You need to send back to the customer service, samsung centre for repairing and it will take only a day. Mine was still under warranty. They changed the LCD screen. Still using it since 2017 till now (changed the LCD screen twice), love the loud speaker, the sound, unbelievable! I used to have note 2 but the loudspeaker cannot beat this Samsung J5 pro, i wonder. Now, came out Samsung Ultra S21, planning to buy but wish if i can buy another new Samsung J5 Pro, worth the money! ;-)

Im am useing this phone 2 and half years.The phone is so good,its so smooth, opening things pretty fast and stuff like that.I have the 16gb with 2gb version.Im gamer so 16gb of storage its not too good for me and i want more ram.This is very good phone for people who are not gamers so much and for people who are playing games only when they are bored.You will have small problems with the finger print after 2 and half years,the battery is doing her job, and the screen on the phone is so beautiful,the edges and stuff like that.The camera is good, 13MP on the back and 13MP selfie camera shis.The back of the phone is so beautiful.I dont know what to say more.With few words...
THIS PHONE IS BEAST

Had one, used it for about 3 years and it is still functional. Great quality build, and some standard hw for mid-range phone during that time. I was very satisfied with performance, it did the job without any problems. Before that I have change about 4 phones in 1-2 years, but this one served me well and it is one of my favourit phones.

Flaws of this phone:
1. Will randomly go into black screen which you can't press anything but Volume Down button and Unlock button to force restart the phone.
2. Will self restart randomly, and sometimes reset your phone.

Anonymous, 23 Aug 2020Do you know when will android 10 be available to J5 2017?It won't update to android 10 according to Samsung Members. Android 9.0 was the last major update. (Keep in mind that this midrange phone received 2 major OS updates, which was weird in the first place)

Today, June's 2020 security update was ready to be installed to my smartphone (region: Greece). So maybe this model will be taking 2 security updates for this year (the second one must be December 2020).

Had the phone (SM-J530F/DS model) for about 2 1/2 years now and it has been a good, dependable dual sim phone.
Good value, nice screen and decent battery life. Camera pretty good too.
Decided to replace it recently as the charging port connector is now worn out and the last security update was in Dec 2019, which is a bit too long ago for my liking.

Heres my overall opinion on this phone after using it for almost 2 years.
The phone is working great even after 2 years, the battery still hasn't downgraded, it's not as laggy as i was expecting after constantly using it, the screen has no burn-ins, but the ram is quite a deal after we got 2 major android updates, it just cannot hold more than 2 or 3 apps opened. Oh and the internal memory, 16 GB is just not enough nowadays if you casually use your device to get music, photograph stuff and such.
The phone itself has had updates, both security and major android updates for 2 years and it is no longer being updated, thats why you see in the comments below people not being happy it doesn't receive updates anymore, i'm just questioning how they don't understand that almost every android phone gets 1 or 2 years of updates and no more from that.
The phone never got a feature always-on-display which is quite a bummer since the phone itself doesn't have an LED or such to tell you if you've got a notification, the only option available in the settings is when you lift your phone and it vibrates, that indicates you've got a notification.
Overall, this phone has and is still serving me great till this day, it is a great budget phone. I'd actually say both j5 and j7 2017 are the best due to the AMOLED screen you get, it's just a huge battery saver. In few weeks or maybe a month i'll have to switch to another better phone, since 16 GB of internal memory and 2 GB of ram is not enough for me.
