MrGrumpy, 15 Feb 2017Cheers Eric, overall how do you think the A3 2017 compares ... moreIf you were used to type/swipe with one hand in Whatsapp and other messengers in S5 Mini, then A3 is definitely a no go. It feels big, you can't cover all letters and it slips out of hand. If you don't care about one hand usage you better pick a bigger normal phone, either A5 or P9 lite or whatever, there are a lot cheap and good around 5" - basically ALL damn others...
A3 performances are better, obviously, still the extra size wont justify it. If S5 Mini was 8/10 at handling (considering some 4-4.3" was 10/10), then I would give A3 2017 a solid 4/10 at handling with one hand.

Moving from my old HTC One-S with Android 6 (CM 13) I'm very happy with the small size and battery life.
If Samsung would show some concern for their customers I would be even happier. Samsung choose to not let you use your SD-card for permanent storage so now I'm stuck with 16 GB and a basically useless SD-card. The option to use the SD-card as permanent storage has been around since Android 5 ...

But seriously I am looking for a good one handed phone.. this phone caught my eye.. how good it is to use with one hand.. I have a Redmi Note 3 after holding it for long time, I feel very uncomfortable as it quite heavy and have to use both the hands for operation..

I think 'A' series is one of best in Samsung... they have 3 different display sizes... it gives a chance to choose better phone size to our hand... but it not to say reduce the performance of handset. A3 some step down with A5 and A7.. its to bad for small phone lovers...

Grace UX is a colorless interface that looks authistic. My a3 is already in service and I have to wait weeks to fix it...

Not sure whether it's worth upgrading my S5 Mini for this. I'm thinking not.

A3 (2017)
+ better battery life
+ newer press fingerprint sensor

Grace ui is also cleaner and simpler... only thing is that private mode is gone... and there is secure folder which is not that simpler as private mode...

Had s6 edge for 1.5 years...battery backup is certainly better than s6 edge...
And fingerprint scanner is on par with s6 edge... even better in the sense i dont have to click the home button first and then put finger...
In A3 just rest your finger on home button and it unlocks quickly...thats amazing..
Also AOD feature is great with lots of customization...

Pars, 13 Feb 2017Is it fast charge ?It seems not, it uses standard charge. a5 2017 with a capacity of 3000 mAh takes 1 hour 20 minutes to complete, then a3 2017 a little longer than that when the capacity is only 2350 mAh.
