I have recently bought A5 and i was really sati... moreMy phone's battery is very good...go to the recovery (power off> press and hold power+valumeup+home buttons for 5 second)and perform wipe factory data and wipe cache partition.if not fix> download a new rom from sammobile and flash by odin...(some apps are harmful for your phone and battery.it is better that install apps from google play)

            I'm not sure if you really faced these problems (if so then I'm sorry) or that you're Apple/LG/HTC troll.

If you still want go for Galaxy A9 at least, the specs are better. Choosing b/t A5 (16) and A8 is a very tough choice. BAse yourself on screen size mainly I will suggest... but A5 (16) has NFC and samsung pay

                      Hi guys !!! I have recently bought A5 and i was really satisfied with battery. Then happened two things. First i was trying to install some apk file and after that phone went crazy. Thousands pop up commercials, warnings that my phone was affected with virus and similar stuff. Then i did factory reset and now is everything normal but the battery life is much worse then before that. For example, i used to go to bed with 100% of battery and next morning was 98-99 % !!! The same situation now but battery drops at 90 % !!! In every day usage is the battery life also noticeably shorter. What can that be??? I have the same apps as before, nothing has changed. Another thing is that i have to use some other charger yet because i left the original one (fast charger) at home. Is it possible that a non-original charger affects the battery life in that way. Did anyone from you have such experiences with this phone????

                          Harry, 04 May 2016 I m confused pls suggest is A5 2016 gd optionI have this mobile ..
                          According to its price it's amazing and i see it don't differ from S6 unless you are a gamer .
                          It's fingerprint sensor is amazing and fast. The desine is very good and screen and back are covered with glass that you can experience that the movile is always new.
                          The battery and the fast charger are very very good .. amazing..
                          The temp of it is not felt any more even when playing games.
                          The process is very good.
                          I do not see any disadvantages of it exept that the speakers are put in not appropriate position that when you put it in your right hand the speakers are closed.

                            This phone is amazing. I have it a week now. First of all am seeing people saying that the fingerprint and I don't understand it as to me it couldn't have been faster. The design is beautiful. But I have an objection. The companies should stop loading the phones with pre installed apps. The ram could have been better but I haven't encountered any lags yet ( I'm not a gamer btw ). The camera is beautiful and I am very picky when it comes to this. For its price it's a very very good mobile.

                                      In favor: Possibility of rooting, screen, very fast response (rooted and without bloatware), 2GB RAM, FM Radio, LTE, fast charging, 1 and 1/2 day of normal use without recharge, very good price/specs relationship, flat design.

                                      Cons: Difficult to extract (and change) battery, low 3D rendering performance, some heating, low volume of sound (if you don't tweak it), SIM and microSD introduction system.

                                      Conclusion: AWESOME cellphone IF you know what you're buying and you take control of the system by rooting it and stopping the bloatware.

                                        Anonymous, 03 May 2016You should probably go for the A5The both cost 400€ in my country and the a5 comes with the exynos chipset. I think that alpha is all in all a better phone, it has better chipset, better camera, heart rate sensor(even thought i don't really need one) and you could see that in the review, it says that a5 a lower segment than alpha so i don't really know
