After the test, a small and handy Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 it came time to sum up the week using its bigger brother, the Galaxy A5 2016. Although seemingly differences between them are few, they are different enough to provide customers with considerable zagwozdki.
Starting this review from the appearance and quality Galaxy A5 2016 I could just refer readers to a recently published review of Galaxy A3 in 2016.

The contents of the box is identical – papierologia, pin tray for SIM / microSD, charger, average quality headphones that have been thrown perhaps just to serve as a radio antenna FM. Impressions after removing the smartphone from the box are relative to Galaxy A3 exactly the same, with only a few minor differences.
Samsung Galaxy A5 2016 is a visual mastery.
these differences are mainly due to the size of the device. Both smartphones is divided into half-inch diagonal screen. After several days of contact with the A3, A5 after taking the hand looked big and bulky. However, if you compare it with the rest of smartphones in sizes from 5.2 “to 5.7″, it turns out that in the hand really fantastic. For comparison, Huawei P8 almost the same size and the same diagonal screen in your hand much worse.
When the size of 144.80 x 71 x 7.30 mm and weighing 155 g Galaxy A5 2016 still remains reasonably handy smartphone, which is very good in the hand, although the combination of an aluminum frame and glass Gorilla glass 4 on the front and his back that makes a whole is very slippery. And in contrast to the A3, the smartphone is not so small that all the time hold it firmly with one hand.
Relative A3 very small, but noticeable in everyday use change is subtle shift lock button. In smaller smartphone was on fairly high, A5 in 2016 and placed him a little lower, so that has improved ergonomics.
Aside from these trifles, stylistically A5 2016 is – in my opinion – mastery. Even posing for photos next flagship Galaxy S6 this smartphone there is nothing to be ashamed of, especially in the color of platinum gold, which came to us for testing. Available on offer are also variants of black and white, with the gold looks in my opinion the best, and white the least conspicuous fingerprints that a series of Galaxy A attracts the dramatic even intensity.
Display of three class higher than the price suggests.
5.2 “display sAMOLED Galaxy A5 2016 bewitching. And I say this, as you can see on some of the pictures, putting it right next flagship Galaxy S6, and it means something. Lower than the flagship resolution does not work to the detriment of the device. 1920 x 1080 pixels is more than sufficient value at this size smartphone, and combined with sensational angles, very high brightness, great contrast and pleasant to the eye color saturation, gives us a panel, which makes you want to look.
Do not exaggerate saying that the displayed picture looks just like a sticker. For this panel can come down with the brightness level low enough that it can be comfortably used while lying in bed in the dark.
Regardless of whether you consume multimedia, play games, read articles, look through websites, display in the Galaxy A5 2016 does not disappoint. This is one of the strongest points of the smartphone and I can not fault him.
Galaxy A5 2016 may be beautiful, but it’s still hard average shelf.
as for the Galaxy A3, it is difficult under the hood detect similarly beautiful interior, as the outer housing of the device. Although the Galaxy A5 2016 relative to the smaller brother has a little bit more, its components still roughly come down to earth in case anyone thought he was holding in his hand flagship.

- front camera: 5 MP f / 1.9
- Connectivity NFC, LTE Cat. 4, Bluetooth 4.1 LE, GPS, FM radio
- OS : Android 5.1 with the overlay TouchWiz
specification is still not impressive, but – as I pointed out clearly in a review of a smaller smartphone – is noticeably more efficient than that with which we are dealing in the Galaxy A3 2016. First of all, we are dealing with a clearly faster processor and more memory. On paper, these differences may seem small, but in everyday use the difference in performance is most felt, especially when switching between applications
Change is sufficient to A5 in 2016 did not touch the problems smaller brother. Much less likely to meet here with przycięciami and przeładowaniami applications. Much rarer views will also reload icons on the home screen.
The software is still the same TouchWiz.
As with any other Samsung that transpired through my hands in the last year, and so here I have very mixed feelings about the overlay manufacturer. I am glad that this is no longer such garbage as two years ago, but still aesthetics of TouchWiz imposed on Android 5.1 Lollipop is too candy for my taste.
If someone design TouchWiz also does not respond, it can be modified by built shop motifs, or the installation of an external launcher. Fortunately overlay has been slimmed accordance with the upcoming Galaxy S6 and even weaker equipment does not cause performance problems.
It is a pity that Samsung stuffs still so much junk applications. Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, Office, several applications from Samsung, to the full portfolio of services and applications Google … for some of these supplements come in handy, but I think that for most is simply unnecessary occupying valuable space on your smartphone, which znowuż no yet so much. For the user with 16 GB of available remains suddenly 10.8 GB.
The camera is still a disappointment.
Relative Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 only difference in the camera is the optical stabilization of the main module. Unfortunately, it does not change practically nothing. Well, maybe a little bit faster camera catches the focus in poor lighting conditions. In addition, the results are exactly the same.
In good light optics Galaxy A5 2016 is doing well – not very, but not bad. The less light, however, the results worse. Still we do not have here also access to full manual settings, and only a few minor settings (exposure, ISO, white balance), the adjustment range is miserable. Therefore best to immediately pass on the machine and keep our fingers crossed for good results.
The same thing applies with the front camera, the operation of which does not knock, but it is quite solid. I do not know if it’s a matter of another processor, but as A3 2016 results were very “soft” (not distorted, but not quite sharp), so the A5 2016 picture is clearly less aggressively processed.
everyday Galaxy A5 in 2016.
How have used up every day with a new średniaka Samsung? Equally pleasant, or even better what with the previously described Galaxy Galaxy A5 A3 2016 2016 what the truth is not so handy, so his one-hand operation was often very difficult, but due to the differences in the specifications, greater display, and – above all – more battery impressions were really good.

