The inexpensive Samsung Galaxy J3 runs the current version of Android and takes nice daylight photos.
An extremely inexpensive device with parts to match, the phone nevertheless performed better than I expected, but never stellar.
Battery life was strong, it ships with the current version of Android(6.0.1) and its daylight photography is good enough to post online despite the camera’s low 5-megapixel resolution.In the short term, the J3 will serve wallet-watchers well enough, especially if you plan to use the phone lightly. Light users will do fine with Samsung’s entry-level Galaxy J3, but you’ll want a higher-powered phone if you plan to keep it around for two years or more.
