Anonymous, 07 Feb 2018This phone is a piece of crap. Always breaking. I had this ... moreYou had a fake replacement then. Screen bleeding is only for actual LCDs. It's supposed to be an AMOLED.

      Wars Waldoh, 26 Feb 2018DO NOT BUY IT EVEN IF YOU CAN GET IT FOR FREE!!!! The ac... moreI've had this phone for ages...and i never thought it was that sensitive. i love it. I'd rather it be like this than me having to press on the same spot for hours until the phone reacts like others. The wi-fi problem is not because of the phone, but could be because of the viruses you have put on it because it doesn't happen to all. My one and only concern about this perfect phone is that it randomly shuts off when i lock it. But that again is because I've over virused it. The phone is great i don't get why there's so many people hating on it.

        Wars Waldoh, 26 Feb 2018Two questions. Do you work for Samsung? If not, am I correc... moreI have a Samsung Galaxy A5 2015 version, and i don't want to change it because i seriously love it so much. I mostly use it with one hand it's pretty easy to. The phone looks great. I've dropped it sooooooo many times. Literally. From the top of the stairs, on to the ground outside...Just everywhere. It barely has one scratch in a corner. Not even a scratch. More like a dot. About the phone case, true you do need one. But you could work without it. Buy a glass screen protector and you're solved. A phone case is optional. Even without it, the phone is pretty tough. I've had it for nearly 4 years now. And the battery lifespan is amazing. Even if it's on 10%, I could still listen to my kpop music for another 3 hours or so. The camera quality could indeed be improved, but except that it's perfect. I use it mst of the time, and i have so many apps on it currently. From games to korean learning apps, yet it still works super fast.

                AnonD-405347, 25 Nov 2017Best phone in the world. Rating to highest mark. Good Batte... moreTwo questions. Do you work for Samsung? If not, am I correct to assume that this is the only smart phone you have ever purchased? Most people I've talked to who own an A5 have quickly regretted getting it. As I said, even a Samsung Rep said he hated it.

                The responses from those who "liked" it say you NEED to purchase a case for it because of all the accidental touching and how a simple bump can crack the screen. And NEVER try and operate it with one hand because, unless you are extremely dextrous with long fingers and cradle it, there is no way to not accidentally touch the edges and soft keys.

                You don't buy nor consider a vehicle that is extremely difficult to drive. Neither should you have to deal with a phone that is extremely difficult to use.

                The Bezel us design should have never been introduced not launched. It DEMANDS one purchase a case in order to try and cure it. Meaning it is a flaw in the design.

                Here's an idea. Why not design a phone people will actually LIKE to use? Think about the consumer for a change. If phone designers would stand the chance of getting slapped hard upset the head for horrible ideas, we wouldn't need sites to voice negative comments.

                  DO NOT BUY IT EVEN IF YOU CAN GET IT FOR FREE!!!!

                  The accidental touching is insanely constant. Unless I am cradling it, which is extremely difficult when lying on the couch or reclining, I am CONSTANTLY accidentally touching the "Back" or "Recent Apps" soft keys or the sides. The fixer apps such as "NO More Accidental Touching" are a poor fix at best and the apps that can shut off your soft keys DO NOT SHUT THEM OFF. They can make the DO NOTHING meaning that if you are brushed up against it YOU CAN DO NOTHING! None of your other screen touches work until you are not touching the soft keys you "thot" you disabled.

                  The phone is over sensitive. Keypad sux. Fragile no matter what the people at the phone kiosks tell you. The phone randomly decides to shut you off WiFi without letting you know causing you to quickly burn thru your mobile data minutes. Even a Rep from Samsung told me he HATED this phone!

                  I almost gave up on Samsung entirely over this badly designed, "seemed like a great idea after a few tokes", piece of technological crap. If this were Samsung maiden phone, they'd have gone out of business.

                  Note: I used the A5 to write this and hate it even more. You have NO idea how difficult this was.

                  And to those who blindly defend Samsung's A5 saying "Well you just got to learn how to work with it...." load of crap, I say "A phone should be designed to work comfortably for the person and NOT the person needs to train him/her-self to back able to TRY and work less uncomfortably with a crap design phone."

                  Let all these people have the A5, but for the rest of us who desire something better,.... Anything BUT!...
