The late things to dance out of Samsung ’s hyperactive R&D department are the A5 and A3 , a duo of all - metal , crack - slender phones place at teenagers . However , they ’re also “ optimized for social networking ” and sport a “ 5MP Camera For Unmatched Selfies ” , which probably mean that they ’ll be terrible .
On the face of it , the A5 and A3 actually look enough : all - metal expression , decently thin ( 6.7 and 6.9 mm , severally ) , and eyeglasses that are somewhat safe , without being unnecessarily over - the - top : 5 - inch 720p CRT screen for the A5 , 4.5 - in qHD for the A3 , with a 1.2GHz central processor and 4 G sport in both . Hopefully , that should all make for speedy guts , with a low pricetag attached . On hardware terms , they might actually give the Nexus 5 a run for its money , and if they ’re cheap enough , perchance usurp the Moto G as the cheap phone king .
Unfortunately , almost every phone marketed as being ‘ optimised for social mass medium ’ or aimed specifically at teenagers has been an abject loser : remember theHTC First , or theMicrosoft Kin ? No ? There ’s a reason for that : social media is great in very minor doses , but not when it wholly dominates your smartphone .

If that was n’t enough reason to forfend Samsung ’s latest offering , there ’s also the fact that they send with a consecrated selfie camera , and multiple selfie manner . Oh hell no .
Either manner , the press release only mentions a launch in ‘ select market ’ , start with China , which means that the A5 and A3 may well never see the light of day in the US of A. Whether that ’s a blessing or a tragedy you ’ll have to decide for yourself . [ SamsungviaEngadget ]
