TechLineHD what about alcatel idol 4 3GB ram compared to A5. It is very cheap here in Croatia now. Is it better choice, or A5 is too much to bite. Thanks.
@@TechLineHD very well done actually. Accurate as well..but I will say. The A5 replaced the samsung S5 for me. I had been using the S5 for like 6ish years. Imho it's like an S5 but actually has the hardware to operate its featured uses. I mean No ..its still not like it counter parts. (The S8, S9, etc) but I love this phone. Especially once you unlock dev mode..lol battery life. Ram. Screen display and sound customization...its perfect for someone to utilize this phone to its limits in which ever way you choose to this time around...kudos to Samsung.. lol
so i found this phone laying on the ground it had been run over by a car so i bought a screen replacement kit and fixed it even tho it was run over in the rain it works perfectly so i got this phone for ruffly $100 and it docent even have a scratch on it
After almost 2 years with this phone all i have to say is that this phone is beast. I dropped it few times from pretty big height, not a single scratch. I use it rougly, all day and still get above 6:30h SOT, and it almost never lags. Cameras are even better now than before due to software updates, and they are pretty good. Everything just works fine and smooth, and i came accross a lot of devices and still haven't switch this one for them. I honestly never had any phone for this much long, but A5 2017 really surprises me every day, it's like a flagship not a midrange phone. I would def. recommend!
So i need a phone lately, its Jan. 2019, Canada. Should i buy an A5 (camera looks great compared to others) and forget about all the other mid-range phones at ($300) ? Thank you
it doesn`t lag and overheating when im using data while gaming like paradise war or zenonia s.. i love a7 2017 the battery is superb rather than my previous a7 2015 it 4x better battery life..
yes true. I do have A7 samsung 2017 and it's amazing for my work and light gaming. coming from s7 edge and iphone 6s. the fact is s8 or s8 plus gpu musch higher than A7 if you hardcore gamer just go for s8. Still, A7 2017 is best in everything you can and smooth .
@@maykel_546 my phone is also working properly but i want to check is my phone is still water proof . But not much aspections cause it's back case is opened
I bought my A5 couple months ago. Paid 267 € for it ( in Finland). I have no complaints whatsoever, it works perfectly and the built-guality is excellent. It fullfills my needs perfectly. It was a competition between A5 and iPhone 6. Your review pretty much decided the race in favour for A5, so big thanks for that😎😁. A Sidenote: Strangely the price has gone up, rather than down. Cheapest price is 301€, but it can cost up to 360€ depending on the dealership. Again, this is in Finland. I find this phenomenon quite peculiar. Anyways, keep up the good work! 🤓
Its perfect for the price. Other devices for this price look terrific. Don't forget this is 2017 not 2016 or 2015 model phone. Design is very good. We buyed it for 350$ US dollars without a contract and unlocked for any network.
TheMilenkata I think it is a good and welcome change for Samsung. I actually just saw 2 for $304 and $312 respectfully. If you can get it around that price, I think you're getting a decent deal. $400, not so much. Looks good with decent all-around specs though.
WE get it the beginning of February (02.01.2017) and after one week of use, the black paint from the metal started to fall. From Samsung tell us that this is impossible in their repair shop. It's really disappointing when you give 350 US $ for that phone and after one week in use with ORIGINAL SAMSUNG COVER (Clearview cover) this happened. Last phone was Samsung and this one is Samsung. But never again will buy Samsung. Also forget to mention that the phone never hit the floor!
TheMilenkata Wow what difference a month makes. Is that a foreign phone only? You mean to tell me Samsung won't give you you're money back or give you a replacement if you send it back? Did you buy it in as a store or by mail? They really should have replaced it.
Its buyed from one of the biggest firms for electronics in Bulgaria. The return for new things is 7 day from the date when its byed from the store, and 14 days when its byed from internet. Well in the 8 or 9 day of use I see that the paint is going off from the metal frame of the phone. Now the 7 day rule by law doesnt affect the store anymore, and they told us go and use the guarantee. The phone was two days in the official dealer of samsung for repairs and they called us to receive our phone back. When we arrived, they told us very arogantly. The problem is not from the phone. You drop it and that's why this happend. End of the story. You know when a phone with this kind of display and metal frame its dropped on the ground its gonna have some cracks or the metal is going to have clues from the hit to the ground right? Well the phone doesnt have nothing from this,but they told us with rude voice. Its dropped! Then i get mad i talk with samsung, they sayed we can do nothing if the repair service says that and this is. I upload picture to Samsung Bulgaria but no reaction of that.
