A- series – a rare case when Samsung smartphones purchased in the first place for the design. Last year’s trio of smartphones has become the best selling models of the brand after the flagship S6 / S6 edge. And it all began with an experiment in which they themselves samsungovtsy does not hurt to believe – amid criticism Design Galaxy S5 and shouting “why again imitation metal housing for such a money ?!” Koreans launched a pilot for Galaxy Alpha “are still those” 25 thousand rubles … and sale of modest power, but looks beautiful smartphone surprised themselves. After that Samsung launched a successful concept in a series of devices, and by early 2016 they prepared successors.
By the way, Galaxy A3 and A5 of the previous generation will continue to go to the assembly line and become a cheaper alternative to new products. But Galaxy A7 walked away into history, so as not to embarrass the closest to the second generation characteristics customers new products.
Since the manufacturer is so sure of the success of the “youngest» A-smart (and also because the new A5 and A7 structurally very close) – we will check to determine whether members of a nice sort of Samsung to grow in capacity to the current level.

Design and Management
The Koreans, as they can resist the domination of the metal in their smart phones (which is typical, the HTC is bucking the problem) – with the change of generations metal rear panel in the case of smartphones has given way to tempered glass. On the one hand – regression (many Samsung fans still cherish the dream of all-metal silver Galaxy), the other – under a layer of matte paint the notorious metal still was not a flashy piece, as is customary in the fashion models. And so – at least respected, “the general line of design” and the similarities with the flagship Galaxy S.
In fact the Samsung get updates for updates – when you look at two generations of smartphones inexperienced buyer will not understand where new and old where representatives of the series. And even in terms of practicality comes stalemate: old men can safely survive the fall on the “back” (the new Galaxy A in such conditions also did not crumble in the “crumb” but crack on the glass you are guaranteed), but the new A3 6 and A5 6 generously wrapped in metal on all four faces, and give the infamous cold metal in his hand far more noticeable. And they are less likely to slip in the hand during natural grip. But the rear panel is slippery, as befits a glass – it is necessary to leave the smartphone at least a sloping chair and he voluntarily “leave” down. With fingerprints all depends on the color of the body: on the white versions, they are not visible, but the dark smart polluted rather quickly.
From our two heroes A3 draws a lot of attention – simply because with the exception of the iPhone and Xperia Z Compact quality smartphone with a diagonal of 5 inches less than the afternoon with fire not find. Modern miniature mobile phone, with a reasonable thickness and compact frames on either side of the display, just a pleasure to use – if only because of the fact that it is not necessary to intercept by using one hand.
Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 model year – one of the most beautiful compact smartphone
Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) – an endangered species of beautiful compact smartphone
Galaxy A5 perceived differently – it looks like a more brutal and a cut version of “flat» S6- On Smartphone less playful in appearance, with a faceted body and not so vulgar sticking out the rear of the camera. And, incidentally, the most compact among the popular mobile phones with a display of 5.2 inches: Sony Xperia Z5, Huawei Honor 7, LG Nexus 5X, Microsoft Lumia 950 – every single one of our bigger hero. Less power – less body, always be so.
Galaxy A5 looks sharpened version of the S6-th, and it goes in his favor
In contrast to the older counterparts , A3 deprived fingerprint scanner – annoying, but okay. But why the two smartphone cheated indicator events or front panel – only one known to Koreans. Maybe just “to life honey did not seem” in comparison with the owners of the flagship models.
Display and Audio
Both smartphones are able to track the eyes of the owner and does not extinguish the display, as long as you do not stop to look at the image on it. Four color modes (adaptive, film, photo and principal) is also in place – Samsung please both fans prohibitively powerful color AMOLED, and all those who advocate for ensuring that colors are as close as possible to the standard “instrument”, even at the expense of her entertainment. We, of course, in their dimensions resorted to the second option.
