Is this phone a good buy now (Sept 2017)?
For me the selling points are the size (I have small hands) and IP68
AnonD-507427, 05 Sep 2017Simple, go and sell your A5 17 and your problem will be solvedYes i will sell it n will buy S8 that samsung trick for business i recently purchased this i will use it till December Then will sell it never even buy mid range phone of samsung their flagship phone are better at least they got update 5 months time difference....
Stuart Reeves, 04 Sep 2017I stand with your point as well. A5 2017 Marshmallow is like Samsung Experience 8.1 in terms o... moreI've got august security patch 17 days ago ;)
I got the 7.0 update in Croatia 01.09. First impressions are positive, batery life is better, ux is nicer and has nice looking animation, aod got the update too and now look's like s8. Front camera is same, no changes. Same blurry selfies but the rear camera got improoved, like it has some stabilisation or something. I don,t know is it just me, but I feel like the phone is a bit more laggy in web browser and other apps than on marshmallow... Bluetooth reception is also better and wifi reception got better too.. Don't forget to update your apps and clear the chache partition afternougat update to get everything work fine.
According to gfxbench this phone has a better gpu performance compared to c5 pro, any idea why?
cuz on paper Adreno 506 is better than Mali-T830MP3
AnonD-697552, 05 Sep 2017please tell which to buy. j7 pro or a5 2017?. j7 is better cuz of android n and slightly bigge... moreObviously go for a5 2017 because performance and battery life and processor is better than j series and camera and screen quality also better than J series
[deleted post]What's the CSC of your phone? Sammobile shows Bahrain doesn't have any specific CSC codes for A5 2017. Only ones in the region are KSA and UAE (LYS, XSG).
please tell which to buy. j7 pro or a5 2017?. j7 is better cuz of android n and slightly bigger display. while a5 is better performance wise but not much ?
thanks.

AnonD-685062, 04 Sep 2017I got nougat update before 4 or 5 bd i am loving nougat battery life is better than marshmallow What's your screen on time on nougat? Because I usually get 5-7 hrs of screen on time on marshmallow. Are you experiencing overnight battery drain? Just curious here. Still no nougat for me. Hahaha
AnonD-687663, 04 Sep 2017Before 3 months i was beside A5 2017 and the Sony Xperia XA1 to be my daily driver . But final... moreA5 will also get Oreo, although that'll take ages..

[deleted post]I believe it would be worth the wait. Just a little patience though. Haha. And I've heard that Oreo is blazingly fast. I saw a speed test of Pixel C nougat vs oreo. Boot up, app launch, and ram management are better on oreo. We really need to wait though! Hahaha. Oreo will be ours when Android P is released! XD
