Weird. I have this excellent device and I don't have any problem except the battery isn't that good. SM-A500W LTE.
Also the small update brings the November security patch.

I've been using this phone since 7 months . In the beginning I was facing overheating problem but after sometime my phone started to operate without overheating . I also encountered several times a display problem in which several blue lines appears from one side of the screen but after turning off and turning the screen on those lines disappears . It is just a minor problem . I updated my phone to MM after the update and there is no problem
The only problem I am encountering is battery drain . Phone's battery drains at a very fast rate .
At night I mostly before sleeping charges my phone to 80-90% and the other day when I woke up the battery level comes down to 70%
I am very annoyed by this battery drain problem

Hello guys from Greece! I have an A5 (A500FU) from ORANGE CARRIER and 2 months ago i updated to MM 6.0.1
After that i also confirm that i saw horizontal lines on screen and the screen lost the vibrant of colours! After restart everything ok.... i first thought that a circuit of the screen do the malfunction but it was only one time! After that another issue started! When i watching videos from new sites like cnn or simular phone starts blue flickering! The issue is bigger when the phone is on power save mode and the dimming on screen below the half! First looked up on internet and i found that SW cannot decide if it must use the GPU or SW to create the graphics and is SW bug so we must disable the SCREEN OVERLAYS from programmers hidden menu... I tried it! It doesn't resolve the problem but is "lighter"! After that because my nerves gone mad for a phone on 300+ euro range i went to official service! They re-update the phone (with the official update MM not the hotfix that we expect) they re-program the phone they even changed the whole screen with new one! Just in case! BUT the problem REMAINS!!!! Does it really there is AN UPDATE that we will receive or samsung just leave us with a BUGGED phone????

I also received white horizontal stripes through half of the screen and black color on screen changed to magenta or blue.... I thought it's HW problem...but I turned phone OFF & ON again and everything OK. I installed few apps for screen testing and everything OK. So I cannot confirm now if it is incoming HW problem or SW-related problem.

It is the best phone in $350. You can blindly go for it. The best thing is that we are going to receive Nougat update on this phone.

AnonD-430703, 31 Dec 2016Samsung Galaxy A5 2014 Or A5 2016 Which Model Samsung Says ... moreI don't care about nougat update , each time they release an update they actually release a OTA issues package , every time I update my phone I actually install some " problems "
I updated it just after I bought it about 2 months , and the update cause issues with vibration , I waited for android MM update hoping it solve vibration problem, but actually it increases it and vibration gone in more functions , screen issues, syncing issue, sound alive issues ( actually there was issue with sound alive in music player since I bought it , now it goes to video player as well ) , no more sound effect on lock screen ,if switching to arabic language then smart manager not work properly , system stop showing power consumption for each app , notifications from youtube , Flipboard breafing , smart manager stop working , and I can't download voice for any language cause the option simply is disabled , browser got some problems too , manual zoom not always work .
And these are some
I was happy with this phone at first but since the android MM update I just have a piece of " scrap " , and I really start thinking to avoid SAMSUNG entirely next time ..
I don't want a nougat update , I like android MM , I just want " and really need " an update that solve this stupid issues , I can't believe that big SAMSUNG can't solve this issues with a simple update ..
