Samsung Galaxy J5 (2017) 16GB 5.2in 13MP SIM-Free Smartphone in Gold (Renewed)

Nice phone

This Samsung Galaxy J5 phone was purchased as a backup, and for listening to internet music stations and sport commentary at home and in the car. The "renewed" phone arrived promptly, safely packaged in a plain cardboard box labelled "Used-Good", with a generic charger and cable. Cosmetically the phone is closer to "Very Good" condition, with just a tiny scratch on the screen not noticeable when in use. The battery was fully discharged when it arrived so first job was to allow it to charge to 100% which took approx 3 hours. I then checked all was working; this is largely intuitive for Android users but the user instruction manual is on the phone under "Settings > User Manual" if needed. The phone I received is running Android 7; the screen icons look a touch dated! Having made sure all was well with the J5 I immediately ordered a suitable phone case - I chose a Lihondar case. (I find my 20th century fingers and 21st century smartphones are not compatible, so having a case on the phone makes it much harder to drop and easier to use). I installed the following apps: TuneIn Radio, Mixcloud, BBC Sounds, The Revival Show, Internetradiouk.com, plus a few others. All work well although BBC Sounds does seem to suffer a glitch now and then. Commentary from the BBC sports website works smoothly. Battery life is perfectly OK for my needs, lasting around three days of on/off use with Bluetooth turned on. Sound quality (what we used to call "tone"!) on the phone's speaker is actually surprisingly good - more pleasant to listen to than my main phone. In summary, after several weeks' use I am very happy with this purchase. The "renewed" J5 phone does all I expected, the condition is very good and the price is reasonable.

Great my granddaughter is over the moon with it , fantastic condition. Love it

Good camera quality and value for money with a good size

This phone stopped working for 1 year. The you tube didn't work anymore because old version. Don't buy

The refurbished phone looks like new, works perfectly but the battery life is abysmal. It is easy enough for an elderly, technophobic relative to use, however just reading the news (no background apps using power) takes the battery from full to fifteen percent in less than an hour. Obviously a battery check wasn't covered in the refurbishment.

Good

OK I dont use all the functions, just calls and texts, but this phone is excellent for my needs. Its a good size which fits in my pocket. I particularly like the keyboard which has letters and numbers on the same display so you dont have to keep toggling between text and numbers. Even for my big fingers the letter / number spacing is very good and i rarely hit the wrong digit. The battery life is excellent. For what is said to be a used phone it was in pristine condition and came with a screen protector fitted. Overall very pleased with this phone

Il telefono è stato consegnato oggi tutto apposto grazie mille

Top Preis Leistung. Das Gerät funktioniert einwandfrei. Bin begeistert. Würde es jeder Zeit wieder kaufen.

Au début, impeccable petit smartphone que j'utilise pour les mails, réseaux sociaux... Je l'ai depuis 7 mois il me semble, et des soucis ont apparu il y a trois mois environ. Écran noir, tactile qui beugue, fermeture des applications. En dépannage, oui, appareil fiable au quotidien sur du long terme, non.

Il était écrit excellent état mais il manque le M de SAMSUNG et une bosse figure sous l'appareil photo au dos de l'appareil juste en dessous ainsi que des traces de rayures importantes sur la coque arrière.

Ich habe hier nicht wirklich viel zu sagen. Für etwas über 100€ habe ich ein gebrauchtes, für mich ausreichendes Smartphone bekommen, das funktioniert. Manchmal merkt man die etwas langsame Arbeitsgeschwindigkeit aber das war zu erwarten. Alles in Allem zufrieden.
