The Samsung Galaxy A5 is Samsung’s latest stylish mid-range phone and a follow-up to last year’s Samsung Galaxy Alpha. It’s around half the price of the upcoming Galaxy S6, but its metal-framed design makes it look and feel like a pricier phone.
It still offers speedy 4G connectivity for fast internet usage, decent cameras and a 5-inch HD( 720 x 1280) display, but it has a mid-range processor. That means it faces tough competition from phones such as the Moto G( 4G), Huawei Ascend G7, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact and even the LG G3. It’s a good option if you want a phone that looks and feels high end, though the fact it ships with Android 4.4 KitKat and not 5.0 Lollipop is a little disappointing.
