Great design, Bright and beautiful display
No wireless charging, Outdated software
Samsung has taken a lot of what makes the Galaxy S7 great and applied it to a phone on a tighter budget. If you want the best of Samsung but can't afford the flagship, the Galaxy A5 may be designed for you...

We take away two things about the S7 and the new A5 after using both for a while: these are two very good phones, but they are also different in more ways than is apparent by just looking at the two from aside.Yes, both have a refined, modern design with...
Great design: solid build, comfortable size, nice heft, Water resistance is a great extra, Excellent battery life and quick charging, Very good image quality in daylight, Excellent onscreen keyboard, great typing experience, Support expandable storage via
A bit overpriced, Subpar video rec quality, lack of video stabilization results in very shaky videos, Runs on a 1yearold Android version (6.0 Marshmallow), Performance is a bit stuttery, especially with more intense apps, No LED notification light
The Galaxy A5 (2017) is such an interesting device: it's designed to near perfection with a stylish curved glass back and metal frame, and has the water-protection that only more expensive phones have.Samsung knows this and has also increased the price of...

no OTG, USB 2.0 only, body SAR could be lower, no dual-SIM, PWM, weak system performance, slow eMMC storage
The new 2017 version of Samsung's Galaxy A5 (SM-A520F) is in no way inferior to its competition - the Korean manufacturer delivers a really good smartphone. Its successful design and, above all, its outstanding battery life are convincing. Although the pe...

Premium design, Smooth performance, Well designed UX, Strong display
Out-performed by similarly priced phones, Fingerprint magnet, No 4K video recording
It's not a perfect mid-range phone, but it consistently hits all the key notes you'd want a device in its class to, and it does so very well. It also does an excellent job of distilling down some of the main draws of the Galaxy S7 flagship, so if you're l...
