Back in early 2015, Samsung launched its Galaxy A5 and A7
handsets in India. Seeing both the devices being positively received, the
company released the 2016 versions of the handsets in the country as well.
However, it's worth noting that it shied away from announcing the Galaxy A3 for
the Indian market.
Earlier this year, the company unveiled the 2017 versions of
the three aforementioned handsets, and now it has announced their Indian launch
as well. Similar to its predecessors, the Galaxy A3 won't be officially
available in the country.
Both the handsets are IP68-certified, which means that they
are resistant to dust and water. Additionally, Samsung has also touted the
devices' metallic frames and "3D glass". The company has emphasized
on the imaging aspects of the smartphones as well, by packing in 16MP rear and
front cameras. The full specifications of the devices are as follows:
