        Android 7 Nougat now available in Romania. After update, the phone is more responsive, looks better with new UI, the fingerprint is more eficient, 100% succes, in marshmallow the fingerprint had some bugs.

                      I purchased a second hand set at 10k I am very happy with the set specially considering I wanted to try samsung pay.However I find the display to be yellowish as compared to other handset like oppo etc.
                      same issues was with S7 edge.

                                    I have my A5 16 about a year now and it still runs smooth . Once in a mounth i take out my sd card and sim and just leave it there for an hour or so. And i got a 360 °silicone full body shockproof slim soft rubber case that prevents scratches or so. And i think i am going to keep it for the next 2-3 years...before i gey another phone
