Samsung Galaxy Stellar Review
Share:
Our main disappointment with the Samsung Galaxy Stellar is with images that were captured while using its 3.2MP camera. Every image that we took outside not only is extremely overexposed, but has a “cool blue” hue to them, which makes them look like they were taken by a camerphone from 2006, not a new smartphone in 2012. Inside images are also below average with a lot of visible grain, and there’s no built-in flash to help with low-light images.
Videos can be recorded at a maximum resolution of 640x480 VGA. Colors are blotchy and the video look fuzzy overall – again not a surprise. Is a half-way decent camera & 720p camcorder too much to ask for…even if it is a budget phone?

Multimedia:
One thing that we are glad to see on the Galaxy Stellar is that it is using the same Music player that is on the Galaxy S III. Naturally, you can list your music by playlists, albums, and artists, but there are also about a dozen preset equalizer settings, or you can manually set your own. The music quality through the rear speaker isn’t that great, but with a set of earbuds connected (or Stereo Bluetooth headset), it sounds just fine.
The standard Android Gallery will show all of your pictures and videos categorized into folders for easy viewing. We were able to playback all of our MP4 H.264/263videos from 320x240 to 1280x720 resolution without any problems, including DivX and XviD videos.

6.5 is a bit low. does each con really worth 1.75 points?

"Let’s see is the Samsung Galaxy Stellar can do better."...with the ratings i saw before i even read the first word in the review, it's funny going through that line!!

That's way too simplistic a method of looking at how the review score is tabulated. Try reading the entire review. There are a lot more cons than just the two listed in that section.

Now, now...'LAUGHABLE camera and video recording quality' is a l'le too cruel...it's a 3.2 megapixel sensor. What do you expect from it?? And you would expect a 720p video from it? Come on!
