Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) Price, Review and Specifications

Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 is the most affordable of upgraded A series portfolio. Compared to Galaxy A7 and Galaxy A5, Samsung is cutting a few corners here to accommodate a lower price-tag, and that is totally understandable. Let's discuss features and specifications. Samsung Galaxy A5 price online in India is not yet available.

The Samsung Galaxy A3 has a 5 Inch 720p HD display rocking the front surface of a slim (7.3mm) and light (132g) metal body handset. The Galaxy A3 2016 is powered by 1.5GHz quad-core Exynos processor and relies on 2300mAh battery to keep things running. Software is Android 5.1 Lollipop based TouchWiz, but at this stage of development, Android Marshmallow out of the box would have been better.



The 13MP rear and 5MP front camera as in other updates A series phones has made the cut, but there is no OIS or Fingerprint sensor on the Galaxy A3. Other features include 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth v 4.1, ANT+ support and NFC. How compelling Samsung Galaxy A3 turns out to be will be known only after Samsung Galaxy A3 India price is out. We will update you regarding lowest price of Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 in India once it is officially announced and available on retail shelves.

  • Sharp AMOLED display
  • 4G LTE
  • Slim and light-weight design
  • No Android Marshmallow

Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) Review

The Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016), as its gorgeous design and eye-catching display are its most alluring features. Indeed, Samsung has managed to build a device that looks and feels a lot like one of its flagships, despite being of a much lower class.

Behind this beautiful facade stands a typical mid-range phone – one that isn’t necessarily special in any way, one that has its imperfections, but also one that gets the job done without costing an arm and a leg. read more →

  • Beautifully designed for its class
  • Compact, easy to operate with one hand
  • Bright screen with great color accuracy (in Basic mode)
  • Good video quality
  • Main camera is slow to focus
  • Poor low-light performance from both cameras
  • Occasional lags and slowdowns
  • Still behind on software updates
