The Samsung Galaxy E5 is a cheaper version of the Galaxy A5, there are some specs changes that helped reduce the cost. But this handset still does not compete with the Lenovo A6000 price wise. The Galaxy E5 is priced at under Rs. 16, 500. Though the E5 has an advantage when it comes to build quality and Super AMOLED screen, there is still a huge price difference.

Even Samsung last year’s flagship Galaxy S4 is available for 19, 000 INR. With time the price is expected to slide further
