At the time of the start of sales, this device no longer had advanced technical characteristics and was budget phone, built on the Qualcomm QCT MSM7227T platform and running on the Android 2.2.1 Froyo - 2.3.7 Gingerbread operating system.

The date of the announcement of the sale of the smartphone falls on the first quarter of 2011, and it began to be sold in Russia and Europe almost simultaneously.

Samsung Gio was positioned by the manufacturer as a replacement for Nokia touchscreen smartphones running on Symbian 9.4, as well as an alternative to Symbian Anna and communicators running on windows mobile, the characteristics of which were completely inferior to the new public sector employee, which ultimately allowed him to conquer its market share.

Samsung Galaxy gio successfully survived competing devices and did not lose its relevance thanks to the efforts of the authors of unofficial firmware, the last of which on this moment is Android 4.4.4 (KitKat).

Packaging and delivery set

Samsung Galaxy Gio was delivered in a small bright box, which contained the package, which was the accessories necessary for working with the smartphone.

The standard configuration of the model lacks a headset, which is partially compensated by the presence of a 2Gb memory card.

Contents of delivery:

Samsung Gio GT-S5660.
Battery EB494358VU with a capacity of 1350 mAh.
USB charger ETA0U10EBECSTD.
USB cable Samsung PKT-199.
2Gb microSD memory card.

The delivery set is a standard set of budget accessories that do not differ high quality, but have successfully worked for 3 years since the purchase of the smartphone.

Design and materials

The device is made in two colors, designed for different audiences, white (Silver White) and gray-black (Dark Silver).

Samsung GT-S5660 is one of the faceless smartphones of the Galaxy series, completely made in a case of different-sized plastic.

The build quality of the gadget is on high level, which is impossible to say about the quality of the materials themselves. The body of the state employee has seriously worn out over the time since the purchase.

Using the device without a case leads to the rapid appearance of small scratches on the screen and clear paint stripping on the case.

The only element that resists the rapid loss of presentable appearance, is an back cover apparatus made of corrugated plastic.

The device weighs 102 grams with a case size of 110x57x12 mm, which makes it convenient to use the device with one hand.

The materials of the case and the transparent protective plastic that covers the upper part of the case do not collect fingerprints and can be easily cleaned with a regular cloth.

The build quality of the Gio GT-S5660 is not satisfactory. On the front panel of the device there are two touch-sensitive and one mechanical keys that perform the functions of a “call context menu applications ”,“ back ”and“ home ”.

On the left, at the end of the device, there is a volume rocker and a place for attaching a strap.

On the right - there is a slot for a micro-SD memory card and a power button.

At the top of the device there is a 3.5 mm jack for connecting headphones, at the bottom there is a microphone hole and a micro-USB connector.

Software

The smartphone initially runs on the Android 2.2.1 Froyo operating system, but its official update to version 2.3.7 Gingerbread is supported.

Unofficial firmware allow you to install Android 4.4.4 (KitKat) on this gadget. The device is based on the Qualcomm QCT MSM7227T chipset with a core clock speed of 800 MHz.

The graphical characteristics of the device are presented by the video accelerator Adreno 200.

Main characteristics of the model:

Qualcomm QCT MSM7227T 800 MHz processor;
Graphic video accelerator Adreno 200;

The technical part allows you to run "light" games on the phone and almost all available for this device, software.

Screen

Display Samsung Galaxy Gio has a real physical size of 68x45 mm with a TFT-LCD matrix of 320x480 pixels.

The screen reproduces up to 16.7 million colors and has low readability in the sun, as well as relatively small viewing angles. The multi-touch display supports two simultaneous touches.

Cameras

A budget camera module with autofocus and a resolution of 3.15 MP allows you to take pictures up to 2048x1536 pixels. Video recording is realized at 320x240 pixels and is mediocre.

The device does not have a camera button, so the shooting takes place exclusively through the phone software. Galaxy Gio camera is suitable for photographing documents and ordinary photos in good lighting conditions.

Sound, player, radio

The device does not use the most loud speaker, but it allows you to listen to music in proper quality.

Using a 3.5mm jack to connect a headset or headphones solves this problem. The smartphone has Internet and FM radio, which allows you to listen to both online and analog radio stations.

Samsung Galaxy Gio does not belong to the class of multimedia combines, so its multimedia capabilities correspond to the budget class of devices.

This problem partly solved by using third-party players and high-quality vacuum headphones.

Battery

The battery used in the smartphone EB494358VU with a capacity of 1350 mAh allows you to freely use the device during the day.

In everyday use, the device showed acceptable autonomy, which can be very different due to the installed software and the version of the operating system.

Internet

The Internet capabilities of the smartphone are well developed and allow you to fully use the device for Internet surfing, chatting on social networks and watching streaming video in low resolution.

Conclusion

A budget phone, namely a phone, as its main features in the world modern smartphones are pushing the Galaxy Gio into the category of additional devices.

Using this device as a main smartphone is difficult due to its low hardware qualities.

The device is suitable for schoolchildren, students and other people who do not require their device to follow the trend of increasing MHz (s) and screen resolution.

Due to the large number of users this phone custom firmwares for it are still being released, which makes the device relevant as a second device to this day.

Samsung Galaxy Gio is the most affordable smartphone from Samsung today and takes pride of place in a rich lineup. It was first announced in January 2011. The low price of the device (about $ 170 at the time of this writing) made it very popular both among young people and among fans of budget, high-performance devices. The S5660 is equipped with an 800mhz processor and is controlled by operating system Android 2.2. Detailed specifications are given below.

Smartphone appearance, screen

Externally, the device looks like other devices in this line. Same rounded edges and elongated shape. The build quality is 4+ and the plastic used is pretty good quality. On the back, you can see the grooved surface, as well as the camera and speaker.

