Looks good for this handset at the moment. Nice size and specs for the cash. Comes in 4 different colours. Showing as free "Free Next working Day delivery" which is also a bonus.
Also the Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 model is £163 in the same colours, but I felt for the spec/price difference the A5 was a better choice. Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 £163

Voted hot but I'd rather a xiaomi 4 prime from ebay for same price

Prime is 50 cheaper than this, how these guys continue to shift phones is beyond me

Super hot price for this particular phone. Great screen, decent camera, fast and looks good.

Whats better between the Samsung A5 and Samsung J5. Trying to decide between these 2 models as they are very similar in price.
mobilephonesdirect are doing the J5 for £174.99 sim free.

Can't fault the price. Have bought the A5 with a protective cover on the same website for £5
Flubit it against Amazon and get it for £155 as I did. The J5 that is.

Does anyone know if these phones are unlocked from Samsung so they will take any network simcards in them? I can't seem to find any info on the website?

Yes, because they don't sell you any sim card with the phone
