nima, 04 Aug 2016why there is no review for this amazing phone??????????why?????????????The best an most realistic reviews you find by reading the comments in this forum. They are mostly based on daily users experiences, both up's and downs. I bought mine abot 2 months ago as temporary replacement for a SONY X3 Compact (was at the end changed on warranty), and have let my A3 go to my children as a 'play' phone' mainly used on the house wi-fi. Games , u-tube whatever seems to work, so far no complaints. In some ways I liked it even better than my Z3, however I'll let that one live on until it dies next time. Hopefully a bit left in the A3. It is an ok phone for daily use, works without problems. My reason for buying it was simple: the Nano SIM made it easy to switch between other phones in the family if any of those breaks down!

        Glad to know there are more people susuffering from the keyboard issue.

        I've done a lot of research and found out it's not a faulty multitouch (it's not hardware), but a keyboard lag... I've read there are hundreds of users having the same problem with different phone brands with one thing in common: Lollipop 5.1.1...

        So, to (partially) solve the keyboard lag, clean caché of the app you're using (whatsapp, Telegram, ICQ, etc) or even better, disable swipe options and predictions... That will help the phone a lot regarding RAM use.

        Let's hope all versions of this phone get marshmallow and a proper solution for the lag.

        Having said that, phone is great. I come from a GS3 Neo and my A3 is worth the money.

                                      (Hi GSM Arena-please post only this rectifyed post/thnx)
                                      -This Samsung Galaxy A310 2016F smartphone it s just great. My last smartph that i wouldn t change, used, liked and enjoyed for about 3 years a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini I9195/4G/1.7Dual core/1.5GB Ram/8GB/JellyBean>KitKat was doing it s job peoperly at his time, but unfortunately in time, with KitKat and other most used applications updates, it begined to become laggy, sticky sometimes without any reasons despite of keeping it mentained at the best conditions and status/configuration and settings(used almost all usual applications that we use everyday/except games and recreational appl-that i rarely played on it) ~in last year of it s usage also needed to uncheck the "limit processor power" from the powersaving mode to make it work faster and properly. The battery worked at the best time between about almost a day long to 1day and half. I could say that i am a realistic objective Samsungfan.
                                      -Now about the new Galaxy A3 that i own from about 2-3weeks with Lollipop OS, from all my evaluations and appreciations, after i configured the way i like and use, except the background white system-that should be on black-like on JellyBean/KitKat-wich would be a good-great battery saver, and battery removal(not really a minus-as can be changed in time-at a GSM service), i say that the Android Marshmallow system it s clearly revolutionary comparing with last 2 OS used, and a real performance for battery, and other usage stuff. Now with same use the battery easyly keeps working for 2 days. As compare, the phone it s just great, many advantages in usability,... and the missing of gyro sensor in Galaxy A310f 2016 doesn t feel at all for me.

                                        i want this phone so bad but it is a little bit pricey because of metal. i wish that the back cover is shiny plastic and i like the glass in the front like iphone and metal side. plus i want the specs of j7 2015 not like this cause the specs is outdated and the battery is 2600 and removable battery.
