overall this phone is great, but not the spec. with touchwiz, 2 gb of ram is not enough. the system consume a lot of memory. i bet iphone 5s will much snappier than this phone
hhhh seriously!!! 16Go of storage and a hybrid sim/sd card slot, i don't record hd or 4k videos, at all, I don't have many pictures in my phone, nor heavy apps or games, and I still have to use external storege for my 16Go smartphone!!!
Wich regions have the dedicated microSD slot ?
Looks like a great mid range phone. I loved My a3 2016 and will probably get this later on (though I prefer the design of the previous model).
The A series, though not powerhouses, perform very smoothly and are quite snappy. Allot better optimised Compared to Samsung previous midrange offerings.
Sebstin, 16 Jan 2017Why its not being released in US?Because it would poach more profitable sales of the S7/S8, which are carrier subsidized/financed.

Nice review. Question now is if this is much of an upgrade over an S5 Mini which is cheaper and has similar specs plus a heart rate monitor.
So basically, it's just a little bit redesigned version of a Galaxy S3!?
Ok... It's fine, only if it would be priced fine too... But it's not.
Dear GSMArena, the X Compact has stereo speakers.

PLAYER SLAYER, 16 Jan 2017Except for the water-proofing and always on display. Try finding that on a non South Korean phone.For low level phone, waterproof is advantage but AOD is useless. Use AOD and charge the phone 2-3 times a day, are you a kid? have a time to do that? Think bro!
It could be such a lovely little phone but an old 13mp sensor without ois/manual controls and a mediocre t830 mp2 gpu really hold it back.
