim on the right side of the phone. They are now just below the power button. Volume keys landed on the left, and microUSB port and headphone jack are placed on the bottom edge of the casing. We can also find two microphones, one at the top and bottom. The front contains the logo of the manufacturer, speaker phone and a screen, under which the place were three buttons: the physical menu button and two touch-sensitive, responsible for switching between applications and return. They are highlighted in white, and you can adjust the backlight time or turn them off completely.
The rear panel comes standard with protruding beyond the housing lens, LED illuminate the photo and covered with a metal mesh speaker. This speaker, although quite powerful, is effectively limited by its unfortunate location. Placing it at this point makes it very easy to overpower him scraps of material in the pocket. Definitely better idea would be to put it on one of the side edges of the phone.
Samsung’s new smartphone and you can not refuse beauty. The combination of the glass surface of the display with beautifully contoured aluminum frame simply has to like it. You can also see that here also taken care of the smallest details, such as a nice stroke volume keys and the corresponding hold the phone in your hand. Comfort one-hand operation definitely a positive surprise, especially for a device of not-so-small screen diagonal. This was made possible thanks to proper profiling of the aluminum frame and compact size ratio of 130.1 to 65.5 to 6.9 millimeters. Noteworthy is unusual slenderness, because the 6.9 millimeter exactly as much as the thickness of the latest iPhone 6. And just as in the case of Apple, so here rear camera lens protrudes slightly over the housing, which is caused by the physical dimensions of the sensor.
It is impossible not to mention also for almost featherweight weight of the new Samsung, which through the use of even thinner and more resistant Gorilla Glass Glass 4, lightweight aluminum and plastic quality is only just over 110 grams. Given this, and the slenderness of the new Galaxy can forget that we have any phone in your pocket. This has both its good and bad sides – but it seems so much more graceful structure will appeal to the representatives of the fair sex, though, and men should not complain.
