Introduction
:
The Samsung
Galaxy Ace Plus includes a 5 megapixel camera to capture video and photos with,
while it also offers a powerful operating system and impressive display. The
handset features a good range of preinstalled applications also, along with
enabling you to download more to your phone
Design
We get sick of comparing every phone with the iPhone, but there
is no mistaking the fact that the Samsung Galaxy Ace looks remarkably similar
to the iPhone 3GS. It
has the same rounded edges, the same gloss edging, the same size 3.5in
touchscreen and the same physical home button below the display. The result is
a phone that is light and comfortable to hold, and the Galaxy Ace also feels
well put together despite its largely plastic construction. We like the rear
battery cover, which uses a grippy surface that makes the phone easy to hold,
and the volume and power/lock buttons are well placed, and easy to press.
The Samsung Galaxy Ace's 3.5in capacitive touchscreen is responsive to touch, but its low resolution of 320x480
means it isn't as crisp or clear as more expensive phones, particularly when
displaying text. The screen is also tough to see in direct sunlight and
although it's bright at full volume, the lack of an ambient light sensor is an
annoyance.
Software and performance :
Since the Galaxy Ace S5830 recognizes WiFi networking standard
802.11 b/g/n and employs the Android operating system (v 2.2), it is capable of
not only recognizing local public hotspots so one can stay in touch with the
Internet for up to 11 hours on one battery charge, but it can also be
integrated into a home network that uses an older router than may only recognize
802 b/g, which means that you can use and update this smartphone as part of
your home network. It also makes heavy use of Bluetooth technology so you can
sync other devices to it or you can sync it to your PC via Bluetooth. The 5 MP
camera offers you instant image sharing and with the proper amount of memory
one can also handle some fairly sophisticated videography chores.
Since the Android operating system is tied to Google and its wide
variety of open apps, one can have access to 200,000 or more apps at this
moment. From the manufacturer, it is equipped for to keep in touch with email,
texting and SNS so that one can stay instantly in touch with not only friends,
family, but also the office through texting and web apps offered.
Google,
though, since it is available for PCs and smartphones because of its tight
linkage to Android is likely to maintain a slight edge in this department.
Speaking of edges, the S5830 offers predictive texting as it fills in the
blanks after one has keyed one or two letters. The S5830 also offers SWYPE
technology that lets one hit one of two spots on the QWERTY-like keyboard
touch-screen app and the Ace fill in the letters one is typing, another type of
predictive typing mode. The sensitive touch-screen quickly updates as the Ace
runs on an 800 MHz processor and one can install up to 32 GB of microSD memory
so one has enough memory to make up for the lack of a super-high-speed
processor.
The Ace is
a compact smartphone that offers one a high-degree of flexibility and web integration
thanks to its operating system in a package that is 4.2 inches by 2.4 inches by
0.4 inches and that weighs 3.5 ounces. It also features built-in GPS capability
with A-GPS support so that with access to Google Earth and Maps, available
through Android apps, the Ace can also act as a sophisticated navigation device
as well as a smartphone.
Battery life is
reasonably good: the Galaxy Ace will easily last a full day, and even stretched
close to two days during testing, though this will depend on your usage
patterns.
Multimedia :
Browsing the web is a decent
enough experience with fairly rapid rendering of webpages and smooth motion as
you roam round and zoom in and out of a page. Sadly Flash isn't available so
you won't be able to watch online videos but performance would've been so ropey
as to not make this a big deal.
Beyond this, the
Ace is well equipped with apps for keeping yourself organised, finding out
where you're going, and entertaining yourself. And if you want more there's the
Android Marketplace to dive into.
Calling threw up no
causes for concern with acceptable call quality from both speaker and earpiece.
It's not the best, but perfectly adequate. Battery life also seemed to be at
least on-par with a couple of days average use being what you'll get from a
full charge.
The Galaxy
Ace is samsung galaxy ace review less Galaxy phone in the range Android
flagship smartphone Samsung galaxy ace style review from Samsung and is a very
nice looking phone with Samsung galaxy ace review a premium look and feel with
its high gloss finish metal trim strip. The Galaxy Ace runs Android 2.2 (From),
which is the same as most current Android phones, although Samsung galaxy ace
s5830 review version 2.3 (Gingerbread) would have been the icing on the cake.
As usual, Samsung galaxy ace review Samsung Android coincided with its own
custom user interface, TouchWiz 3.0, a user experience tool. TouchWiz adds
several improvements to the first Android experience, including the closer
integration of contacts with social network data Samsung galaxy ace review .
The LCD
screen on Samsung galaxy ace s5830 review the Ace is a good size of 3.5 inches,
which is appropriate for this price, although similarly priced HTC Desire has a
larger samsung galaxy ace review 3.7-inch screen. The screen of 320 x 480 pixels
resolution is on the low side though.
The rest of
the material in the Ace is also decidedly average range. The 800 MHz processor
is no slouch, but the 158MB of internal memory, samsung galaxy ace review the
number of requests that can be stored is limited. The memory can be expanded up
to 32GB with a memory card, but we always like to have more samsung galaxy ace
s5830 review integrated on the device memory. The 1350mAh battery is adequate,
samsung galaxy ace review but the Android phones really eat the battery would
have been nice to have seen a more powerful battery on board the Ace.

However,
Ace is a powerful phone samsung galaxy ace s5830 review with many features
including a music player, FM radio with RDS, assisted GPS with Google Maps, and
access to the full range samsung galaxy ace review of applications from the
Android Market. Connectivity ticks all the boxes, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB and a
3.5mm headphone jack. Internet access samsung galaxy ace review is also fast HSDPA
3G. Internet browsing is a very good experience with the combination samsung
galaxy ace style review of a fast processor, fast data access and a large
screen to work well together. Again, however, samsung galaxy ace s5830 review
the limited resolution of the screen is a challenge samsung galaxy ace review,
with the text being harder to read than other Android phones.
The Ace is
equipped with samsung galaxy ace review a high-end camera. With a 5-megapixel
sensor and autofocus and LED flash is capable of taking good pictures for a
camera phone. You can also record videos of high quality, samsung galaxy ace
s5830 review but not HD resolution.
The Ace is
samsung galaxy ace style review priced at around £ 20 per month on contract, so
it is comparable to other Android phones like samsung galaxy ace review the HTC
Desire. Even if it's a nice phone, we choose the desire on the Ace, it seems
that HTC can continue to samsung galaxy ace s5830 review dominate the market
for mid-range phones Android for the foreseeable future.
