Anonymous, 03 Jul 2017But gpu is crap compared to andreno 505/4xxI find that strange....I was looking up this processor yesterday and comparing it to the SD430 (comparing Nokia 5 to J5 2017). The processor is better and faster and is fabricated with smaller transistors so is more energy efficient. But the GPU is worse than the SD 430 - not by much but I was a little surprised. I assumed a better processor led to a better GPU?

      Goodbye "removable batteries" on budget phones.

        Far too expensive for those specs!

            I don't mean this phone isn't good but with this memory, it'll be really troublesome especially when it's touch wiz.

              Expect the price to depreciate over-time. Maybe after a couple of months this phone could be at 230 euros/dollars instead of 280 like now. Same thing happened to the A5 2017.

                More options and competition in the mix.

                  I swear I love that back design better than their flagship's. Remind me a lot of my old Galaxy Note 3.

                    Exynos 7870 is as good as Snapdragon 625 or Snapdragon 450.
                    3gb ram is more welcomed with such a good processor.

                    but the price is too expensive. it's should be replacing J5 (2016) not J5 prime.