Iron

The "Gio" has a very good Qualcomm MSM 7227 processor, which by default operates at 800 MHz. This is quite enough to complete the vast majority of tasks, and even allows you to play with almost all modern toys. The RAM is 256 MB, which is actually a kind of standard for devices of this class. But the volume of the built-in ROM is rather meager, only 158 MB. But this is not a problem at all, since you can purchase a microSD card with a capacity of up to 32 GB and safely store large amounts of music and movies in your smartphone.

Multimedia and camera

The phone has a 3.2-inch display and a resolution of 320 × 480 pixels. The camera is equipped with autofocus and is capable of taking pictures with a resolution of 2048 × 1536, which means it has 3.2 million pixels. Video recording is supported at 15 frames per second. And finally, it is worth mentioning communications. It has everything you need: Wi-fi, Bluetooth, GPS, USB, as well as 3G. In fact, this is the entire necessary set.

simple convenient phone from its class for your money

The model is adequate for its price. Quick response of the sensor, the programs do not slow down, the network catches perfectly, the battery holds up well. No frills design - everything you need in a set. The pipe is not for 3D games, for a more serious person. Android is an indisputable advantage, I will not spread, everything is clear here.

Nice appearance, Build quality (no creaks, no backlash), Compact size, Nice-looking display.

Normal phone. Stylish design, music sounds loud. The price is excellent. Bought in 2012. For 9000. Wi-fi catches well. Fits in the hand. This is not a samsung galaxy s 4.

Reliable, has been working for 3 YEARS !!! Reliable case, fell many times on the asphalt, as a result I have several small scratches.

Stylish design, attractive price. Bright display. This is where the pros end.

It seems to me that the main advantage is the filling that you get for that kind of money! In terms of components, the telephone is approaching Galaxy ace, but the price is very different;). Assembled soundly, without annoying backlash. The materials create a pleasant impression, the mechanical buttons work clearly ... The sensor is generally worthy of special praise - I have not seen such responsiveness in the budget price category. The screen is clear in almost all lighting conditions, pixelation is not as painful for the eyes as on 240x320 displays. Virtual keyboard it is convenient even with men's fingers, she seems to know exactly where she wanted to press, even if she missed a little :) The organizer, as in all devices on android, is very good and convenient. Slim and stylish design - here the Samsung, as always, is at its best. For those who want to get drunk

Sometimes buggy (rare), little internal memory

2 years ago

Permanent screenshots by themselves;
-at the beginning of a call for some time (~ 20 seconds) the voice is incorrectly encoded: only some iron sound is heard without parsing words;
-the phone very often the phone is switched on during a conversation. Yes, yes, it turns on: you talk and silence. you look at the screen, and the phone turns on!
- the battery in the high activity mode keeps the charge from 100% until it is turned off for about 2.5 hours. In the morning I charged it, came to work, 1-1.5 hours of talking, and the phone turned off!

2 years ago

sometimes the sensor does not respond to pressing

2 years ago

The screen fades in the sun to the point that almost nothing is visible.
It takes a very long time to recover after a flight on an airplane (it takes a long time to find a roaming network - up to 20 minutes)

2 years ago

I can't say well about the battery. It discharges and really quickly. It's an android. It slows down awfully! Many games do not load! The camera is normal. The cover scratches quickly! The pattern on the cover is some kind of dots. They had all the dirt. it is white. It would be better to buy a black one))) You understand, it gets dirty quickly.

2 years ago

All the same, 180 mb internal memory it will not be enough, especially such applications as facebook, which eat up about 20 MB of memory, with a basic set of programs (which are written to the phone's memory and not to SD), the memory runs out often, you have to clear the cache, so sometimes some programs cannot be updated, such like google maps, skype, etc. RAM also happens that there is not enough, it starts to dull, it is treated simply by resetting memory in the task dispatcher.

1. Periodically loses the network. I still do not fully understand: the reason is in the device or possibly in the operator, although the old Samsung worked much more stable.
2. Brakes ... I already suspect that I installed some kind of unsuccessful application, which in background eats resources so much that sometimes the response reaches a few seconds after pressing the button, this is very infuriating.
3. Sometimes it is impossible to write a message, you have to minimize the window, and then enter again.
4. The battery would be a little more powerful.

2 years ago

It runs out VERY fast, it can last a maximum of a day, but that's what most phones have these days.
-Android platform - for someone it may be a plus, but for me a phone on such a platform turned out to be very difficult to master.
-Touch keyboard. Virtual keys so small that it is almost impossible to write SMS on the go
-Sometimes the phone seems to live its own life: if you want to set an alarm, it goes into the notes, if you want to call, it opens an SMS message window. The back button is sometimes transformed into a screen capture function. Enrages!

2 years ago

Due to the fact that the case is quite thin - the protective touch "glass" (more precisely, plastic) is very close to the display, therefore, excessive pressing on it can irreparably damage the display itself (although over time you get used to the sensitive sensor and stop pressing hard :)). The battery could be stronger, 2 days with an average load and that's it (buying a reinforced one saves the situation). The video shoots 320x240, I really hope - they will fix this defect with the new firmware.

2 years ago

1) The sensor is very sensitive. After a while, it starts to glitch and flip through the pages in the book or turn on applications (it was the sensor glitch that did not find any viruses)
2) The kernel version is prehistoric, so you can not hope that you will have good games and the power that people admire when talking about Gio, you will not need.
3) A small amount of built-in memory, only on which applications are installed. To install on a memory card, you need to get root rights, so if you need a game phone, then save money and buy a more powerful android device.
4) Lags often, even if the one who says not to take cheap stuff is not clear from where I’ll say right away - I bought it in an elite salon in the city center, the one who says that this phone is super duper doesn’t know anything about it, or doesn’t
