About Samsung Galaxy A5 2017
The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 presents a compact yet capable Android experience, centered around a 5.2-inch AM-OLED display that delivers vibrant colors and deep blacks at Full HD resolution. Its 1080x1920 pixel count ensures sharp text and media, while the screen technology promises good contrast and viewing angles for everyday use.
Under the hood, the phone runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box, paired with 3GB of RAM to handle multitasking and daily apps. Power comes from a 3000 mAh battery, housed within a slim 7.9mm chassis that keeps the weight down to 159 grams. The design remains practical, with a single SIM slot and dimensions of 71.4 x 146.1 mm, making it easy to grip and carry.
This variant is tailored specifically for the South Korean market, running a localized version of the operating system optimized for Korean users. Unlike the SM-A520F, SM-A520L, and SM-A520K variants, it is identified by the model number SM-A520S. It also differs from the SM-A520F/DS by supporting only a single SIM, rather than dual SIM functionality.
