            After update some of feature like grayscale mode and mute songs or call by Turing mobile is gone and phone is octacore but it starts hanging while doing multitasking and stuck when I play small games. ..I hope samsung will read this and make sure they send some more updates.

                              My friend I have never heard of an A5 having a 5.7 so I double checked and saw where it has a 5.2" screen. Double check the model again and tell me which model you were referring to.

                                  I don't like extra large phones meaning 5.5 and up (unless it's a bezeless 5.5 S8 style). Anyway, going for a A5 (2016) due to it's 5.7 is not worthy in my book. I would prefer going for a Note 4. Much more features minus the radio plus OIS and all stabilisation you could ever want.

                                      I hope we also get the battery optimization, and device stability update the Note 4 just received .To put it out there ; I was actually about to start saving for a new Samsung phone , during the investigations I had settled down on the galaxy A5 (2016).
                                      Why ? because it had all I wanted in a smartphone ; fm radio, a fairly large screen (5.7') , a huge capacity battery (3300 Mah) a compact-slim profile (7.9mm or so) and above all a 2015 favourite chips the, Exynos 7240......BUT ! I got really disappointed with the lack of video stabilization , no gyroscope sensor meant no software enabled video stabilization.
                                      Yes the video footage I've investigated are pretty bad,really shaky like the new A series 2017. I really like my camera quality and video output to be best as I like videoing and taking pictures.So the only choice as usual is to jump on Samsung "buy a flagship to get premium features" train and get myself an s7, but just because of it's camera nothing else.
