Galaxy A-series smartphones are the next best to its flagship Galaxy S lineup. This series is meant for those who want a premium Samsung phone without the bloated price tag. Of course, these devices come devoid of some of the bells and whistles of the uber-premium S-series but you’ll find most of the essential flagship-class features. Our review of the Samsung Galaxy A8 last August is testament to a formula that is working for Samsung.
Towards the tail end of last year, Samsung refreshed this series with a new Galaxy A7, Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A3; all ready to make their 2016 debut. After our initial impressions of the A5 and A7(which are now available in India), it’s time to take a closer look at the new 2016 Galaxy A5 and see how good it really is.
