Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) - user opinions and reviews

A great phone, I've been using it for 5 years now, excellent battery (lasts from morning till evening) and camera. Compared to other upper mid range phones from 2017, it is awesome. I don't use it for gaming but for standard everyday use, bought 32gb memory card for pics and videos.
The speaker on this phone is WAY too quiet. Even at full volume you can barely hear anything at all. You need to install a volume booster app JUST for this phone to be at least adequate for media consumption in general. That alone is a red flag, and I don't recommend anyone get the 2017 model Samsung Galaxy A5. Even the 2015 and 2016 models had a louder speaker output.

Just swapped the battery. Not easy an easy thing. Truly waterproof.
Will keep it until Samsung start producing 2017 quality again.

Good phone, but nowadays, I have problem to install new app (like MS Word) that doesn't work anymore with the android version of this phone.
Also, the screen became a little strange, with some signs of my keyboard and some icons forever "printed" lightly on the screen, it's like some kind of shadow.

i got that phone in 2017 and used it until 2021 , five years in total and it was amazing.
compact, water resistant, good battery, amazing screen and very clear camera photos.
I can still use it today but unfortunately I cracked the screen by accident but it still works great.

I have two, been using one since new. Sturdy enough, expandable micro SD card, and great processing power for the price.

Genuinely a decent phone saying that its 6 years since my mum bought it, its been 3 years since she gave it me, cracked it, looks kinda better tbh. its worked fine for WhatsApp but NOT for gaming. it does the job until i get her s10+ soon.

Great quality! My mom's phone is still going strong. AccuBattery estimates only 7% loss/wear over five years. Fantastic! Putting today's phones to shame.
