    Hey. I got this device as in gift few months back! Now this device has several issues.. its model number is A5F10D, i've visited samsung centers and none of them helped with anything as there is no local warranty.. its running on MM and issues are not detecting wifi, bluetooth or mobile data.. battery drains too fast even when the device is turned off.. can someone suggest any solution? If i downgrade the device with lollipop 5.1.1, it would be helpful??? Please answer anyone??

      Sreedivya, 26 Dec 2016In a5 , lollipop version or marshmallow version is good!?? Any issues after marshmallow update??My A5 got Marshmellow and it is better than Lollipop (in J Max). In first view you will not get major difference. But in detail there are many difference. I will advice you must go for A5 with Marshmellow or if you can wait for few more days than just go for A5 (2017).

              Braam, 23 Dec 2016Have phone 3 months. Yesterday 2nd time it will not register my fingerprint nor my back-up pin... moreHave you rooted your device? If yes, than you have to flash the phone. If not, than try to do factory reset. I suspect you have loaded or tried many apps, which has corrupted the OS file. So, you are facing such problem.

                ILoveCats, 23 Dec 2016Should i buy Samsung Galaxy J5 or A5?? Which one is better? Both are different devices in different price range. You should take a demo of the two and find out which suits best for you.and than buy the one.

                  AnonD-624614, 25 Dec 2016hello, there's a deal right now on the huawei nova and galaxy a5 2016, both for the same money... moreAs a proud Samsung device user I will advice you to go for the A5, not because you will get reliable hardware from Samsung with better service network. But also Samsung offers better software such as S health, S note, S music, S planner etc.

                  As for Huwaei or Honor, I have not see them or used them. But if you have get demo or earlier used one than you can go for it.

                  I think it is better to stick to a brand than to hoping each year for another brand.

                      hello, there's a deal right now on the huawei nova and galaxy a5 2016, both for the same money. I'd like to upgrade, but which one should I chose? My most important criteria are still camera and solidness (if that's a word).
                      Thank you for your help

                                      I have this phone for a month now. It is SM-A510 F model. So far everything works great. Phone came with android 6.0.1 out of box, and works smooth with no lagging. In my opinion best thing on this phone is display. Camera is also very good (not that much in low light). Fast charging is great thing (it¨s my firs phone with this feature).
                                      In general, I¨m very satisfied with A5 2016.

                                        Anonymous, 21 Dec 2016Chinese brands such as huawei and xiaomi have ugly screens resistive touch they look like toys... moreYes i agree with your opinion, i already guess that Chinese brand (except LNVO, OPO you know what i mean, right?) Can't last forever like maybe just 6 months, maybe because the Chinese brand not set chasing Quality of the phone components, so the phones not last forever (the factors also how you use it).
