Anonymous, 11 Dec 2023I still use my A3 and I would continue to use it if the fingerprint sensor would work reliably... moreYoure almost right but my fingerprint sensor works well with a horizontal tap on the home button within a second but its ram and rom are enough to use in this time but its still good i should say btw and its a beautiful phone 😄

Anonymous, 15 Oct 2021Sadly samsung or any other Android OEM hasn't made a successor to this iphone 8 knockoff ... moreIt's iPhone 8 in size, not in design per se.
To get stellar battery life, even years after release, you must purchase phones containing efficient processors, such as Exynos 7570, 7578, 7580, 7870 (shoutout), 7880, 850, 1330. Qualcomm had some ones in Snapdragon 620-629 if I recall correctly. MediaTek likewise.

Samsung added 2 touch switches for multitasking and going back... Def my next phone as I wanted to buy it in 2017 and 2019!

I still use my A3 and I would continue to use it if the fingerprint sensor would work reliably. But it doesn't, it unlocks the phone sometimes, maybe 1 or 2 times out of 10 tries. Slowish and low on memory, but reliable and all-round good phone. If only the fingerprint sensor would work more often.

Anonymous, 17 Nov 2023The best phone I've ever gotten. Still works like a charm after all these years. Samsung ... moreIt's still the most reliable phone I ever owned, Battery still lasts a day on modest use, but sadly some of the apps I need to use don't work on a3. I need to use google map regularly and it takes ages to load. 😭

Anonymous, 04 May 2023This is the best phone i ever had, all apps working fine except for the lagging web browser in... moreAgree. I've wasted a lot of money by replacing my a3 with all the latest phones. After trial-and -errors for the last 2 years I've decided that a3 is still the best phone I've owned.

It was 2 years ago when I thought my a3 was finally passing its use by date. I tried s10e, iphone 13 mini, google pixel 7a but still was using a3 as my spare.
Sadly all 3 let me down. Iphone 13 mini was great but the photos were always bluey and dark, the format had to be converted and having no fingerprint scanner was an inconvenience too. Other 2 turned out to be lemons.
Now I am back to using a3 as my main phone. It's actually better than all three. Apart from internet speed being rather slow, battery still lasts me a day, with decent camera and audio. Now I don't play games anymore the space is no issue.

To be honest, I had a samsung A3 before, it was amazing at first but the storage was getting really low, really fast.

This is the best phone i ever had, all apps working fine except for the lagging web browser in few sites lately, never crashed since i bought it in 2017, fit in all pockets, a hardware proximity sensor that never fail, 3.5 jack and micro sdcard, just uninstall and disable unused bloatware apps for keep the storage free.
Still didn't find any good replacement for this awesome phone at an affordable price.

I purchased this phone around feb 2018. It was slowing down and had minor issues, so I had stopped using it for a year and got myself an iPhone. As much as I love 5G connectivity of my new iPhone, a3 is actually a lot easier to use overall. I took it to a repair place and they fixed all the hiccups I was experiencing for free of charge. Now this phone works like a dream.
