          It seems new M and A series are better than old J, C and A series but still just garbage and can't compete with Chinese rivals according to GSMArena reviews... Only S and Note series are considerable in Samsung

                I got this phone on tuesday and so far i have been very happy with it after some adjustments in settings, apps and whatnot.

                But i have trouble with buttons (volume, pause, skip and so on) on my Sennheiser CX5 airbuds, or more precisely they work spotty. Sometimes they do, sometimes they dont. They can work one momment and then next moment they don't. My previous phone was Moto G4 with Nougat and i had no issues there. Could anyone else who has this phone test their earbud controls and whether they work? Day to day i use phonograph but it is the same issue in google play.

                      A3 has 93 endurance!!

                        Anonymous, 01 May 2019Is it Exynos 7885 or 7904 inside? Your specs say 7885, but ... moreI've read a few other reviews that also mention it possessing the exynos 7885, allegedly the processor is region specific, either the 7904 or the 7885 which sounds daft if true

                          The rating of 3 out of 5 seems quite daft, not sure how they arrived at that. Ratings should be like for like in the sector, but 3 implies it's a disaster. It's compact and has an AMOLED panel, it's an excellent choice for those who want a great small display. What's the point to say you could buy a Redmi Note 7, when people would buy this for the compact size and great display? It's aimed at those who regard the display as important, such as myself. Why would the battery life be good in such a small handset? Why should it have 4k, it's a budget phone?

                            A more expensive alternative could be the Mi 9 SE. I currently have it, and it's beautiful!

                              Can anyone tell me definitely whether or not this phone and the other in this line(A50, A70) will work for 4G LTE on MetroPCS in America? There are a couple of stores now selling these phones and they say they are 4G LTE compatable, but I just want to make sure before I buy the A70.

                                I think the rear camera is weak. A6+ or A7 has better cameras.

                                  Is it Exynos 7885 or 7904 inside? Your specs say 7885, but the cpu frequencies seem to indicate it's 7904. Also, 7885 is a last year's chip, powering the last year A-series phones.

                                    First of the new A-series having USB 3.1 type-C.

                                      at last, a compact sized midranger :)
                                      seeing all the big-ass models I was pretty sure that compactness will be a selling point for the S series, but I was wrong, fortunatelly
                                      additionally, it's pretty cheap - it doesn't have the best camera and misses some of the more premium features, but if you want that (in a compact size), you can still get the S10e

                                        Mikiya, 01 May 2019Unfortunately Google Store and Galaxy Store mark this app a... moreOh crap. Did not know that. Bold move by Samsung.
