  • Excellent screen, Great quality
  • No image stabiliser, Unimpressive CPU
  • The OnePlus 3T looms over the Galaxy A5 here: it's a similar price but performs so much better, and its camera is better too. There's a strong element of brand loyalty here: people will buy the A5 because they want a Samsung, not necessarily because they...

  • The one fly in the ointment is that the phone doesn't come with Android 7 Nougat out of the box, which is mildly disappointing, but that doesn't detract from the fact that the Samsung Galaxy A5 is a great mid-range smartphone. The current price of around...