I can't believe this channel has just 17K Subs... That's just unacceptable... Anyhow, I wonder what kind of idiot would pick the iPhone SE over this beauty with premium built quality, always-on display and STUNNING GraceUX with planned upgrade to Touchwiz Nougat...? Only an "iDiot" would...!
I love the a5´s in general. I bought one last year, and would love to continue using it, however the battery started expanding , so i am now changing it for a5 2017. The specs are muh better on this years model, so I expect great things!
This is Jan. 2019. I'm about to buy a midrange phone and undecided between the A5 and some other phones like an LG or Moto brand. What is comparable or better to the A5 in 2019?
@@bruceke13 I am targetting Motorola-G6 or LG-G6, and waiting for a sale around March or April. Stupid Costco in Canada has the Motorola G6 Play vs Costco US Motorola G6 (a bit better), haha. Costco has an insane 90 days return policy, haha, however, they have a very small selection of unlocked phones.
The "Always On Display" is draining the battery +- 25% faster. Trust me, I've literally tried it, bought new from the store, no apps or what so ever installed yet, no use of internet, didn't even make a call with the device, etc. It literally does drain your battery faster by about 25% (give or take). I disabled it aaaaaand...... yep, 2 extra standby days, oddly enough. Go figure, huh.
I own this phone and it's amazing guys. 😄 I've had it for 3-4 months now and I'm impressed! I definetly recommend you all this phone! Such an amazing phone, Samsung!
Hey Linus Great review style. Loovved it. Just want more reviews. U can make separate videos of a device like 1.UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS 2. GAMING 3. FAQ VIDEO 4. ORIGINAL REVIEW. That's how u can get more views, likes and SUBSCRIBERS. Hope a great day
Andreas Loosman op3t isn't Available where I live and terrible support , Samsung is way better stop telling people to buy that junk Chinese phone design is shit everything is shit
Wow TBH I really like your way of presenting each subject one by one & your conclusion was great I subscribe you bro. Only few UA-camrs present like this and I do appreciate it a lot thank you so much I'll be your daily viewer from today 😘
hey, thanks a lot for the support! I'm glad you liked it! Yeah, I always try to divide videos into sections. I will also try to make it even more clear in the near future :)
Farhad Afsharnejad the performance is amazing very fast no lag what so ever, i havent had any overheating, the cameras are awesome but it leaks at stabilization but it isn't a deal breaker. In my opinion its one of the best midrange phone of 2017.
MoToRcYcLe so if i’m not wrong , the image quality is perfect and selfie has no problem and the only problem is the lack of ois in terms of video shooting ? am i right or wrong ?
I have samsung galaxy A5 2017 and yet the camera stabilization issue is the only "problem" despite all the great other stuff the A5 can do and the only solution I find to be working for getting a nice focused pictures is to always shot with the burst mode. You might have to spend some time after taking your pics to choose the best out of the burst shot but in my opinion that is the only way to get a clear shot with this phone. 😊
I am too spoiled with phones,i need a Radio FM feature built in because i like to use it while working and for me it's extremely important. i am very much doubt it if the S8 is going to have this feature. the A5 has a Radio FM so i will try to adjust to the physical home button,i guess.
The only good thing about home button for Samsung phones is the fact that you can launched the camera in it. With that, I hope that there'll be dedicated camera button as a replacement in S8 and Note8.
thanks! I don't use the apps to check that. I use the phone in different places and keep track of the signal reception and the call quality. That is more true to life scenario than just using the app :)
the a5 2016 had a better design . its still using the glass and metal . just that its more rectangular rather than rounded just looking like s6 or s7 . not saying its a bad thing but meh , it just looks something isnt fresh or new. i suggest getting s7 rather than this a5 2017 if you ask me .
Very nice review. I have to say, that I've never seen as good as this one. You mentioned everything important. I liked you showed the camera. I know, it's not very good but it's all about it. Thanks for the review. ;)
fool you can get for 310 dollars planty of others phone even s7 edge whitch is 2 times better one plus 3t even xiaomi note 5 pro is better on 210 dollars price you really dont have no clue about phones do you?!
TechLineHD Now that will be a nice one 👍😁. Can you see the improvement in Touchwiz I mentioned to you the other day. I noted you saying no lags on the A5 which is great news for Sammy fans I guess 😉
Hi! I'm from Portugal 🙌. I've a galaxy s4 mini bought in 2015 and it sucks. it is very slow and i need a new phone. If i buy this phone, will it becoming slow with the time? Thanks, nice video! 👍😊
Hi. Every Samsung phone before Galaxy S6 used a lot of cheap internal hardware components. That's why the phones slowed down over the time. With this one you will be ok. I had the Galaxy S3 myself....
What this video lacks is direct comparison of the camera to A5 2016 model. Even couple words in the summary would do. New intro is OK , not like the previous one wasn't.