The viewing angles are good, quality oleophobic coating fine (displays almost no contamination in everyday use), tempered glass allows to operate the smartphone without a case without fear of scratching the screen , the contrast at the Super AMOLED prohibitively high (because to display perfect black display “off” certain pixels), and the brightness looks cheerful even against more powerful in this regard IPS-display – 365 cd / m2 at A3 and 410 cd / m2 . This stock will suffice for “readable” images even in bright summer day. But then begins the nuances …
Earlier grit from Galaxy A3 did was seams: 960×540 pixels at 4.5 inches diagonally – so shameless characteristics that you feel uncomfortable, even just voicing them out loud.
The new model of the characteristics of the situation is better, but at the vicinity of the Galaxy A5 and its Full HD resolution look at the younger model, and tormented by the thought that here is something it is not so. And the thing in technology Pentile (structural features of the pixel AMOLED-matrix, whereby each display slightly reduced clarity), which is “minimally decent” today 1280×720 pixels lets you distinguish between the best individual dots in the display from a distance of 5-8 cm.
And, in principle, the devil would be with them, with these perfectionists, looked at the display cell phone in the face – but then the rest of the customers one can comprehend the understanding, they say, “get out, Vasya’s all the same 1280×720 pixels at IPS-matrix, and shaped as letters in the text outlines a little better. ” The effect of Pentile like a cheap film pasted on the screen – the picture does not deteriorate so fatal, but as they used to say Don Juan, “feelings are not the same».
HD-resolution on PenTile -matrix Galaxy A3 turns flabby fonts and, at times, the ability to discern individual pixels. Annoyingly
At Galaxy A5 is a problem not at all, and generally display characteristics quite good: in both cases we get a commendable low deviation DeltaE (2,02 and 2,78 Galaxy A3 and from A5), color a temperature of about 6700K and 6400K in the younger and the older model, respectively, and the same range of 2.4 in both cases. Color Gamut Galaxy A5 in the “core” is a little wider than sRGB, and in the “a-third,” it is a little further from the standard, so the colors in an accessible Galaxy A-Series will be in any case a little richer than it fitting to be.
As part of the sound, both smartphones have shown their best side: speakerphone announce the space around them is no worse than in the more well-fed smartphone competitors. At Galaxy A5 speaker a little stronger and clearer (which, incidentally, is not always an advantage), from A3-of sharpness and volume slightly reduced (you can safely put a call melody with the “ts-ts-shhh” in the beginning), but, unlike brother, noticeably slight influence of the metal in the body to the sound.
As for smartphones without a claim to a sharp sound, the new Galaxy A sound very nice – small roughness can be eliminated in a fancy Manager audio
Music player and manager of sound in the Samsung Galaxy A3 and A5 (2016)
The headphones all too well – ahead of us, of course, not a flagship, but the volume for non- -audiofilskih set missing completely, and in the audio player saved all the “bells and whistles” top models, except, perhaps, the function UHQ Upscaler, which align audio tracks in MP3-S6 edge +. Subjectively, our heroes sound better than, for example, LG Nexus 5X and Sony Xperia M5. Earpiece please clear sound, the volume is sufficient for all scenarios, the microphones work flawlessly.
Hardware
Processors for the new A-series produced … guess who? Correct, Samsung! Here you have an example of the correct “import substitution”: Koreans and plant your could use for personal needs, at the same time punish the dollar Qualcomm for former negligence and bargain for themselves exclusive conditions for the new Snapdragon (Preamble to the case, if you are at all interested in undercover games all the smartphone makers) .
CPU Power (test Geekbench)
Warm greetings to the amateurs, who in their reviews is credited Galaxy A3 «special quad-core version» Exynos 7580 – behold, ladies and gentlemen, the correct index for the chip, which is called Exynos 7578.
Representatives of Samsung did not hurt willingly talk about the new processors – that is to say, “Yes, we have made new chips for smart phones of the middle class, and their potential for looking into benchmarks, and now let’s talk about the design A-series ».
