Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) - user opinions and reviews

I've got to admit I was thoroughly impressed with how Samsung have implemented the premium gorilla glass and aluminium design with expandable storage options. Compared to the previous generation A5, this is a huge step up. Great design with great performance, perfect for those wanting a premium offering without paying that premium price tag. Excellent stuff!

This is an amazing phone.. with awesome battery backup and scree resolution. Everything is fine except one I didn't find one-hand operation option... which is very much essential and was also available in A5 previous version. Don't know why Samsung did this

Lumina, 25 May 2016And so I end up buying this phone. But the signal strength is weak in Malaysia? How do I fix i... moreSignal issue fixed! Now I'm getting good signals back! I'm using a redmi note 2 before and now I've switched to this phone I don't regret. I'm using the redmi note 1 and s3 before switching to redmi note 2.
Reviews for A5 2016 :
Fingerprint works very fast and accurate.
Device is very smooth! A lot smoother than redmi note 1 and note 2.
Battery life is very good! Redmi note 2 has 3000mah and only lasts 4hours Screen on time while a5 2016 has 2900mah and 4hours screen on time still has 60% battery using LTE.
Device is very beautiful and good.
Only con is speaker volume is not very high (still decent).
I would say it's totally worth it!

And so I end up buying this phone. But the signal strength is weak in Malaysia? How do I fix it? Others are really good. I have the Exynos version and it's really smooth and does not heat up when charging.

Anonymous, 22 May 2016Would you guys consider the performance of this phone "smooth'? or is it very laggy as it has ... moreIn my experience with both versions, I have to say that the snapdragon version is slower than the exynos version. This goes for heavy apps,games,etc. I did test the 2 in GTA San Andreas and the Adreno 405 is laggier and slower than the MaliT720MP2 in the Exynos version.(This is proven by countless youtubers that has done this test)[Probably because of a slower processor] Don't be discouraged this is still a very nice phone. I'm just giving you the differences of the 2 versions.
I would still buy the Exynos version if I were you, but overall the snapdragon version isn't bad at all. It's actually very smooth in less intensive apps like Asphalt 8 on high settings
[Snapdragon version is at 1.2ghz and 1.5ghz while Exynos is at 1.6ghz]
(This is all based on my experience, I apologize in advance if anything I have said may contain flaw, but I assure you I have researched well and have tested both versions personally.)
