The 5-inch Samsung Galaxy On5 is a relatively compact MetroPCS phone that gets you solid overall performance at an affordable price.

Back

The Samsung Galaxy On5 is a traditional black rectangular slab with a removable polycarbonate back cover.

Display

There's a 5-inch, 720p display on the front. It gets bright and has a special Outdoor mode for sunlight visibility.

Apps

The phones come pre-loaded with MetroPCS bloatware and has limited internal storage. Fortunately, it can use a microSD card.

Top

The 5-megapixel camera on the back is subpar; color reproduction is dull and uninspiring.

Bottom

A microUSB charging port and a 3.5mm audio jack can both be found on the bottom.

Left

The sides of the phone are made of faux metal. The volume rocker can be found on the left side.

Right

The phone's back can be peeled off to give you access to a removable battery, a SIM card slot, and a microSD card slot.