Creuss Drey no one's dumb enough to buy this over the 3T oh. Wait actually yes there are they are called Samsung sheeple and they're just as bad as the Tim Cook Dickriders.
yeah but it all comes back to the needs. If you're an outdoor person then maybe A5 is a better deal. I personally prefer OP3T because I dont think that I need water resistant? The only water problem I'm facing is just probably rain but I've been using OPX for a year and it works fine even though I use it under the rain for a few times
DarkShadow64 this phone is gr8 and I personally think it is at par at op 3t considering it is still a bit costly than the a5 op 3t's camera performance is better than a5's but gaming is gr8 on both the devices as they are not much highly or ultra graphics games on mobiles. But still ur op 3t Overkill's it A5 has an IP68 rating which makes it a lot more durable and rugged phone for our Indian climate. Samsung has service centres all over the globe where op does not. IN THE END I JUST WANNA SAY THAT BOTH DEVICES R GR8 WID OP3T BEING BETTER, M JUST SAYING THAT D A5 IS GR8 PHONE TOO
Hi, I bought the Samsung a7 2017 because I thought the 16mp front camera would beat the s7. But it doesn't. And also no ois. Do you think these are good enough reasons to upgrade to s7?
You laughing at iPhone too? Surely that device doesn't have led notification. It's 2017, and still concern about led notification? It's time for always on display.
Eh...no. The GPU is inbetween the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy S5's performance (but much newer API support, that helps) and the CPU is worse than the Galaxy S6. There's also no UFS memory like the S6, S7 etc. This is a midranger, priced like a high-end. Barely cheaper than the S7 and notably worse
Hey, Linus! Great video, I like the new intro, it looks professional. Do you think it is worth paying extra to get the s7? Thanks for the unbiased review.
Thanks Linus. So it has an advantage over S7 which is finger print unlocking from standby and USB-C. But for and S7 look-alike I would get myself a well rounded OnePlus 3T.

fool you can get for 310 dollars planty of others phone even s7 edge whitch is 2 times better one plus 3t even xiaomi note 5 pro is better on 210 dollars price you really dont have no clue about phones do you?!
Nice review and great intro. Like always keep up the good work 👍 😉 dude
thanks as always buddy! Working on the GS7 edge vs. A5 2017 comparison video already :)
TechLineHD Now that will be a nice one 👍😁. Can you see the improvement in Touchwiz I mentioned to you the other day. I noted you saying no lags on the A5 which is great news for Sammy fans I guess 😉
I love your cat 😊
I have an S7, but I really love that black metal edge over the silver. Do they make skins for just the edge?
Also, USB-C and Grace UX?? This phone is a pretty good deal!!!
Im watching this on a samsung a5 2017
Great video! Any chance I can have your opinion on, what is the best water resistant budget phone? Hoping you will have some recommends...
thanks! Actually, this one is one of the best options!
Hi! I'm from Portugal 🙌.
I've a galaxy s4 mini bought in 2015 and it sucks. it is very slow and i need a new phone.
If i buy this phone, will it becoming slow with the time?
Thanks, nice video! 👍😊
Hi. Every Samsung phone before Galaxy S6 used a lot of cheap internal hardware components. That's why the phones slowed down over the time. With this one you will be ok. I had the Galaxy S3 myself....
TechLineHD Ok, thank you. Hugs from Portugal. Wish you all the best.
I also own S3 and it's very slow now:) However, I'm using now S5 and it's really fast:)
Rafael Gouveia história um from Portugal to ahaha
It's slow because you have too much internal storage space and need to delete some data
great review, btw which camera u think better, asus zenfone 3 or a5 2017? samsung did remove the OIS in this A5 2017 .
hi. I would say that the A5 as a slightly better camera but I don't have the Zenfone 3 anymore to compare the image quality
wow, if the A5 is better even without all the feature that Zenfone 3 offer, i absolutely gonna buy A5.
Im gonna buy it.
Would you go for Galaxy S5 (2014) or for this new A5?
Thank you for the nice video.
Someone can tell me, buy a5 2017 or s7?
Ray Soemantri A5 of course! For the money you cant get wrong!
How are you my friend?? I bought the phone a month ago but a question ?? Does Virtual Reality support?
400+$?
It's 370$ here man
yeah, the prices really depend on the region and the place you want to buy it from. I checked that some retailers sell it for 430 EUR lol
Erza Bryantara its $528 here
Erza Bryantara 370$ here too
Great review, one more thing, what version of Android does it come out of the box?
thanks. Android 7!
