      I need a help? I have been using it for 2 years and I'm very satisfied. What to buy more recently in a similar price range. Maybe Honor 8x,or again Samsung ?

        @Jaro

        Yes, in very cold conditions phone is prone to shutting down and loosing juice.

        That's normal and common in many smartphones with lithium ion batteries.

        Nothing to worry, it should be fine over 2C, keep it warm and don't switch it right back on if it discharge, warm it first and than try

          Yesterday I was in the mountains, there Was temperature around -7C (17F) , after 4.5h houers of walking the baterry drop from 67% to 0% in one moment. This is the 3rd time when this phone is quickly dying in cold weather. The phone was in my pocket in trousers for all the time with GPS and Lte turn on. In J5 2015 i've never had this situations in winter. Do you have the same expirence ?

            this phone is rubbish,after update my battery drained so fast. In car it doesn't charging. MY borther has the same model and it was constant 100% battery,but my phone drained so fast during charging in the car! ! Service said that it gets sparks on motherboard and etc. they said more than 10.000 a5 phones 2017 has problems with battery. IT something with hardware or software. I will never buy samsung phone again.

                          I have had my Samsungs A5 for 2 years. Today when it was fully charged it would not perform at all. I turned it off to see if that would correct the problem. It will not turn back on now. Any suggestions. So frustrated. No way to contact my home

                            Well, I am using it for 2 years now. I can say, this phone survived fresh water, rain and even salt water (I have been recording underwater videos many times). Pretty fast, 3 GB RAM is very good for multitasking and high performance. The only and I mean ONLY bad thing is the Main Camera. It;s good on daily light but It is REALLY bad at night and there is no OIS and no 2k or SloMo video. The front camera is good but there is no focus, it's a fixed focus camera on about 50cm.
