New Samsung galaxy a5. Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) - Specifications

General characteristics

Type

Deciding on the type of device (phone or smartphone?) is quite simple. If you need a simple and inexpensive device for calls and SMS, it is recommended to choose a telephone. A smartphone is more expensive, but it offers a wide variety of options: games, videos, the Internet, thousands of programs for all occasions. However, its battery life is significantly less than that of a regular phone.

Design

About a year ago, the Galaxy A5 became one of the first Samsung smartphones to receive a metal body. Still, its sharp edges and boring lines will prevent the gadget from winning the best design competition. The novelty reminds its appearance the current flagship Galaxy S6, as it has a glass back cover.

Specifications Galaxy A5 (2016) and Galaxy A5 (2015)

While the original Galaxy A5 wasn't slow in everyday use, its quad-core Snapdragon processor The 410 was already showing mediocre performance results. The new Galaxy A5 (2016) is equipped with an octa-core Exynos 7580, which has excellent performance.

The device memory remains unchanged. These are the same 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage. Interestingly, although the Galaxy A5 (2016) copies the design of the Galaxy S6 almost completely, it is equipped with a slot for microSD memory cards. In general, the smartphone offers very good characteristics compared to its predecessor.

Galaxy A5 (2015) offers the user Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels, and its successor screen with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, which is significantly larger. The pixel density of the Galaxy A5 (2016) is 424 ppi versus 294 ppi in the Galaxy A5 (2015).
Battery

Very often, consumers express their wishes to the manufacturer to increase the battery capacity, instead of making the device thinner. It looks like Samsung has done just that: the A5 (2016) is slightly thicker than its predecessor (7.3 mm vs. 6.7 mm), allowing for a larger battery (2900 mAh vs. 2300 mAh). New device even surpassed the company's premium gadget Galaxy S6, which is equipped with a 2550 mAh battery. Of course, the new product has yet to be tested in real conditions before drawing conclusions, but it has great chances to become one of best gadgets By battery life in its category.

The camera of the Galaxy A5 (2016) has not undergone major changes compared to the Galaxy A5 (2015). The updated smartphone received the same 13-main and 5-megapixel front camera. Although the gadget is now equipped with an optical image stabilization system, and the aperture has become slightly larger - f/1.9. It's worth noting that you can quickly launch the camera double click to the “Home” button.

You may be disappointed by the lack of 4K video and real-time HDR capabilities.

Functions and Features

As already mentioned, the new A5 has received a number of very important features. This includes optical stabilization, a screen with perfect resolution and an improved battery. Apart from the metal body and AMOLED display, the first Galaxy A5 does not have any other advantages over its competitors, although it does have a card slot microSD memory.

Galaxy A5 (2016) retained the last two functions, and also received support for fingerprint scanner technology, which was previously only available on flagship devices, and fast charging. These features are extremely useful, and for many they become decisive when choosing a smartphone.

Software

Got the best part for last? - you ask? Sorry, no. The same story happened with the Galaxy A5 (2016) as with its predecessor. The new product works in the operating room Android system 5.1.1 Lollipop, although almost 3 months have passed since the release of Android 6.0. Of course, I would like Samsung to care more about the software of its gadgets. The freshness of the OS also has great value.
It is worth noting that the new optimized TouchWiz, combined with improved hardware, leaves only a pleasant sensation, regardless of Android versions.

Taking all of the above into account, two things are quite clear. Firstly, the manufacturer takes competition seriously in the mid-segment smartphone market, combining high-quality build and large number really useful functions.

Samsung Galaxy The A5 (2016) is much more than just an updated version of its predecessor. From some angles it looks even better flagship smartphone Galaxy S6.

On the eve of the new year 2016, Samsung Electronics officially announced updated version one of its either flagships or state employees - the A5 model. The smartphone is already selling quite successfully in China, and the start of European sales is planned for the first quarter of 2016.

Main differences from the previous version

So what is the difference between the updated Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) from its predecessor Samsung Galaxy A5 (2014) ? The answer is simple: first of all – dimensions. The phone has become a little larger, wider and thicker (145/71/7.3 mm with a weight of 155 grams), has become more powerful and fast processor Exynos 7580 with eight cores and a more capacious (2900 mAh) battery, as well as fast charging function.

In addition, it was equipped with a fingerprint scanner and a more advanced version of Android OS. Although it is still the same “lollipop”, but the version is already 5.1.1, on top of which the branded Touch Wiz shell is installed. When will it be official update on latest firmware Android 6.0 is not yet known, however, this is in the immediate plans of Korean manufacturers.

Display and appearance

The Koreans remained true to themselves in the general style - the same sharp edges, straight lines, and the signature button. Body: the combination of metal and glass is a pleasant surprise. Although maybe they claim their own vision of beauty?

New display Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) made using Super AMOLED technology and has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels with a density of 424ppi, which is almost double that of its predecessor. At the same time, its diagonal increased by only 0.2 inches.

What was and what appeared

IN new version A5 has the ability to make safe mobile payments V Samsung system Pay using NFC or MST using a fingerprint scanner. It also became possible to use one of the SIM card inputs as a slot for MicroSD cards up to 128 GB.

As before, they are used in the smartphone Nano SIM maps, there is: an accelerometer, orientation, ambient light and proximity sensors, as well as a compass and a Hall sensor. All audio and video formats are supported, and the cameras now have optical image stabilization.

What are we waiting for and what will we get?

The smartphone works in all types of networks and supports all major communication standards. It’s difficult to say which of the other devices of a similar class the A5 will compete with; we can only assume that it will be Meizu MX5 or Xiaomi Mi 4.

How popular will this be in Europe? new gadget– is still a secret, but now we can confidently predict that it will take its rightful place in the Samsung Galaxy line.
