Galaxy S5 is considered by some fans to be the last "real" smartphone Samsung... The phone has its advantages: expandable memory with a microSD card, a waterproof case, and a removable battery are important criteria for many buyers. With Galaxy S5 neo samsung launches a reissue of the classic, which has many benefits. Samsung backers should like this, though certainly not everyone. Galaxy S5 neo can be obtained by paying from 22 thousand rubles.

Samsung Galaxy S5 neo: Galaxy S5 reissue

Samsung Galaxy S5 neo: what's new

The S5 neo frame now has a thicker finish that both looks better and is less prone to external influencerather than the cheap chrome finish of the original, which began to peel off after a short time. The back cover looks a bit more understated now, although Samsung has retained the basics of its design.

A good solution is to remove the stub uSB port - on the original S5, with daily use, it could be pretty annoying. The Galaxy S5 neo is IP67 certified and therefore water and dust resistant. Samsung saved strengths Galaxy S5 neo: back cover removable, the battery is replaceable, and the memory is expandable using a microSD card.


Body: looks better than the original

The strength of the Galaxy S5 neo

Samsung is no longer installing Snapdragon on the Galaxy S5 neo, but its own Exynos processor. He works for clock frequency 1.6GHz, which is less than the 2.4GHz that the predecessor processor ran on. But galaxy processor The S5 neo has 8 cores instead of 4 and is built on a 64-bit architecture.

In practice, we don't notice any difference in performance: the Galaxy S5 neo runs smoothly and launches apps quickly. New processor also has a positive effect on time autonomous work... The S5 neo, with a constant 2800 mAh battery, lasts about one hour longer while surfing. Other features include 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage, Wi-Fi ac, LTE Cat6, NFC and heart rate monitor. On the other hand, there is no longer a fingerprint sensor and an infrared transmitter.


USB port: annoying USB dongle removed

Display and camera

The 5.1-inch OLED display has about the same brightness (380 cd / m2) as its predecessor. The resolution is also the same - 1920 x 1080 pixels (Full HD). However, the contrast has dropped from 175: 1 to 146: 1, which is still a good value.

When buying, you have to put up with the obvious deterioration in the quality of the camera. Despite the fact that the resolution of the matrix remained unchanged (16 megapixels), the photos are much less juicy and lively. In addition, there is more noise in the pictures, and in low light, the picture quality drops even faster than previous model... Despite the loss of quality, the camera for this price range remains quite normal - except that comparisons with the original, the S5 camera, may not stand up.

Updated system with forced applications

The Galaxy S5 neo will ship with Android 5.1.1 and the latest TouchWiz skin. In general, Samsung keeps the system pleasantly light - after all, 11 GB of 16 GB remain free - but many of the software functions of the former flagship are gone, including advanced gesture control. Annoying tradition: again there are a number of pre-installed samsung appsthat cannot be deleted. Even some third party applicationsfrom Microsoft, for example, you cannot uninstall.


Rear panel: cover still removable

Samsung Galaxy S5 neo: alternative

If you can invest about 3000 rubles more in the purchase, you will get a Hi-End smartphone: LG G4 offers a 5.5-inch display with QHD resolution, a capacious replaceable battery, and 32 GB of internal memory, which can be expanded using a microSD card ... In addition, the camera belongs to the category of the best phones in our ranking.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo smartphone is an inexpensive but highly productive version of the flagship "five", released a year after the announcement of the base model. Interestingly, the announcement took place only in 2015, after the release. Other interesting fact is that Samsung has started galaxy sales S5 Neo in Europe before the official announcement of the device. The model did not last long on the market, as it was supplanted galaxy series A. The starting price was a whopping 470 euros, but was subsequently significantly reduced. It was practically not supplied to Russia, it was not very popular. Nowadays, it is almost impossible to buy this smartphone, unless ordering from abroad somewhere on eBay. Externally, the Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo is a classic remnant in the spirit of the Korean giant. Currently, such modern models are almost never made, except in budget versions. In terms of its electronic "stuffing" Galaxy S5 Neo is quite good. There is an eight-core Exynos 7580 processor operating at a frequency of up to 1.6 GHz, and a graphics accelerator - Mali-T720. The smartphone screen has a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, which corresponds to the "original" one. the screen diagonal is also 5.1 inches. In terms of wireless communications the device still looks pretty good: it has 4G LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v4.1, GPS and NFC (though without Samsung Pay support). The Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo was released in three colors: black, silver and gold.
