I work at samsung and we just had the A5 briefing. I have held it in my own hands and I can tell u it's amazing. It has the premium feel and alot of features from the s7. 3d glass on the back with HQamoled and metal surroundings. It basically s7 dna. 16mp camera with f1, 9 both on the back and the front. The reason why it has alot of s7 features is because the s7 will be replaced by the s8 in the near future. And I'm telling u, the s8 will be something out of this world

...damn I really miss the Galaxy S2's design..

Take a S series phone
remove the heartrate sensor
voila, there you have your A series

Ohh, so no comments saying it looks like an iPhone? Jolly fun, it's a good day in the Android side of things.

I love the new iPhone 8....only apple could do something as crazy as having a headphone jack in 2017!!

android authority how did you get renders of a phone that comes out in 2107.

[TectrixGamingZension]

Not a fan. Still love my S6 Edge been rocking this phone for almost 2 years and still runs like a champ <3

[mariusbogdan]

[SlimeyCraft]

finally a usb-c is taking over samsung as well

[lucaszollner]

so it seems the earpiece is the new speaker, but sadly no stereo. they went to usb c and made the back round. but what is the opening over the power button on the side?

[itzwillow]

nothing beats the note 7, it is the phone of the year for me no matter the fire issue

[Max-ejvf]

Wouldnt doubt if this is really what it looks like, A series hasnt changed much for better or for worse design wise

[dommorris]

probably one of the prettiest phones ive seen. The camera is no where near as ugly as the other Samsung phones.

[FranciscoMartinez-lxup]

I've never seen an iPhone like this

[swagpig]

is that a front facing speaker I see because there is none on the bottom?

[FlintG]

At least samsung is not getting rid of the headphone jack.
