      mr. cyclone, 14 Sep 2016But my phone can move to sd card, and my phone is marsmallowI have aall the screen shots for the A3 2016 on EE and the messed up home screen after restarting the phone. If you just add apps and then move them to the SD card and do not turn off your phone, all looks well. But just try turning your phone off and back on again (restart) and you will see the problem.

Im ... moreFor my phone, there is no different in charging time before and after update. It is about 1.5 - 2 hours for full charging from 0%. My phone was experienced a temporary lagging about several minutes after update. I followed many guides that said we should do factory reset after update. You could try without factory reset and tell us about your experience.

            How come I still haven't got the marshmallow update? My girlfriend's got the same phone as me and she got the update today... I thought we'd be getting it at the same time since we both have the same SM-A310F model. Any explenations, guys?

                Not a good phone. The physical phone is great, the battery life in general use is around a day and a bit. But DO NOT ADD ANY APPS TO THE SD CARD! The whole system looses apps off the home screen for around 25 hours before suddenly adding them after a restart. And this happens even with a single app. Samsungs response is "Do not move apps to the SD card". So android 5 is all wrong as it allows apps to move. Or the phone is a complete bust.

                      Anonymous, 13 Sep 2016How is the battery? Is it nice? Andd.. is it have a heating problem?Battery is average. If you just use it for call & text a few times a day, the battery can stand about a week. But if you use it for browsing and using instant messaging (Whatsapp, BBM, Line) that always use data connection, each day must be charged at least once.

                      A3 2016 does not have any heating problem. For browsing, chatting, or playing simple game, the phone stays cool. For hardcore gaming (3D and active Internet), the phone becomes warm.

The A310F model is not supposed to be used in Argentina. For Argentina, use A310M model. Sure A310F will works for several LTE frequencies in Argentina, but for full compatibility, you should buy A310M model.

                                My phone was updated to Marshmallow last week. After update, the phone runs smoother, battery performance slightly better, but it needs more memory (RAM). Free RAM after update is about 400MB.

                                So, if you plan this phone for daily usage (phone, text, instant messaging, camera, and browsing), go for update. But if you are a hardcore gamer, stay in Lollipop for bigger free RAM available (>600MB).

                                        I've got my phone about 1year, I send it in for repairs for 3 times now: problem, no signal when I go into a building or when I move away from the nearest tower. After 3 times they can't fix it.
                                        Realy shit, this is my first and last Samsung, my previous phones was Blackberries and I never had this problem.
