- Best A Series Ever Made
From all the Samsung phone I own, this is probably the one I love the most. I like its size and the feature it have in such a compact and solid package. At that time, it was probably the best phone at its price range. During its release, it carry such a special feature that other manufacturer doesnt have on that price range, which is the ip68 waterproof.
I like how it feel. Its thin, solid and comfortable to hold. The size is perfect for me because I hate big screen like phone nowadays even though I have a big hand and long finger. The screen and the camera are the most interesting, camera quality is really good, I trust my phone to take reliable pictures.
On the video recording, its good enough. I just hope that it have a fancy feature like optical stabilization.
Screen is nice, the colour shines since it has an Amoled display. But unfortunately the audio is just mediocore quality, no stereo speaker, its kinda quiet. But dont worry, the sound quality is still great and I really love the speaker posisitioning.
On the performance I cant tell too much. On gaming, the chipset is kinda struggling. For everyday task, I have no words.
Battery life was unreal, it is soo power efficient. I don't need to worry to carry my charger around.
Overall, I really like it. I like the size and the build quality remembering how compact it is. I'm really satisfied with this phone.Pros- Ip68
