And at the same time, the longer you wait, the better your next phone will be. If you manage to hold on to A5 for 6 more months, maybe you'll be able to afford the S20, prices will go down dramatically by that time.

This was one of the best phones I ever had, there's literally any mid range device right now with comparable specs, premium build and IP68 rating for what I paid in March 2017 for this A5 ($310 USD). I've got this phone to replace my 3 year old iPhone 6 Plus because the battery wasn't very good and since I don't like to repair my phones I was also waiting for the iPhone 7 to come out and I even kept the A5 for 5 months more after the iPhone 7 launch and finally gave it to my mom.

I really loved this phone. It's snappy, has a pixel dense 1080P OLED display and overall a great phone. This is technically not relevant but recently my screen broke (from physical damage). Because it's got an OLED panel the repair is quite pricey. The battery life on the phone was great but not so much after two years of use. I'm confident the A5 could compete with half of the 2020 A series line up.

Sounds like dust or a particle caught in the charging slot on the phone. Clean out with a plastic dental pick or shave down a toothpick as the gap is very small.

i bought this phone month after release, with original case, which glows when you get a call or sms. i bought it cuz i wanted something not so expensive but funtional, to play pokemon go. 3 frikn years, in snow and hottest summer, 1000 fell on screen on floor, nothing happened, but after 3 years it slowly shows sings of tiredness, gorrila glass and alu case plus the original cover, best spent 300€, now searching for something new but dunno. tnx peace :)

I got one from my mum this month as a secondary phone. After 3 years and 3 months the phone is still very usable, great screen, good camera (it is reasonably sharp and have vibrant colors).
Samsung still give it security patch in August 2020.
The size is just perfect, can be held by one hand, and it's IP68 rating makes me less worry when it rains/my hands are wet.

This was literally the best phone I ever had (compared to before). I didn't have to watch out all the time as it was fairly affordable at 400$ and it's easy to repair. The load of features were wonderful. Sadly, no updates anymore and the phone has slowed down quite a lot. After that, U had an iPhone 7, switched back, now I have a Realme X2 pro.
