          Navraj, 29 Jun 2016Hii frnds.. m interested in a5 (exynos model available in india).. but my frnd told me that it... moreIt does not heat that much. If u use fast charging then all phones will heat a little more. If heating is very extensive then I suggest not to use fast charging option......

            I had this phone for 2 weeks now, i can say that is really good.
            Pros:
            Build quality excelent like s6 or s7 level.
            Display excelent , has really good min and max brightness levels.
            Battery, the best i ever seen, im getting 8hs screen on time every day with regular use.
            Fast charging, half charge in 30min or full charge in 1 hr and 20min.
            Not overheat issue (is winter here)
            Really good camera but no 4k or slow motion.
            Cons:
            Not good for heavy games, normal games go just fine.
            Not perfect multitasking but im not a heavy user so dont care for it.
            No notification LED
            No gyroscope so not VR on a cardboard or 360 videos.
            Can share media with smart tv but CANT do screen and apps mirroring.

            If u dont care so much for the Cons u should get it, its a really good phone.
            My previous phone was the Moto x 2014 for ur reference.

                  I've noticed that (micro) space between screen and metal frame is not really equal on both upper sides (I'm talking about a 10th piece of mm). It's can't be seen on first look but when I look the phone on specific angle and light I can see a metal reflection close to corner in the spot between screen glass and metal frame. Just like screen isn't absolutely perfect positioned (centered) into a frame, nothing really visible and I've noticed that only after a two weeks of using the phone, but now when I aware of it, it's pretty annoying. Does anyone else had a similar observation?

                                Hii frnds.. m interested in a5 (exynos model available in india).. but my frnd told me that it overheats while charging.. even he showed me that mobile's soft plastic back cover got blackened (like little burn) due to heat near charging port... otherwise phone is good, but if the heating during charging is that much high ??? i heard that heat also reduces battery life... Plz users share ur views abt this ??? thanks.