And, perhaps, rightly so, because there is nothing of a breakthrough in the new processors do not have – 28 nm core Cortex-A53, DDR3, here is the official specification. Accelerator in both Mali-T720, but it is different whether its frequency or the number of cores between the Exynos 7578 and 7580, the company chose not to explain.
Samsung built its slightly more powerful alternative Snapdragon 410/615
In short, Samsung has created specifically replacing Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 and 615, which were previously used in the Galaxy A5 and A7. MediaTek Koreans, for whatever reason, can not stand, and avoid to put his chips in its Galaxy in all possible ways.
four core processor in Galaxy A3 is located exactly between the vosmiyadernikom Kirin 620 available models of Huawei and arch-rival , Snapdragon 410, with graphics on the (game) Go Large parts of both. Still RAM Samsung is not greedy for young smartphone – without any running application system with proprietary shell “eats” 850 MB of the 1,500 available. Freeing up resources for something powerful Android can, but makes it equally sluggish, sleepy porter carries groceries in the morning.
The Galaxy A5 system even more gluttonous and uses 1.1 GB of the two available, but the CPU is fairly bad “removes” all kinds of everyday stress. In the game with maximum detail to hope it is not necessary, but the play succeed in everything, and switch between games and browser will not processor tragedy.
Software
In fashion Galaxy all the “grown-up “and even better located on top of Android 5.1.1 actual version samsungovskoy shell TouchWiz, the list of standard applications inexplicably appeared FM-radio, and the majority of the” chips “of the more expensive smartphones (voice assistant S Voice, gesture support, NFC, and in “A fifth” and monitoring of physical activity S Health) present here.
The system interface in Samsung Galaxy A3 and A5 (2016)
Microsoft “he brought the coin,” the Koreans, so the A-series is preinstalled undeletable Office suite and Skype, but Kaspersky greedy, so to impose Internet Security can be removed before it starts to eat the already limited system resources.
Typical Android Lollipop «sauce» Samsung. Some applications of the flagship S-line migrated and models available
To complain not much to see – all the necessary software available, get used to the system would be easy even for a beginner.
Camera
Home “attribute of luxury” in the chambers of the new A-Class – instant execution by double-pressing the “House”. The rest of the PV modules stars from heaven, not grabbed and photographed at the level of good-quality middle-class competitors. In cloudy weather, the camera starts just to make noise in HDR mode to save a photo takes less 1.5-2 seconds (due to the modest processing power).
Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) – rear camera
Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) – rear camera
From pleasant – “intelligence” AF when shooting photos at any time, voice control (photo can be done by the command “shoot”, “take a picture”, etc., and video camera will record after “video recording”) and “professional” mode with adjustable exposure, ISO, and white balance – there is no special necessary, but let it be.
Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) – facing camera
Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) – Front Camera
It’s nice, and how the camera behave at night – not even the youngest A3 “drops” the frame rate when shooting video in the dark, and a special ” night mode “when shooting a photo really works and allows the camera to see a little better. And yet, the devaluation of the index with the change of generations did not happen: If processing power current A5 exceeds discontinued by the A7, the advantage in taking stills remains still for “a-seventh” of the past generation.
The cameras do not cause delight, but not disappointing. And the optical stabilization Galaxy A5 looks a gesture of goodwill on the part of Samsung
The Galaxy A5 and A7 motorways Samsung is not greedy and equipped the camera optical image stabilization – even everyday as a video, this function smoothes motion in the picture and allows you to shoot at the course is quite watchable movies. And when taking photos all the same to stabilize further insure the owner of blurred images due to hand trembling. Self-cameras in smartphones do not disappoint – the picture quality are comparable with rear cameras other budget smartphones cost 7-10 thousand rubles.
Endurance
Endurance smartphones A-Series stems from their flaws – processors are our heroes are weak, so as not to become a cause of “Jora” battery, cost themselves AMOLED-matrix in this case does not burdened with extremely high resolutions, and even “a-third” in the hand plays a modest area of the display.
