Samsung e5 & e7 is support 4g or not?
E5 and E7 support 3G.
in A5 and A7, the only feature they added is dual sim. and kept the price same as single sim. the weight is also cut by half, i wonder if thats good or bad in build quality terms. E5 and E7 are watred down version,s just not worth . any users for A5 or A7… pls give feedback.
To be frank I have used xiaomi n Huawei n lenovo phones although they offer more bang for buck, their quality cannot be compared to Samsung phones. Samsung offers best quality components more durability and better display to be honest. Samsung is global leader of smartphone and its for a reason.
for 23 k ,you can get lg g2 or nexus 5 or samsung s4 on snapdeal .the last years flagship phone s.
Covering old phone with metals to sell people. Still people buy it.
People have been spoiled by budget phones from moto xiaomi asus. So many want bang for buck devices. But understand all of the products they sell are only online .Samsung sell its products offline also. Samsung has the best brand value so people will buy it even though they are costly.
People are not spoiled, they are aware now. No ullu banaawing….. RIP samsung & it’s mindless pricing habits.
samsung is on the road map of nokia. continues decline in sales.
RIP SAMSUNG
There was an old detergent powder advertisement on doordarshan where Deepika from the famous tv serial Ramayana says that, “wohi safedi, wohi jhaag agar kam daam me mile, toh koi yeh kyun le?” Well samsung listen, xiaomi, and other brands are here with same specs and very very kam daam me mile, toh koi yeh kyun le?
well said 😛
I think, samsung have the best business managers. They launch it overpriced. After samsung lovers (and some dumb people) buy it. They cut the price drastically to attain more customers.
100%……..true.
Samsung…Please hire some young and crazy people in ur design dept…Atleast change the design and charge a premium….otherwise it will just be news…
Too expensive 11k to 17k is OK
Can’t see price 20k to 25k to these mobiles
