Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) deals and reviews

Recombu | Chris Barraclough

Samsung's Galaxy A3 2016 is essentially a mini Galaxy S6, boasting excellent battery life, strong optics and a great media experience, all wrapped up in a compact and gorgeous 4.7-inch package. If you want a mini mobile or simply can't afford Samsung's full-priced flagship phones, this Galaxy A3 refresh will definitely do the job.

It's expensive, but the tiny Galaxy A3 2016 beats every other mid-range smartphone when it comes to looks and battery life. While the OnePlus X is probably the phone you should be buying at this kind of price, the Galaxy A3 2016 is the one you'll want to have in your pocket.

If you're not really bothered by which version of Android you have and you've been desperately waiting for Samsung's next, true 'mini' phone, then you really can't get much better than the Galaxy A3 2016.

With the Galaxy A3, Samsung has given us a diminutive smartphone with flagship looks and build quality, a super screen, a capable camera and battery life that goes on and on. What it hasn't given us is the performance to match.

The performance is not outstanding, but it is adequate for the price.

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.
