Part 2. What Are the Attractive Points of A9?

According to the features of these three smartphones, which point will make you tend to buy one of them? Actually, there is no doubt that A9 is better than the other two in most parts but how does it become valuable? Three points are concluded here:

  • As for the design and the display, the size of the screen may be the decisive aspect for the customers to purchase since there are no any obvious differences among them. Moreover, the colors of Galaxy A9 are distinguished from the other two kinds and they are not so common.
  • On the other hand, one more wonderful is its memory. The internal memory is up to 32G which is double of the others. And it has 3GB RAM so that the operation is swifter in some extents.
  • Battery is a really significant factor for the users to get a mobile, no matter iOS devices or Android phones. Even though the battery capacity of A7 is larger than A5 in 2016 version, the progress is just slight while Galaxy A9's battery capacity has grown by 1000 mAh, compared with A7.
