Features, Performance, and Reviews for the Galaxy A02
Galaxy A02's size
The Galaxy A02 is 3.0 inches (75.9 mm) wide, 6.5 inches (164 mm) tall, and 0.4 inches (9.1 mm) thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the Galaxy A02, it weighs about 206 oz (206 g). 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 A02, while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.
Galaxy A02's screen
The Galaxy A02 has a 6.5 inch screen. The smartphone has a large, impressive screen, which allows you to enjoy photos and videos to the fullest. It is also very good for writing business documents and doing other work.
The resolution of the Galaxy A02'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 A02
The processing power of the Galaxy A02 is, at 1.5GHz×4(Quad core), relatively high. Its features would position it somewhere between high and mid-level among currently available smartphones, but it will be rather stress-free in terms of using most apps. Most 3D games that don't burn up too much memory should be playable to a satisfying degree for the most part. 2D games should be no problem at all.
The Galaxy A02 has 3GB 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 A02 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 A02's storage capacity
The Galaxy A02 has 32GB of data storage, which is plenty for taking photos, but for people who frequently shoot videos or have lots of games installed, this may not feel like enough space.
Since the Galaxy A02 is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.
The camera function of Galaxy A02
The Galaxy A02 has a 13 MP 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 A02 comes with a 5 MP 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 A02
Overall assessment of Galaxy A02
The Galaxy A02 is a relatively high-performance smartphone. If you plan to use it as your main smartphone, you may find it slightly inconvenient, but within tolerable limits.
