In recent years, Samsung accustomed to low quality of their smartphones. Regardless of whether it was a device with a low shelf, or flagship model, we could be sure of one – plastic, poor quality housing. The introduction to the market in the second half of 2014 years Alpha series had to change it. Metal Receivers, better quality plastic, abandonment oval shape, reminiscent of a soap dish, was to introduce a new quality.
The Samsung Galaxy przecierającego trails Alpha quickly joined by three models – Galaxy A3, A5 and A7. Going sequentially indications are devices with a lower, middle and upper shelf. In my hands hit the middle, or Galaxy A5. Smartphone introduces a new quality part of the mid-range models, or 64-bit processor Snapdragon 410, 306 Andreno graphics and 2GB of RAM. This is definitely a surplus, compared with the current standard in the form of a Snapdragon 400 and 1 GB of RAM.
I was very curious what will show new models of Samsung. By far the most waited for “palpation” and check the performance of the housing components. How was? Let’s see.
Set
The phone came to me wrapped in a small blue box with a nice wkomponowanym marking A5. The packaging is so small that the courier receiving the shipment was surprised, said: “This is me post it on the 4th floor discovered an ?!”. In the box next to the phone, there is a place for white accessories – USB cable, AC adapter, and intrathecal headphones with a set of interchangeable rubber bands. To the package instructions and the key to open the SIM card slots and memory card.
Case
Alpha Series, which includes the Samsung Galaxy A5, a kind of revolution in smartphones by Samsung, but also a return to the past. At the end of the metal casing is nothing new in the devices of the Korean manufacturer. In order not to go too far memory, it is sufficient to mention just the Samsung Wave in each of the three views – S8500, S8530 and S8600, and the model i8510. Each of them had a perfectly made, metal housing. In the case of the A5, but the metal is only your body, it is easy to get the impression that we keep in the hands of high-end device. Sam appearance immediately brings to mind, perhaps the most recognized of the series Galaxy, Galaxy S2 model. We have here a clear departure from the “soap dishes” which began with the emergence of the market model of the Galaxy S III.
Front phone cover sheet of glass, the surface of which is slightly lower than the surrounding edges. Theoretically, this should improve the resistance to falls. At the top there is a longitudinal speaker talks, below an inscription Samsung, and went to the right camera for video calls and a proximity sensor. At the bottom, traditionally, there are two touch buttons – back and call the list of applications and hardware Home button. Not quite fit me to a solution, because the hardware button a long time I did not have to deal with, and much faster and easier it would be if Home was also a touch button (although as the wybudzający phone it has its pluses). The sides of the phone are black metal and have a matte surface, while the edges with silver glitter and are also made of metal. On the right side of the phone there is a place for the screen lock button and drawers nanosim card and memory card. In turn, the left hit the volume buttons. At the bottom edge is a micro USB connector and 3.5mm. Back of the phone is flat and made of plastic. Can be found on the centrally positioned and protruding above the surface of the camera housing, and on the sides of the LED and the external speaker. The camera during the tests showed no tendency to collect scratches, despite fairly strong output above the surface of the housing.
