I can return this phone and have 100$ from it. Now the cost of the A5 new is 200$. Yes the phone loose the water protection and after 6 months or 1 year it is the same as a phone without IP68 as this one have when it is new. Never dropped in water. Always in special cases in summer and winter. Samsung in my opinion is working and developing great the A series. We are having 4K videos and other electronic devices in use. The higher A series number are really a great choice for the money. Yes they are not glass but this means not heavy. In special cases they last longer. In August I will definitively switch to A70. I bet this new phone will be competitive for at least 3 or 4 years depending on use surely. Android 9 Pie, One UI ect.....128 GB internal memory, 6 GB ram, 4500 mah battery and many other features......I have decided.

Chris22, 27 Jun 2019Not ! officially no update to Android 9.0 announcedI have doubts that we maybe will definitely not have Pie. For sure I'm not going to try Pie myself. I'm thinking maybe to change to A70 in the next month. For as long as have seen videos on youtube, seem to be a good choice in the midrange category.

16px selfie camera, are you sure that is correct? It seems other sources say 5px, which seems more realistic.

New Samsung phones are impressive! If we don't get Pie I think as soon as it get to Argentina I will replace it with Samsung A40 great phone size very similar to a5 and a huge screen! better processor and camera, more Ram, bigger storage .. It will be hard I love our phone but it's hard to process we won't have any other software updates, it's hard even to find cases and I look for them in many countries and it's the same I think that is because is a phone that is discontinued now..

I have been using this mobile since around two years. In the time it was released it was a good phone. Over the past two years, of course mobile phones got more advanced with more features. I can tell that new phones have more powerful processors and more advanced cameras and batteries. However, in terms of rigidity and powerful outer interface, a metallic frame and glass back, a corning gorilla glass 4 touch screen are much better than a plastic frame and back and a corning gorilla glass 3. Also, the lack of super Amoled screens in some newer A series phones especially in 2019 to the replacement to LCD or TFT screens is a bad downgrade. Another missing feature is the USB type C and getting back to micro USB especially in 2018. A last note is that kicking off the waterproof resistance is a very bad downgrade. As a result, newer A series phones should combine the advanced features of newer phones but keep the rigidity of older A series phones to keep the series on its powerful track.

Hi guys, I'm looking for advice.
I used a S9 fast charger once & noticed how much quicker the device charges. If I get an oem samsung charger & use it will it be detrimental in the long run or must I stick to the capacity charger provided with the phone? Thanks
(Does it matter if its samsung oem or a good brand fast charger?)
