Smartphones with a price of 1 million are now equipped with hardware specifications that are quite capable to meet the needs of today's smartphone users such as playing games, photography activities to be active on social media. The buzz made by smartphone vendors today has not given satisfaction to smartphone lovers in the country.
After Xiaomi, Nubia and several active local vendors presented a 1 million smartphone on the market, it is Samsung's turn to present a smartphone with a price of 1 million, which is named Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro (2018). Playing in this segment, the latest Samsung smartphone comes with a charming display and good performance in its class.
But is it only the screen and performance that is the mainstay of this latest Samsung smartphone? For more details, we review more deeply.
Sturdy and comfortable in your hand
Entering the lower class market segment, the Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro is equipped with a design that is not much different from its predecessors, this device comes with a rounded display in each corner plus a metal frame that makes it even more solid when gripped.
Present with the size of the body dimensions that are not too large make this device quite comfortable to hold, especially for women. For the back cover that is embedded even though only equipped with polycarbonate material but still provides its own comfort when used.
Speaking of the design configuration that it displays, the Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro still attaches the physical home button between the faces exactly below the implanted screen. In addition to the home button available, Samsung pinned 2 capacitive buttons in the form of a back button and recent apps.
While at the top of the screen is embedded the front camera sensor plus LED flash lights to provide additional light when taking selfie actions in low light conditions. On the right side of the Samsung device embed the power button, while on the left side of the device is a dual volume button.
Turning to the back, Samsung pinned a rear camera that has a slightly different design like its predecessors where camera sensors and flash lights are placed in a horizontal position with glass protection. Right on the side of the embedded rear camera Samsung attaches the speaker hole.
Carrying the concept of a battery that can be dislodged, the inside of the Samsung device attaches a dual SIM card slot and a microSD card slot separately like other Samsung phones.
Another functionality that comes with the design of the Galaxy J2 Pro is the audio jack hole located on the top edge of the device, while the microUSB 2.0 port hole is right on the bottom edge which is not only a media for charging data but can also be used as a data transfer media via PC or notebook .
Super AMOLED, Ordinary Screen Density

Not only that, thanks to this screen technology makes the Galaxy J2 Pro comfortable to use for a long time when using it playing games or streaming video.
Even so it does not mean the quality of the screen displayed has met the standard with the price tag implanted. This device has a 5.0 inch screen size with only qHD screen resolution (540x960). When viewed from the pegged price tag, Samsung should provide a better screen resolution. The screen density that is owned by the Galaxy J2 Pro only reaches 220 ppi. When compared to a cellphone in its class, the density it has is quite far. Just say, Nokia 2, Nubia M2 Play and Sharp R1.
Not only is the screen density an unpleasant issue, this device also only responds to 5 touch points. Where the competitors have gone further with the ability to respond to 10 touch points. In addition, this device is not equipped with a 2.5D glass coating that adds value when used and makes it look more attractive. Which is also quite unfortunate, this device is not coated with a protective glass that has good quality like Corning Gorilla Glass. The function of the protective glass on a smartphone device has an important role that not only protects the glass layer from scratches.

Whereas to control the condition of the device starting from the rest of RAM, internal memory, security to the battery. Users can access the "device maintenance" application. In this application, users can see the condition of the performance of the device whether it is good or weak.
Good Performance with 1.5GB RAM

Starting from the lower class chipset support, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 425, support for only 1.5GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory and a battery with a capacity of only 2600 mAh. If paired with equivalent prices such as the Nubia M2 Play and the Sharp R1 repertoire of hardware that is embedded in the Galaxy J2 Pro is very far above the two devices.
But how is the performance produced, to test it Kellytech uses a benchmark application and plays quality games that require high graphics performance.
From several tests using the benchmark score application that the Galaxy J2 Pro can get is quite good. Starting from the Antutu application, GeekBench, 3D Mark to PC Mark. The scores obtained by each benchmark application are enough to meet to accommodate daily activities. Performance when used daily activities are also still fairly good.
