                  Does samsung a5 have anti- shake. Usually takes me a few tries before I get an unblurry picture. I had an s5 before the a5 and my pics were always clear. Sometimes I'd like to go back to my s5. I love taking pictures but this mobile phone drives me crazy.

                        Sam, 22 Jun 2018 You need a case for this phone as it will scratch at first drop.I've regretted ever since i bought it in 2017. The main reason is the camera. The photos taken are very poor quality. Two friends of mine also had this phone and had the same issue. Ip68 went under water, when pack panel came off after about 1.5yrs of use. Glue got melted apperantly due to charging heat. Huawei Nova 2i which my wife got produces great photos compared to this even today.

                                  Very good phone. When I got it it was upgraded to Oreo so it was sleek and efficient.

                                        After using this phone for 2 years ... I can definitely say this is a great phone and you'll struggle to find these specs today in another phone for this price.

                                        It's sad to see so many phones switch over to rear fingerprint sensor when it is so much better at the front. There have been so many times where I just want to see something on my phone and every time I appreciate not having to pick it up to unlock it.
                                        I've taken great underwater videos throughout it's life.
                                        I appreciated the headphone jack.
                                        I didn't put a screen protector on and now 2 years later it still doesn't have a single crack.

                                        PS. Just thought I'd come here and appreciate my new old phone as I'm browsing for an upgrade with no hurry.