SETYMEDIAA
Danny Alvarez yes
What this video lacks is direct comparison of the camera to A5 2016 model. Even couple words in the summary would do. New intro is OK , not like the previous one wasn't.
unfortunately, I don't have the a5 2016 model anymore, so cant compare the cameras.
nice new Intro
Lukas Holmes thanks!
Nice and compact analysis. Keep it up.
$400? hell nah. *OnePlus 3T* all the way!
Creuss Drey no one's dumb enough to buy this over the 3T oh. Wait actually yes there are they are called Samsung sheeple and they're just as bad as the Tim Cook Dickriders.
DarkShadow64 as a Samsung fan. we aren't as bad as apple fans but I gotta agree that op3t is way better but it doesn't have ip68.
yeah but it all comes back to the needs. If you're an outdoor person then maybe A5 is a better deal. I personally prefer OP3T because I dont think that I need water resistant? The only water problem I'm facing is just probably rain but I've been using OPX for a year and it works fine even though I use it under the rain for a few times
DarkShadow64 this phone is gr8 and I personally think it is at par at op 3t considering it is still a bit costly than the a5
op 3t's camera performance is better than a5's but gaming is gr8 on both the devices as they are not much highly or ultra graphics games on mobiles. But still ur op 3t Overkill's it
A5 has an IP68 rating which makes it a lot more durable and rugged phone for our Indian climate.
Samsung has service centres all over the globe where op does not.
IN THE END I JUST WANNA SAY THAT BOTH DEVICES R GR8 WID OP3T BEING BETTER, M JUST SAYING THAT D A5 IS GR8 PHONE TOO
$400?
Amazon offers them for less than $350.
Hi, I bought the Samsung a7 2017 because I thought the 16mp front camera would beat the s7. But it doesn't. And also no ois. Do you think these are good enough reasons to upgrade to s7?
No notification led at 400+ dollars? Don't make me laugh
always on display makes it useless
Abhyuday Krishna well you have the always on display that other phones that cheap doesnt
Abhyuday Krishna hey dude soon or later LED notification will destroyed by "Always on display"
Abhyuday Krishna iPhone 7 doesn't have that or always on display for about 800 dollars
You laughing at iPhone too? Surely that device doesn't have led notification. It's 2017, and still concern about led notification? It's time for always on display.
Great review! How does the Samsung Galaxy J7 compare to this one? Thanks!
Thanks. A5 is a better phone overall.
Expensive AF
march aries bernadas you just can't buy it cuz you don't have money !!!
Marcello Manuel It's priced almost as high as an S7, get out of here
Alcahas so ? A series is a High-end phone ! It means that this phone almost like Flagship !
Eh...no. The GPU is inbetween the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy S5's performance (but much newer API support, that helps) and the CPU is worse than the Galaxy S6. There's also no UFS memory like the S6, S7 etc. This is a midranger, priced like a high-end. Barely cheaper than the S7 and notably worse
Alcahas really ? Who say that ? From what i know samsung create A and C series for High-end ! For spec or GPU and etc who cares !
Your video quality always great 👍
thank you!
not worth the money.
but nice device.

Am torn between HTC U ultra and Samsung Galaxy A5 2017. Please advise
How is the Samsung Galaxy a5 for Pokemon Go? Do you need a7 or s8 to play?
Nice review! keep those up!!
Sebastian Nguyen thanks! will do that
Which selfie camera is better, on samsung galaxy a5 2017 or sony xperia xa1 Ultra?
im thinking of buying A7 2017. Will this phone hang or become slow after 2 ys same way my galaxy grand prime did?
What about the a7 is it just like the a5 but bigger or dose it have any differences
Hey man! Great video! A5 2017 or One Plus 5? Difference between the two is around 120$ in my country
thanks. One Plus 5 is a better phone
Good review!
Hey, Linus! Great video, I like the new intro, it looks professional.
Do you think it is worth paying extra to get the s7?
Thanks for the unbiased review.
UPP3RCU7 thanks a lot! yeah I would personally pay a little extra for the S7 mainly for the camera and more powerful chipset
I got this today and I like this way better than my galaxy s6 edge
I got the A5 for Christmas and I love it.I got the A5 2017 for $330 us dollars
I upgraded to the S10+ and didn't use it for 7months because I lived the A5 too much
Can't believe I got the A5 2017 of £17.99 a month
I sent my S10 back and bought another S7. I thought that phone was stupid
Thanks Linus.
So it has an advantage over S7 which is finger print unlocking from standby and USB-C.
But for and S7 look-alike I would get myself a well rounded OnePlus 3T.
hey. The full Galaxy A5 vs the S7 edge comparison review is coming out tomorrow. Yeah, I still have the OnePlus 3T and still love it since the day 1.
