Phone suggestions

[Merciix3]

Hi! I want to buy a new phone but I have a hard time choosing. I'm interested in one of the following: Samsung Galaxy A5 2017, J7 2017 and LG G5. I'm going the use the phone for games a lot so the battery is important.
Edit: Both LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy A5 are on a sale so the price is between 329 euro and 350 euro.

Dunno about the Galaxy A5 but the battery is awful on the LG G5. It's joint with the Galaxy s7 as the worst battery I've ever had in a phone. G5 is a great phone otherwise though.

P's the battery is swappable on the G5 too so at least you can always have a spare handy if need be

I had G4 and the battery was really bad. I had to change battery 2 times a day and sometimes not even those 2 wouldn't last. I heard that the battery consumption isn't as bad on the

i dont know about the galaxy a5 but I had the lg and it was far from impressive, didnt really feel like a "flagship" though at the lower price maybe its a decent choice

Between A5 and G5, G5 is a better option Personally, A7 is a better bet than G5 because from what I've seen, LG's G series has heating issues. a friend just lost his G4 to the same issue. and this happened just 2 weeks ago. other than that, G series is one of the best phones for mid-high end mobile gaming.

I use A5 now, and I would say this phone is a good choice! (I didn't have a chance to try LG). Fast and does the job, though battery lasts not as long as I would want it

Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 has excellent battery life. Drawbacks of Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 are there is no notification LED and camera has no OIS.

LG G5 has a known bootloop issue.
