Samsung Galaxy A5 2017

   The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 is a mid-range smartphone that cost $400. It comes with several key features:  It uses the t Snapdragon 615 processor and comes with a 16 megapixel, f/1.9 rear camera and  a 16 megapixel, f/1.9 front camera. The body of this smartphone is a full metal unibody design and has 32GB of storage and a microSD expansion. This phone is IP68 water resistant and a USB-C port. the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 has a 5.2 inch screen , The bezel of the phone is kept at a minimum level. Is moderately curved and this is what makes it easy to hold. The colors of this phone come in subdued colors of Black Sk, Gold Sand, Blue Mist and Peach Cloud. These colors look very good. The headphone jack can be seen at the lowest part of the smartphone and near the USB Type-C port. The speaker is located on the top side. The speaker is good enough but I would not say it is superb. The fingerprint scanner can be located on the front side.. It has a microSD card slot and it can handle up to 256GB cards. The nano-SIM  card can be seen on the top and the volume keys are on the right side. It is good that the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 is IP68 water resistant.

  The AMOLED Display looks very good because it gives additional brightness. The 1080p FHD resolution is so ideal for this smartphone. The new octa-core Exynos 7880 processor is better than it’s 2016 version. It clocks a bit of higher speed.  It is the 14mm manufacturing process that makes the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 mid-range processor fascinating.  A lower number like 14mm makes the processor more productive. The overall performance of this smartphone is good. The apps, photos and video streams run perfectly on this phone. It has 3GB of RAM and this is just right for a middle-range smartphone. I would advise the user not to play intensive games on this phone.  The Mali-T830 graphics is quite sufficient for this mid-range smartphone.  It now has a cleaner and whiter User Interface. This phone also features a Secure Folder. It’s  a place where you can put your private passwords, documents and photos. The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 has split screen multi-tasking. It has DPI ( Dots Per Inch ) alterations. The rear facing camera can be depended on to shoot good looking pictures and the front facing camera can be used for selfies. The video is good for ordinary needs.

   The Battery is a 3,000mAh cell and it cannot be removed. The battery can last for at least 1 day. Because the processor is very effective, it does conserve the energy used by the battery. It has fast charging capabilities. This means it can take you 0 -80% in one hour. Yow will get 100% charging in an hour and 30 minutes, when you use the USB Type-C charger that comes with this smartphone. For a mid-range phone, I would say that this is a good phone to acquire.
