Camera problem

Steven Ramlal (Mar 13, 2018) on Gadgets 360

The camera in this phone has no focus. Taking a photo of any text or anything with fine details will result in a blurry mess.

j1 mini prime too much agro

Greg Heitman (Dec 2, 2018) on Gadgets 360

this model doesnt have proximity sensor it only has an Accelerometer an thats all as far as sensors go and as such your faced with a double tap to unlock screen when making calls which after double tapping comes back almost immediately which if your using the keypad for options etc is a constant annoyance and i highly suggest you give this model a miss as its not possible to dispose of the d tap thing even if youve set lockscreen to none it still appears when you make a call and cant be switched off, sadly ive only found out after i spend 90 pound 4 one and from what ive read its very cheaply made not the best in the west an not worth spending good money on

J1 Mini review.

Liam Dodds (May 16, 2018) on Gadgets 360

Okay, where to start... This phone is by far the worst phone I've ever had the displeasure of owning. I'm not going to list the pros other than the fact that it's a smart phone and it supports most apps, it has none. CONS: First off, the memory is so insufficient, it can barely store the operating system. So if you plan on storing anything on it make sure you have a spare memory card. I think this might be a manufacturing error, but the phone does not connect to the internet via WiFi or Mobile Networks if the phone is screen locked, I have no clue... The camera is a total write-off, as another comment pointed out. The screen is totally unresponsive if you have even the slightest amount of moisture on your fingers. I'm flabbergasted by the quality of this phone and it for sure will be the last Samsung I purchase.
