Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) - user opinions and reviews

Has anyone here experienced the BACK and RECENT capacitive buttons after launching the ALL APPS not working?
This happened to me for quite a number of times already.
Do you think my Easy Touch app has some conflicting issues with the on board capacitive touch buttons?
I installed that app (Easy Touch) mainly for locking the phone without using the Power Button and returning to the home screen without using the physical Home Button.
I'm also experiencing lag issues when waking the phone. When the screen is turned off, we can use either the Home or Power Button to turn its display on.
I can't tell how long is the delay for the display to turn on, but the lag is very noticeable.
I also had this issue in my Galaxy Note 5.
Apart from these two issues, Galaxy A5 (2016) is a superb phone.

this phone is slow
for 1080p display should use snapdragon 800 series not 600.
snapdragon 600 is for 720p display.
you can see the benchmark on youtube. huge difference
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvU8muCXujk
video shows 1080p display with different cpu
there's reason why galaxy s4 used snapdragon 800.
Galaxy A5 2015 is much faster than this.

Did you really look at On-screen GPU performance A5 (2016) has much more fps and CPU clock speed has nothing to do with 1080p display. It's about GPU. Clearly you don't know much about smartphones.

Oh yes last but best..
7.Super fast charging (takes 100-110 mins for full charge) * it does heat up for initial 30-40 mins of charging by 15 W charger.

Guys I'm using it for last 6 days..
It may be a bit overpriced but certainly not disappointing.
1. Terrific battery (even better dan Note2) giving me 48-50 hrs with moderate single SIM use (40-50 calls, 3-4 hrs 3G net, 2-3 hrs audio streamingusing Bluetooth per day.
2. Nice screen.
3. Camera good (not great like S6) but certainly not worse. Better dan A8.
4. Lag free experience so far even with 8 -10apps open simultaneously. Yes almost 75% RAM remain occupied all d time.
* Im not into much gaming.
5. Ringing volume is OK (some reviews say it has below average volume) obviously helped by speaker position at bottom n not on back.
6. I've made in India A5 which has exynos chipset bettr dan snapdragon.
