Samsung galaxy a5 2017, prices and rates with movistar, orange and vodafone

The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 is one of the most interesting mobiles in the mid / upper-middle range. The Korean company has raised the bar for its A-series with a new design and features. At this point, one of the best cameras on the market stands out, embedded in an affordable phone.

Now we have a better finished mobile, with premium design and very interesting technical characteristics for 410 euros. However, it is very likely that in the operators we can get it cheaper. So, to check it out, let's compare the prices of the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 in Movistar, Orange and Vodafone.

Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 at Movistar

If you are Movistar clients or you thought you were, you are in luck. And it is that Movistar has the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 on a special offer. We can get the terminal with a price of 340 euros, which is a discount of 70 euros on its official price.

If we prefer to pay it in installments, the cost will be 15.72 euros per month for 24 months. Of course, as we have already commented many times, we must bear in mind that Movistar finances with interest. That is, the final price of the terminal will be 377.32 euros. Still, it is still below its normal price. We will also have it available in two colors: gold and blue.

Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 on Vodafone

The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 at Vodafone also has an attractive price of 336 euros. If we want to pay it in installments, the fee will depend on the rate we have. With Red M, as you can see in the image, the cost is 14 euros per month for 24 months. However, with this option we will not have a down payment.

If we have a cheaper rate, we may have to make an initial payment, although the monthly payment would go down. For example, with the Smart S rate we would pay 75 euros at the beginning and a fee of 11 euros per month.

In any of these options we will receive some advantages. On the one hand, if we are new clients, we will get a 20% discount on the rate for 6 months. On the other hand, we will enter the raffle for 300 Amazon gift vouchers. And the last gift, we will get a 2 × 1 in movie tickets.

Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 in Orange

The French company usually has very attractive terminal prices when they are financed. However, the same does not happen in free models. The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 in Orange is priced at 429 euros.

However, if we are or are going to be Orange customers, we can get it at a good price. If we are already clients we can execute the renewal plan and the Galaxy A5 2017 will cost us 9.95 euros per month for 24 months. That is, we will pay 238.8 euros for the terminal.

If we want to become customers at the same time we buy the Galaxy A5 2017, we will pay 12.95 euros per month for 24 months. That is, the final price that we will pay for the mobile will be 310.8 euros.

What does the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 offer us?

As you have seen, this is a terminal with a fairly accessible price. But what can we expect from the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017? Let's review its characteristics.

The first thing that stands out is its design. Samsung has decided to provide the new Galaxy A5 2017 with a design very similar to that of the Samsung Galaxy S7. Thus, it has a shiny glass finish, both on the front and on the back. The back is completely smooth and only the camera lens stands out, which is completely flush with the housing.

But best of all, the entire Galaxy A range now includes IP68 certification. That is, it is resistant to water and dust. Of course, the fingerprint reader, located under the Home button, is not missing.

At a technical level, it incorporates a 5.2-inch Super AMOLED panel with Full HD resolution. Inside it includes a processor with eight cores at 1.9 GHz. Accompanying this chip we have 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. This capacity can be expanded by microSD card.

As for the battery, it has a capacity of 3,000 milliamps. It's a good capability, and as we saw in our in-depth review, the software is perfectly optimized. This achieves a surprising autonomy, managing to reach a full day of use with only 50% of the battery.

Perhaps the only objectionable thing about this mobile is that it comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow as standard. Of course, we will have the possibility of updating to Android 7.0.

Another surprising thing about the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 is its photographic section. We have two cameras with a resolution of 16 megapixels. And we are not referring to a double sensor, but to that we have the same camera in the back as in the front.

In addition, the two lenses mark an aperture of f / 1.9, a value that provides a very good result in low light conditions. As usual, the main camera also has an autofocus system and an LED flash.

The quality of the photos taken reaches a level that has nothing to envy to high-end mobile cameras. As a weak point, we must emphasize that it does not have an image stabilizer (OIS), which can cause some photos to be blurred.

In short, a mid-range mobile that offers a premium design, a great technical section and one of the best selfie cameras on the market. What more could you want?
