Chipset: Mediatek MT6765 Helio P35 (12nm): Octa-core (4x2.35 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.8 GHz Cortex-A53); PowerVR GE8320.

These gut impressions are confirmed by the benchmarks. As you can see in the graph below, Geekbench 5 has it performing quite a bit worse than all the rivals I highlighted in the beginning, but it’s an especially poor performer compared to the three Chinese branded handsets – two of which use a superior MediaTek chip. Frankly, I don’t think I’m alone in preferring phones with just one really good camera like the Pixel 4a, rather than needing to keep up with the Joneses with barely used peripheral lenses. But regardless, the Samsung Galaxy A12 has four: a 48MP (f/2.0) main camera, supported by a 5MP (f/2.2) ultra-wide lens and two 2MP (f/2.4) snappers for depth-sensing and macro photography.

Estimated against the usage profile of an average/typical user. Independently assessed by Strategy Analytics between 2021.12.08–12.20 in USA and UK with pre-release versions of SM-S901, SM-S906, SM-S908 under default setting using 5G Sub6 networks (NOT tested under 5G mmWave network). Actual battery life varies by network environment, features and apps used, frequency of calls and messages, number of times charged, and many other factors. Battery capacity(mAh, Typical) - Typical value tested under third-party laboratory condition. Typical value is the estimated average value considering the deviation in battery capacity among the battery samples tested under IEC 61960 standard. Rated capacity is 5,000 mAh. Actual battery life may vary depending on network environment, usage patterns and other factors. Display Size : Measured diagonally, the screen size is 6.5" in the full rectangle and 6.4" accounting for the rounded corners. Actual viewable area is less due to the rounded corners and the camera cut-out. Arguably the cameras on Samsung Galaxy A12 are some of the best this phone has to offer. That main 48 MP, f/2.0, (wide), AF surely is. Alongside it is a 5 MP, f/2.2, 115˚ (ultrawide) lens, a 2 MP, f/2.4, (macro) and a 2 MP, f/2.4, (depth). If I am being honest, a 4K video recording would have been great here. Unfortunately video recording quality is only up to 1080p@30fps on both the main and the 8 MP, f/2.2 front-facing cameras. Get also to play around with features such as LED flash, panorama, and HDR. Display

User memory is less than the total memory due to storage of the operating system and software used to operate the device features. Actual user memory will vary depending on the operator and may change after software upgrades are performed. Much of that is down to the outstanding things other manufacturers are doing on a budget, but Samsung’s entry-level handsets have been able to hold their own in the past. It’s hard not to pin the disappointment entirely on the MediaTek Helios MT6765. Exynos and Qualcomm handsets never felt this sluggish. The network capacity and data transfer speed may be reduced while dual SIM cards are used at the same time.Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Z Filp3 5G is rated as IPX8. IPX8 is based on test conditions for submersion in up to 1.5 meters of freshwater for up to 30 minutes. Not advised for beach or pool use. Not dust resistant. The 6.5-inch edge-to-edge screen featured on the Galaxy A12 makes it an appropriate model for users that prefer big screens but don't like dishing out high prices that are usually associated with these models. Combined with the four lenses on the rear side, the phone gives off a relatively premium feel at the first impression. However, this feeling goes away as soon as you touch its plastic body, operate its slow processor and interact with its 720 x 1,600-pixel resolution LCD display during your daily tasks. Battery Life and Performance Network: The bandwidths supported by the device may vary depending on the region or service provider.

Tipična vrednost testirana u eksternim laboratorijskim uslovima. Tipična vrednost je procenjena srednja vrednost kada se uzme u obzir odstupanje u kapacitetu baterije među uzorcima baterija ispitanih prema standardu IEC 61960. Nominalni (minimalni) kapacitet iznosi 4900 mAh. Stvarni vek trajanja baterije može varirati u zavisnosti od mrežnog okruženja, obrazaca korišćenja i drugih faktora. User Available Memory: User memory is less than the total memory due to storage of the operating system and software used to operate the device features. Actual user memory will vary depending on the operator and may change after software upgrades are performed You also shouldn’t expect miracles of composition as soon as the light levels drop. As these pictures of my garden at sunset show, as soon as the light goes, so does the image quality, with plenty of noise and blur replacing the crisp detail of the daylight shots. This is a problem that all phone cameras face, to be clear, and the Samsung Galaxy A12 isn’t the worst offender by a long shot. Rear camera: Wide (main): 48 MP, f/2.0, 26mm, AF; Ultra wide angle: 5 MP, f/2.2, 123˚; Macro: 2 MP, f/2.4; Depth: 2 MP, f/2.4.

Memory: RAM and internal memory capacity may vary by country. MicroSD card sold separately. Actual storage available may vary depending on pre-installed software. Basically, the delay between pressing the shutter button and a picture being taken means that anything that’s prone to any kind of sudden movements – think birds, babies, cats or dogs – will almost inevitably be a blurry mess by the time the phone finishes capturing the image. It’s here in spades.

S Pen Pro and S Pen Fold Edition sold separately. Only use the Samsung S Pen Pro or the S Pen Fold Edition designed exclusively for Galaxy Z Fold3 5G. All other S Pens or stylus pens not designed for Galaxy Z Fold3 5G (including those by other manufacturers) may damage the screen. Measured diagonally, the screen size is 6.5" in the full rectangle and 6.4" accounting for the rounded corners. Actual viewable area is less due to the rounded corners and the camera cutout. Bought 2 years ago, it is still a smartphone that can keep up with the current models. It doesn't always have to be the latest and most expensive smartphone. I do not miss any function. The battery lasts all day (5000 mAh). It has enough memory (64 gb) for numerous apps. I have installed a lot of apps and it still works smoothly and relatively fast (4 RAM memory). If it slows down, you should run the memory cleanup and optimisation under Device Maintenance. Very good photos for the price (with 4 lenses, main camera with 48MP). With the macro camera you can shoot detailed photos. For example, I was able to photograph a bumblebee in flight to the flower and it looks like a professional. The selfie camera with 8MP is okay. The display is big enough at 6.5 inches, so I often stream videos and movies on it. Only that the display is broken after 1 fall despite armor film, annoys me (also with previous Samsung phones). Right out of the box, the phone feels sluggish with stuttery animations and apps that take a couple of seconds to open. Granted, it does catch up with itself after a period of use, but it’s certainly not ideal for multitasking, despite the relatively generous 4GB of RAM it’s endowed with.
