Been using this product since about a month now. Having used it’s predecessor the Samsung Galaxy A5 Duos. This is a very good upgrade to it’s earlier version based on it’s performance. The looks are classier than ever, just something to look at for hours and admire the beauty.
This unit came with the Android Lollipop 5.0.1 which I was immediately able to update to the 6.0.1 the Marshmallow. The performance just increased with the upgrade to the software.
The finger print sensor works very well. With up to 3 fingerprints that can be set as password.
The fast charger is really fast! charges from 0 to 100 in approximately an hour.
The 2900 mAh battery helps and was very much needed considering the performance of this phone.
Gives a very good backup on video playback. Although surfing or using the phone internet can drain much sooner compared to video playback.
Camera is lovely. The rear camera 13mp gives a very clear and sharp image. The OIS definitely helps. The front camera is quite decent as well. Better than it’s previous version.
PROs:
Fast Charging
Good Fingerprint Sensor
Sharp Camera
Crisp Display
Sleek look
Does not heat up while using
Many themes for customization
OTG supported
Expandable memory
Multi Screen
Good Power Saving modes(the ultra power saving mode is life saving)
Smooth GUI transitions.
Default Internet browser, you will not need anything else after this.
Default video player gives good competition to the likes of MX Player or the VLC.
2 SIM Card Slots other than the memory card slot.
CONs:
Does NOT have "private mode’ as the older A5
File Manager isn’t too good, can improve a lot*Note to Samsung
Does NOT have "forget password option"
But Overall Best Phone to buy in this range
