    After Samsung lost plenty of money with note 7 , now they just want to squeeze as much as they can from their fans. They know they will buy every years model, so lets make them more expensvive than last year but without uprading them much.

        Similar priced: IphoneSE, S7, G5. There are also older like Z5Premium, note4, 950XL. What would you choose? Definitely not this...

I'm not talking about Huawei but all the other brands. There are no service centers for Xiamo, Meizu etc. in my country The Netherlands. Also I don't trust Chinese brands. Installed spyware on Lenovo laptops, also spyware on some Chinese brand phones. I would pay more money for brands that I trust like Samsung, Sony, HTC, LG and Nokia, which can be repaired if there's something wrong with my phone. My S6 had a problem with auto-rotation last year, what if that happened to my cheap Chinese phone? Should I have sent it to China and not knowing if or when I will ever get it back?

              As a user for both the previous a3 and a5 2016, if you can find either models for substantially lower prices (eBay or good contract) then the A series is Deffo worth it. £400 for this model and £300 for A3 is just to much. Especially with cheaper and better specced smartphones from Chinese brands. If A5 was £300 and A3 £200 then it would be easiar to stomach. However, I've seen a new s6 go for £200 and s6 edge for £250.

                              Very good battery life, although the phone is slightly overpriced. I liked the comparison that shows the gulf (of quality) between the front camera and the rear camera.

                                      I love Samsung more than any other brands, but one thing I hate about them is that they launch to much phones. Just launch one phone in one phone range and make that a great one

                                        although smartphones last year galaxy s6 far cheaper than a5 2017 it also has gpu and memory better than a5 2017, and again surprisingly galaxy a3 2017 is the same price as galaxy s6 to present, A list of samsung always very expensive
