MOBILE OVERVIEW AND KEY FEATURES
Before starting the review note this thing "If you have bought this handset or if you are a samsung fanboy then you would find my review disturbing to some extent.So please, Only read this if you want Honest and Unbiased review ".Mean no harm
Samsung Galaxy Grand prime 4G hasn't created much of the buzz as some others in the same price range.Possibly its because of the low specification it has, compared to some specs crazy Chinese devices.Its true that on papers this handset is not that appealing,but the real life experience is much better.As it is from a well established brand,you don't have to think twice about the quality.
First of all,this handset is in tough competition with mi 4i and moto g3 .At the end of the review i would let you guys know which one to choose.
REVIEW IN DETAIL
------------------------------
#Design - Perfect size considering the fact that it has the 5 inch screen.The build quality is awesome despite being all plastic.Its very light and perfect size for single handed use.But its again the usual design that we see in every other samsung phone.(Just some minor tweeking here and there)
#Lollipop- It been updated to the newest version of Android and this phone is very responsive! And it should be receiving an OTA (Over the Air) of upcoming lollipop builds.The Touchwiz is a total modified version of stock UI. It handles the OS pretty good.But i am pretty much toward the stock ones.
#Camera - This has a 8MP camera and I am not much amazed at the clarity of the pictures that I have taken with phone.At some extent of zooming the images turn out to be pixalated.But still its a great camera but not the best for the price.The video recording capability is surprisingly good and i really like it. The selfie is wide angle one with good quality output.
#Display - On paper it has qHD PLS TFT capacitive touchscreen with 960 x 540 pixels resolution.The quality is nice,clear and crisp.Its not a HD screen but you won't find any difference while comparing with HD screen until you look closely,at which the pixels are visible.The sunlight readability is good but wasn't that better than my Lumia 730 nor the Mi 4i.
#Gaming:Did perform good while gaming,Tried asphalt 8 and Modern combat 5 and it handled it flawlessly.Not much of frame drops nor Unusual heating.
#WiFi/3G /4g(Internet): Connects to any WiFi and the signal strength is excellent.Also the mobile data access speed is very fast.So,no issue even if you have less coverage.Didn't test the 4G part yet :(.
#Heating-Gets warm occasionally but not much of heating.Usually occurs while surfing internet and charging.But i guess its because of bad software and hardware calibration.So,waiting for the OTA update. .
#Phone call clarity. - No matter what my location using this phone for phone calls the clarity of calls is loud and clear whether on the phone's speaker, headset etc.
# BATTERY LIFE: I got excellent battery backup no matter what apps are running in background.The older generation one was also a beast in terms battery life.The onscreen time is above average.So,keeping the screen resolution low ,helped to increase the battery life.
# MicorSD expansion upto 64GB -Pretty much needed for heavy smartphone users.
I Use this 32GB memory card which works like a charm http://amzn.to/1Iw3U6b (You can find my review there also)
#Sadly the official ROM don't support OTG.but XDA developers claimed to get root access and making OTG support.
#Bluetooth Speed and Performance - The Bluetooth paired quickly with several devices and copied files at a great speed.
#Cover for this phone - Couldn't find a good one yet.
Conclusion:
----------------
So,is it worth a buy over the competition?-If the competition is Xiomi Mi4 or moto g3 then the answer will be NO.
But If you don't have extra money to spend or if you can't get both of them then Grand prime would be really classy and i am sure yo wouldn't regret buying this.Samsung has got one of the best after sales service in the world.The customer satisfaction rate is really high.
Still i wouldn't be stunned if you buy the other two. (source)
