In a bid to bring the A series' new-found premium design language to the masses, Samsung's E-lineup has managed to maintain the same looks. Lower-grade hardware and entirely plastic build have helped keep the price down, but if you don't look too hard it's still an upmarket smartphone.
Key features:
- Quad-band 2G, quad-band 3G and multi-band 4G, LTE Cat.4 support for download speeds of up to 150Mbps
- 5.5-inch 720 x 1,280 pixel Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen
- Android 4.4.4 KitKat with Samsung's TouchWiz on top
- 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset with quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A53; Adreno 306 GPU
- 2GB of RAM; 16GB of storage, expandable via microSD up to 64GB
- 13MP main camera with autofocus and LED flash; video recording up to 1080p@30fps
- 5MP front camera, video recording up to 1080p@30fps
- Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Wi-Fi Direct and hotspot; Bluetooth v4.0 with A2DP; NFC (model-dependent)
- GPS with A-GPS and GLONASS
- FM radio with RDS and recording
- 2,950mAh battery capacity
Main disadvantages:
- 720p stretches pretty thin on 5.5 inches by today's standards
- No Gorilla Glass protection on the display
- Battery is not user-replaceable
- Android 4.4.4 is not the most recent Android version; Lollipop is in the pipeline though
