Infomer Me is the Galaxy X-Cover 5 and today I'll go of unboxing along with a quick overview of this device
0:15
So let's pop it open. I'm going to grab a knife, here you go
0:21
Obviously the packaging right here can immediately see as just the most bare minimum that you can possibly get away with
0:29
It's a flimsy cardboard, nothing premium, nothing nice. But then we don't really care about packaging, let's be honest
0:39
Now in here we got some paperwork because Samsung never includes any kind of case
0:47
And yep, I'm correct, it's just paperwork. So heat that to the side, pop out the phone
0:59
It feels extremely light. I thought that it might not have a battery because it did feel too light
1:06
So it comes without, well, not in a device. Here we got some cardboard, whatever
1:13
We got a charging cable. Let me quickly check it. It looks like it's type C, but I just want to make sure
1:21
and yep, it is a type C cable. So type A to type C, which isn't necessarily what Samsung includes right now with their device
1:29
so I assume they're just getting rid of old stock, because this is what the older chargers used to be like
1:38
Nowadays we have, well, the Samsung chargers come basically type C to type C
1:43
so this is not it. Anyway, actually probably should just leave that right here
1:49
just so you can see what's in there. There we go. Let's unpack the battery, which is something that I didn't think I'm going to
1:58
say in 2021 but here we go so can I just like push it out I can I can go good
2:12
good that it a robust phone so I can just toss it around now personally I not a fan of this kind of design of just popping your phone open It does help you with changing out the batteries and all that stuff but I never really like
2:37
especially when you drop the phone and everything just comes apart. It's like battery falls out, the case opens, it's just never fun
2:45
So anyway, now that the battery is in, I can power it on
2:49
So when you're looking at it right now, it looks okay, I would say, but once you actually
2:57
see the device turn on, you'll see that the display isn't basically just kind of trash here
3:02
Number one, it is not an Amelad display, which I'm kind of used to with almost every Samsung
3:07
device, even the budget ones comes with it. This one does not
3:12
But anyway, let's actually get into the specifications. So the display here is a 5.3 inch display with a resolution of 720 by 4.4
3:19
1480p and it's a PLS IPS display, easier said just iPS probably, and it's a 67.7% screen-to-body ratio, so again this will feel super outdated
3:34
And then it has a pixel density of 311 and oh my thought looks terrible
3:43
Gee, those bezels are huge. Yeah, this device Just looking at it right now
3:51
No way Wow So I just checked the date This phone was released this year
3:59
This phone looks like it's at least 5 years old And the design wise
4:04
So anyway Let's go to the setup right here I'll quickly skip through almost everything I can
4:18
One thing that I just literally despise here is Samsung forcing you to connect to Wi-Fi
4:36
throughout a setup of a brand new device. It's not locked. Why the hell would I need to connect to Wi-Fi
4:43
I want to skip it for... Okay fine It not really about the fact of connecting to Wi or not it more about the choice especially when you setting up the device
5:03
You're literally forced into it for some unknown reason. It shouldn't be like that. No other device does it
5:10
There's no excuse for this. There's also no reason for this
5:25
Great. This is going outstanding. I love the devices that just throughout the setup just managed to tick me off
5:39
So while this is doing whatever, for whatever reason, we can go over the rest of the specs
5:46
the specs. So cameras here are just pure and other garbage. As you can see there is
5:50
only single one on the back which is a 16 megapixel sensor shoots up to an 80p 30
5:55
frames again and basically kind of omits the Samsung brand of trying to have the
6:00
best cameras. Even though this device is fairly cheap and not really catering to
6:07
camera and all that stuff I would still like to see something better than 16
6:12
megapixels. For goodness this this costs how much much, 270 euros or yeah something like that it's close to 300. For that price you
6:26
will have a way better for instance a Xiaomi device. Poco basically
6:34
Xiaomi Poco those will blow this phone out of the water and if you're buying
6:39
this because it's the brand X cover as in robust phone this thing
6:46
feels like just a cheap crap that you could break with your hands
6:53
I don't think it's going to survive any kind of fall. It might actually because the bezels here are protecting the almost non-existing screen real estate
7:03
But other than that, this one doesn't feel robust. It's just out of plastic
7:09
Plastic ain't robust. So yeah previous I believe Discoverers did come with rubbery stuff which still I don really feel too robust but this is just This feels like a typical normal phone five years ago It doesn feel robust it just a trash phone from five years
7:27
That's kind of a quick way of describing it. It has nothing to really go for it
7:33
Cameras are crap. Can I now like set it up without resetting it
7:38
That would be amazing. So apart from that, we also have at the front 5 megapixel selfie camera
7:44
Then we have an Ex-Nals 850, 4 gigabytes of RAM, 64 gigabytes of built-in storage
7:51
300, 3,000 milli-on power battery, and 15 watt charging. For this price, this phone is just utter pure garbage
8:01
I wouldn't recommend getting it at all. If you want to have a durable phone or something like that
8:07
just for instance, get yourself a show me device for basically one-third less
8:13
one-third less. They will come out like 200, 250. They'll be significantly better than this in every
8:22
possible way. And for the rest of the money, you know what? You can get yourself a just
8:28
tank case that will protect the phone. The phone will look better, have a better screen
8:33
a bigger screen, better, higher refresh rate, higher quality of the display
8:39
The battery will be better, charging will be better, cameras will be better, everything will be better. This is just kind of garbage that you might kind of
8:46
hand off to your grandma in case that she drops phones. Yeah, this, I don't know. I wouldn't
8:53
really give her that either. So yeah, that means that I wouldn't really want this phone
9:00
If the only the only reason why I would go with a cheap Samsung device, like for instance this one
9:07
would be probably only for the Samsung tags but that is just neither here nor there
9:14
if you're not planning to use the tags which are Samsung brand only
9:18
for Samsung's basically and then there's no reason for to get this
9:23
just go with any kind of other device that will work way better than this
9:27
and that's kind of what I will leave it at not worth the money and that's it
