Excellent Samsung phone for those on a budget
Date of this review: 11-17-2018. I'm the type of guy who goes through phones like snack food, lol. But I actually ran into a major problem when trying to port my number from Cricket to Total Wireless and then with a Total Wireless phone I already have but due to a human error on my part (not total wireless's) I lost my number and my service from when I was on Cricket so I basically panicked and went out and took a chance on the Samsung galaxy J3 Orbit phone. And it's actually been really awesome. Now most people prefer a bigger sized phone and I'm one of those people but unfortunately I didnt have a lot of money so The Orbit phone was what I could afford for the time being. Now in terms of specs? Pretty surprising since on the inside of the box it says "quad core" but in the CPU-Z app it shows a Samsung Exynos 1.35ghz Octa Core 7885 processor for all you tech savvy people out there, 2GB of ram. 16GB of memory (about 9.10-9.20GB left to the user). 5 inch 720p display (looks awesome even though its not AMOLED). Android 8.0. Will it be upgraded to Android 9.0 in the future? Who knows. And as for call quality? Excellent. People hear me loud and crystal clear. No distortion and volume can be very loud. Speaker phone is loud enough but wish it was louder. but call quality is awesome. In my opinion anyways. Also the phone DOES have BOTH 2.4 and 5GHZ Wi-Fi which is AWESOME. the battery is 2600 mAh and I'll be honest, the phone itself runs absolutely awesome no problems at all for me, but the battery isnt the best. If you're the type of user who watches a lot of YouTube, and plays games alot and records alot of videos or on social media a lot, then you're gonna find yourself charging the Orbit a few times in a day at least. But if you're a super light user and you only watch some YouTube videos and only a game or two and make some calls and a text or two and only check social media here and there then the battery will last you plenty. Also there's the 8MP rear cam which takes really good pictures in my opinion. No they wont blow your socks off quality but for the price theyre really good. I love taking pictures so I'm happy. 1080p/30FPS video recording is what you'd expect. Not the best but it gets the job done. Also audio in the video recording isnt the greatest. Not bad by any means buy a bit tinny and almost no bass. I tested out the phones mics and the noise canceling mic on top of the phone doesnt like bass too much. So keep all that in mind if you're going to a concert or whatever. The 5MP front cam also does 1080p/20FPS, but again the quality is about what you'd expect from a budget phone. now for the Instagram or Facebook or snapchat users? The phones cameras will do you just fine. No issues. Now i will say this. If you are the type of person who likes/loves to video chat using Facebook or Google Duo? beware those apps WILL kill the battery FAST. So either have another battery with you or keep the phone on the charger while video chatting. Video chatting with my girlfriend using Google Duo works awesome though. No problems. She heard me very clear and the picture was very good. Now when you go to turn the camera to the rear to show someone something it takes a few seconds which is a bit annoying. But it is what it is. Oh and some will wonder, "can you move apps to the sd card"? Yes and no. For most apps yes but it's going to depend on what the developer does with the app and if they decide to let you move to app to SD card or not. But apps like Best Buy and Target can be moved to sdcard. ANYWAYS wow my review is very long but since theres no actual reviews a nice long one is helpful. Oh and there was a software update when I turned the phone on and it was a security patch that updated the phone to Sept 2018. No other patches have come through yet. Anyways I did a review on this phone on YouTube. Just type in Total Wireless Samsung Galaxy J3 orbit (2018 version) and if you see GTX4790, thats me. Questions or comments let me know on my channel. Sorry for the super long review. Ive had NO issues at all with the phone.

Surprisingly Excellent
This phone is an incredible value if you can get it on sale for 60 or less. It works every bit as well as some $250 phones I've had recently. Battery life is very good. I expected lag due to the 2gb of ram, but it functions very smoothly. I think it must be optimized well because it runs a processor made by Samsung themselves. Really no complaints about it at all.

It works
This was a good promotional offer. I got phone free when I purchased a $50 plan. The phone is the most basic Samsung. You have to manage how you use storage space. Don't expect the snappiest performance but if you're ok with that,. It's good choice. I think total wireless service is not the greatest. They are on the Verizon towers. I've had some reception problems and more dropped calls than I care for. I would recommend this phone and service with those things in mind and if you're in a bind or LTD budget.