Watching videos from YouTube was pure pleasure. Just like playing games. Even demanding productions dash on the A5 in 2016 without hesitation, though, of course, detailed graphics will not be as overwhelming as in the case of the Galaxy S6. Just as in the case of smaller brother, so here the whole experience multimedia slightly lowers the sound quality. Speaker playing softly and thinly quickly overdrives, and the sound from the headphone connector also does not knock.
Fortunately, these negatives do not translate into the quality of the talks, which is still crystal clear and distinct. This is not the level of the Galaxy S6, but in this price segment already talked a lot worse handset.
I am a little disappointed with the fingerprint reader. This is a very nice addition that adds up to a high level of security that Samsung implemented in the Galaxy series A through function Knox, but it works on a daily basis is sometimes annoying. The configuration is exactly the same as the flagship Samsungach. However, subsequent reliability is a completely different story. Not only that, the scanner is running slow, it is still even a little bit of sweat, grease or dirt on the smallest fingers or sensor results in an incorrect reading of a fingerprint, and, consequently, after several unsuccessful attempts, you enter the password. I must admit that the problem of nieodczytaniem fingerprint happened to me so often that in the end … I just turned off the safety, because it irritated me the need to manually enter a password of at least 3 times a day.
irritation associated with the fingerprint reader, however, overcame delight in working hours on a single charge. 2900 mAh combined with average specifications and FHD screen resulted in a really sensational sometimes work. Often I accomplished my more than five hours enabled screen, and the phone never even came close to discharge within one day. With my use, I could not keep it admittedly on a single charge for two days, but I think for most users this will be the – connection to the outlet more than once every two days will be simply superfluous. And as we have come a smartphone connected, thanks to quick-charger (which was lacking in A3 2016) instantly Allow the battery pack.
Galaxy A5 2016 or Galaxy S6?
in many places on the Web there are voices that many users may have a dilemma A5 between 2016 and last year, the flagship S6. Even Peter Grabiec in their first impressions threw this question in the space. As I had the opportunity to simultaneously use both, and also a few times before I used the S6 for a long time, I can immediately answer this question: the choice absolutely falls for the Galaxy S6.
the only advantage A5 terms of S6 is time to work on one charge. And the lower price, but in the end that we expect, buying a smartphone with a much weaker performance. If we put the question whether it is better to buy Galaxy S5 or A5 in 2016, then the answer would be quite different – A5 2016. However, if you compare the new średniaka last year’s flagship, is even though both share a very similar case, in which the hand makes the same good impression, it differences in the specifications, the daily operation and the camera does not leave A5 2016 no chance.
Many customers may also vary between the Galaxy A3 2016 and Galaxy A5 in 2016, but the question for whom is each of them, I will answer in separate material.
is it worth buying this smartphone?
Well, as for the A3 in 2016 in spite of everything, I had no doubt that it is worth their money, so when A5 2016 I do not dare give a so unequivocal opinion. Around 1,600 gold is no shortage in the market of great smartphones. Just mention that Huawei P8 (which has a much higher specification and the camera), or even the OnePlus 2. Not to mention the fact that much more cost devices such as LG G4 or Lenovo Moto X Style, a challenge with which A5 2016 can fight only appearance.
So A5 2016 at this time is a sensible purchase only in the operator and it is only if we get him a good deal. Unfortunately, the price “off the shelf” is at the moment too high, so I can honestly say that it is worthwhile to spend the money on a specific device. Nevertheless, when it will take several months after the launch, a smartphone to Drop, it will be an interesting proposition for those looking for a reasonable wydajnościowo smartphone in the housing, which can embarrass many a device from the top shelf.
