AnonD-674391, 04 Sep 2017Hey Babe XD Ive never had this smartphone but my best friend does have it! No reason for me t... moreBecause you don't know or your friend that samsung purposely downgraded youtube quality to 720p 60fps videos only . I have this phone since april 2016. It ages very quick thanks to samsung looks and sealed low quality batteries.( that explodes as well) I LOVED this phone until 6.0 came. Because samsung browser lags like hell and samsung downgraded performance even more. Clash royale lags in 720p (downscaled in game tuner) more than in 1080p when game tuner is off.It's hilarious but true! Sorry for saying that is ancient.I am a bit sad today. My mistake sweetie :) Also an advice! If you have 7.0 on it disable fast charging! It degrades the battery even more. And the look on this phone makes me wonder why I don't have a girlfriend :))). Because I cracked this phone's back from 25cm drop?.

Ive never had this smartphone but my best friend does have it! No reason for me to lie here! And she gave it to me quite many times and I am a fond of it. I said the phone is Almost as good as a flagship. Its battery never ends and the display is gorgeous. The camera is excellent . We have taken many pictures and they were perfect. There was no lag when we have watched videos on youtube and chatting on Instagram , Skype and Facebook.
And thanks for liking my name :D
Where do you come from ? And a phone came out in 2016 isn't an ancient one. 2016 was only last year, if you don't know that. XD

But I paid 200 euros on it. And how can you compare this phone with a flagship???? Of course camera is the best on this phone. I love. Display is better than note 4. Battery is king. But gpu is horrible. That is the only thing that sucks. And I have to throw this phone because battery is already degraded.barely get 4 hours on browsing. Imagine next year. Hope it will survive. But If I want facebook and instagram then I could stick to my 2012 phone. By the way
Cool name! Like it!

2017 is way way better, but still no match to SD 810. Released in 2015.
I am not a gamer. But it barely pushes 30 fps on lowest settings in newest titles. Next year I have to throw this phone away. So much lag...

I tend not to go for newly-released phones because I fear that they're gonna have a lot of problems and stuff. I could've spent a couple more bucks to get the 2017 version, but I generally don't want to spend a lot of money on stuff I am sure I'm going to drop and break, 'cause that's precisely what I usually do :D. Plus, I find the A5 2016 to be a little more attractive than its 2017 counterpart (that one has really nice rounded corners though ;-;), just because of its glass screen and back cover. ;P

But still I think the previous A generation was better.

AnonD-674391, 02 Sep 2017Why probably not? The device came out only a year ago! One year! Its not an old smartphone. So... moreYeah, I agree 100% with you, but I never said it was an old phone. 2016 seems pretty new to me. Now, it may very well get an upgrade to Oreo and I'll be very glad if it does, but I'm just pointing out that it may slow down the phone. Nougat drains my battery a lot faster than Marshmallow, while also making it somewhat laggy. I'm not too sure if my A5 can handle a new update, but maybe everyone else's can :))

AnonD-682941, 02 Sep 2017 Guys will samsung a5 2p16 get Android 8.0? reply me.Probably not. It has already received two major Android updates, Marshmallow and Nougat. Even if it did get the option to update to Oreo, it would leave the phone with little to no memory and RAM, making it very laggy. But honestly, who knows? Maybe they'll update it, maybe not.
