High-end metal and glass build materials and design
Samsung's Galaxy A range has never been this exciting. Samsung has managed to take a lot of the highlights from the Galaxy S7 and applied them to the mid-range device, which is a great step.Whether it will be able to compete with low price alternative pho...
High-end metal and glass build materials and design, capable processor, well-optimised hardware and software, waterproof, decent camera, great display, superb battery life, affordable
A little lacking in top-end performance grunt
This is an extremely compelling little smartphone, it seems perfectly priced and specced for its niche; to slot in the market where there are people prepared to throw down a few hundred pounds for quality, but who don't want to bother with more phone than...
Flagship-like quality on a budget, Lengthy battery life, Versatile camera
Middling performance
With Samsung's as-yet-unreleased Galaxy S8 already grabbing headlines, the Samsung Galaxy A5 is in danger of having its thunder stolen. Don't disregard this little mid-range handset just yet, though. It's just the ticket if you're not fond of handing over...

Outdated Android, Beaten on specs by cheaper rivals, Camera only works well in good light
The A series used to be the runt of Samsung's Galaxy litter, but things have turned around massively for 2017. The Galaxy A5 is a great-looking, great-performing mid-ranger, with plenty of features you'd normally have to pay the big bucks for. Water resi...

Older software with some annoying additions, fingerprinty AF, battery life so-so
It's so good to see Samsung back on form with a classy, well-rounded handset that'll appeal to younger consumers in particular. The mid-range seems like a hard territory to nail, with the budget manufacturers owning the lower end and the big brands conver...

Samsung's off to a great start in 2017 with this well-priced, well-designed and well-specced Android. It's not going to outshine the S7 (or the upcoming S8), but it more than holds its own in the mid-range class, offering a good experience all round for i...
The Galaxy A5 2017 is a fantastic mid-range phone, with the looks of a flagship and some decent performance and all-round specs. Our only real concern is that Samsung is pricing itself out the market, with just a small difference in price separating this...
