                  Hello, is there a way to format microsd card as internal storage. Because I put samsung evo plus 64gb but there is only sd card option. I cant see any format as internal storage or something like that. I think its disabled on this phone? Can I enable it?

I have been using this phone for 1 month and it is a bit laggy at certain times. there are cheaper alternatives with better performance out there. but if you prefer style over substance this phone is a really good looking one. good battery life (24 hr standby with 4-5 hr screen on time) and have a nice display.

                            Hi guys and gsmareana I am a Samsung Galaxy A 5 2016 user. This phone is splendid it is just a brilliant phone in every way possible well done to u Samsung for this model my only concerns on this phone is the phone heats up a bit when playing games for about 10 min or so on continuous use idk if that is normal, camera is super awesome just at night the rear struggles a bit but with the flash on at night the pics come out a bit better lastly is i am from South Africa and I got the update for marshmallow idk if I should update it as there is many comments out there saying the phone performs so much more better, camera, battery, performance etc while others are saying the phone becomes laggy even when playing mid range games like clash Royale and clash of clans etc so I would like to know from you guys whether I should update or not thanks.
