Great Phone For Price Point
The phone's performance is very descent in everyday tasks and things like Facebook, instagram, and that kind of stuff . However when it comes to gaming , meh . To be honest , it was a bummer for me , it coupdnt handle 3D games , even simple ones by OVILEX without having to decrease the graphics quality, and it still wouldn't run the game higher than 15 FPS . Other wise , I was very surprised with the camera and the screen quality , especially that I paid $200 for this phone . The loud speaker is just about descent , not the loudest nor the clearest , but I only listen to music on my Bluetooth headphones . speaking of connectivity, the Wi-Fi connection totally surprised. my previous phone , a galaxy grand, would lose connection to my router when I stand at my room's door . now , my phone detects Wi-Fi all around the house , even with the same router and in the same place . That was my review of the phone I am currently writing this with , by the way , even if it's Gorilla Glass 4 , definitely put a case on the phone , I put a simple clear back cover , since it adds both grip and protection! Well, That concludes my review of the Galaxy A3 2016 , Thank you for reading, and I will see you in the next review.
