It immediately becomes obvious that everything is different about Samsung's Galaxy A5 the first time it's picked up: a unibody metal casing, restrained design, non-removable back cover . Samsung wants to improve quality, particularly since customers have...

Last year, Samsung announced the Galaxy Alpha, the first high-end smartphone in their range with a part-metal body. The handset was a good, yet flawed step forward for the company, failing to live up to its premium price tag from a hardware and battery li...

Excellent build quality. Great display and camera. Snapdragon 410 is a modest, powerful enough upgrade.
![Bad](/static/images/reviews-bad.png)
This midrange handset is at least $100 too expensive. No Android 5.0 upgrade just yet.
