Features, Performance, and Reviews for the Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB

The camera function of Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has a 13.0MP main camera that lets you take photos and videos in a quite high resolution. You may be a little dissatisfied with it in some situations, for example when you want to capture scenery in very high resolution or print out beautiful photos, but this should not be an issue you run into very often.

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" comes with a 5.0MP pixel camera, which is a standard level. It's perfectly fine for selfies, but may be not as satisfying if you wish to take photos of large numbers of people, or make printouts.

The battery performance of Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has a relatively large battery with 2800.0mAh. The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has a good battery life compared to other smartphones. You won't feel stressed even if you spend all day surfing the web or on Twitter and you can also watch videos or play games on the go without having to worry too much about the battery. If you watch videos or play games for too long, however, you might want to watch your battery a bit.

Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB 's size

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" is 73.3mm wide, 146.2mm tall, and 9.7mm thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB", it weighs about 172.0g. It feels a little heavy when held with one hand. It may tire your hand out if you operate it for too long a time.

In giving an overall rating to the "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB", while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.

Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB 's screen

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has a 5.0inch screen. The iPhone X has a big screen, which very likely won't ever trouble you. Just be aware that it's not a very good size for writing long blocks of text.

The resolution of the "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB"'s screen is pretty much standard. It shouldn't be a problem for normal use, but it might prove to be a bit dissatisfying for those who wish to better enjoy their photos, videos, or games.

The CPU performance of Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has a run-of-the-mill processing power of 1.4GHz×4(4.0-cores), so while you'll be able to play 2D games with ease, it's a little lacking for 3D games. Outside of games, the phone runs most things quite smoothly, but certain apps can cause a bit of slowdown.

The "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" has 2.0GB of RAM, so it has plenty of space. In rare cases this amount of RAM might not be sufficient, but there shouldn't be too much stress on the machine with this amount.

The overall operational speed of the "Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB" rates as a mid-range smartphone. While you will probably not experience much sluggishness or lag with normal use, we recommend a phone at least one tier higher if you want to enjoy games or videos.

Galaxy Xcover 4 16GB 's storage capacity
