Edgarjessop's review of Samsung Galaxy Ace

“Good basic entry level smartphone”

★★★☆☆

written by Edgarjessop on 29/01/2014

As my first smartphone this seemed like a good bet as it was available free of charge on a low monthly tariff with calls, sms and data. First impressions are good, and they have the balance about right between size/weight so that it fits comfortably in your pocket while having a bright, clear screen. The touch function works OK though can be a little slow to respond sometimes. It comes with a number of apps pre-packaged and others available via google shop. Satnav is included and works a treat. Battery life is very good compared to other smartphones, lasting about a week on standby or a full day in use.

It's not all sweetness and light though. The camera has no zoom facility and seems slow to focus, making it hard to photograph moving subjects. The biggest problem is the limited onboard memory which in practice severely limits the amount of apps you can load before getting the dreaded "insufficient memory" message. All in all good VFM but rather limited in performance by today's standards.
