Submitted by MegaFon for the price of 1990 rubles. Most recently, the operator introduced the "improved version" of this device - ZTE Blade A5 at a similar price. What is the difference between the novelties - we will try to figure out together in this article.
As we wrote earlier, the younger version of the ZTE Blade with the A3 index was built on the basis of the SPRADTRUM SC7715 SC7715 clock frequency 1 GHz. Let's say honestly this modelWhat is called, "failed". At the time of the start of sales, the Cost of Blade A3 was 2990 rubles, now it fell to 1990 rubles, while the phone managed to earn a whole mass of negative user reviews. By purchasing ZTE Blade A3, most buyers were calculated that in addition to the "simplest dialer", they will be able to fully use all the advantages of the smartphone functional and operating system Android. However, in practice, due to the hardware restrictions (suggestion, the budget 1 GHz is a single-core processor and only 512 MB of memory) made comfort from using Blade A3 practically no. The phone was loaded quite a long time, after the desktop appears, it was necessary to wait a couple more minutes while the contents of the screen could be made any action (for example, scroll into another desktop), the application start time also left to be desired, and when trying to run Several applications simultaneously, especially when using applications running in the background, use the device almost impossible. "Brakes" (freezes) were noticeable to the naked eye, and of course annoyed. In its own, we recommended purchasing Blade A3 only for use in direct appointment, i.e. As the phone or the simplest "dialer", or (as a maximum, in addition to these functions) of periodic email check.
And right, just recently, a new model from the ZTE Blade line - ZTE Blade A5 has appeared in the sales offices. New model It is very similar to the previous, even outwardly, however, there are a number of technical differences. To compare the ZTE Blade A3 and ZTE Blade A5, the easiest way will appeal to the comparison table technical characteristicswhich we also give below:

As can be seen from the above table "Global Changes" only SOC on the basis of which the device was built, in the case of ZTE Blade A5 - the device has a more modern model Spreadtrum "SC7731 ox chip, with a clock frequency of 1.2 GHz. I must say that hardware solutions from Spreadtrum for all "a little in new", in the case of MediaTek and Qualcomm database - more or less transparent. In order to understand what productivity has the device, it is enough to enter the name SOC on the basis of which it is built in search, find Similar devices and look at user reviews and performance test results. In the case of SPRADTRUM, this approach does not work at all, because devices at its base in Russia are still very limited. As for the ZTE Blade A5, then its nearest analogues In terms of the installed chip, it is Beeline about 3 and Fly IQ4505, if you take not smartphones, and the tablets are SUPRA M74DG.
If you compare the performance of SC7731 with MediaTek chips, then the closest analogue here will be MT6582M. However, according to the results of synthetic tests, as well as tests of SC7731 graphics, unfortunately, shows smaller results. Those, for example, playing on the phone with SC7731 will be worse than on a similar device with MT6582M (less productivity, fewer FPS, the possible presence of "friezes" and graphic artifacts in games using graphic features platforms at the maximum).
Externally, the Blade A5 is nothing special, the smartphone is made in a standard monoblock form factor and is available in black (black) and white (White) color versions. We, as you have already noticed, got exactly the black option for testing. On the front panel, the already familiar to us visually on other models from ZTE, control buttons - a circle and two points. Here ZTE moved from the standard for Android graphic scheme in which the buttons are a triangle, a circle and square. Partly, probably, because such graphic designations are more characteristic of Android 5.0 (Lollipop), and in Blade A5 installed Android 4.4 (Kitakat). In any case, the same location and color coloring of the control elements is characteristic of ZTE smartphones, which to some extent makes them recognizable on these features. Also, on the front panel of the smartphone there is a conversational speaker and a front camera.
A pleasant surprise awaits us on the back cover of the body and looking at the photo, you will understand what I mean:
The coating, or rather the material from which it is made on the touch resembles the skin and is quite pleasant in the hand. If you ever kept in your hands Samsung Galaxy Note III, then the sensation is about similar.
On the right on the housing there is a volume swing and power button, on top - connector for connecting headphones and microUSB cable / charger:
Otherwise, everything is quite standard.
Above, we paid a long time to describe the productivity of ZTE Blade A5, especially in comparison with other devices (as you probably understood if we consider the choice of BLADE A3 and Blade A5, especially considering the fact that this moment They are the same, the problem of choice is not even worth it - the Blade A3 does not cost it, it is easier to take Blade A5 almost under the same conditions and not to experience discomfort from insufficient performance of the device), however, without bringing screenshots, including various synthetic tests of our mini "The review would be incomplete:
 |  |  |
 |  |  |
 |  |  |
What do we see here? The default ZTE BLADE A5 has a desired kit. preset applications (True not all applications that you see on screenshots are installed on the manufacturer, for example, the game Dead Trigger 2 We have installed themselves, for the sake of checking the performance of the smartphone in games), which will be enough for the first time to use the smartphone "from the box". Here and mobile antivirus Avast., and customers of various social networks, and browser Google Chrome. - In general, everything that should be. By the way, having a negative experience of communication with the younger model (Blade A3) we expected something similar from ZTE Blade A5. However, fortunately our fears were not confirmed, switching between applications screens occurs quite smoothly for SC7731, no essential brakes, etc. We did not notice. As can be seen, by default, approximately 2.23 GB of free space is given to the user data section (the amount of free memory is displayed in the "Available" column after installing some updates of the preset applications and installations of new). Much this or little depends on your script for using the device (to install a plurality of games or storage of a large photo archive or phonothek, naturally, little, for web surfing, communication in social networks etc. tasks - quite nothing), as can be seen from the results of Antutu Benchmark - ZTE Blade A5 in this test scored 16366 points, this result allows you to play on this device in toys like dead trigger 2, etc., but how we have already noted similar to MediaTek chips possess better performance (At the same time, they also belong to the budget segment), so we cannot consider the device as "game".
Like the younger version, ZTE Blade A5, which is sold in the communication salons MegaFon is designed for use with SIM cards Only this operator. When you try to insert a symkart in it, different from the megaphone, a network unlock code request will appear on the screen - "PIN network unlock for SIM1" (without its input, the third-party sim card does not work in the smartphone). When entering the correct code, the smartphone network is unlocked and it will work with any SIM on an ongoing basis. One way to get a network unlock code for ZTE Blade A5 is its order on our trading platform:
Brief conclusions, or as a summary: The ZTE Blade A5 smartphone is definitely better than the previous model in the BLADE A3 and performance in synthetic tests is quite close to the devices built on the basis of MediaTek MT6582M. However, with real use (that is, games, resource-intensive applications, navigation software, etc.), the smartphone can be called a "compromise solution", in comparison with its counterparts based on MediaTek. Because If you take similar devices with MediaTek "Aries processor on board, everything will be" slightly worse "than on MediaTek. In some applications that do not use the possibilities of the graphical subsystem to the maximum, these differences will be almost unnoticed, however, in modern 3D games and T .P. (if it is generally advisable to consider their consideration on the devices belonging to the beginning of the budget segment, i.e. on "starting models", positioning as "your first smartphone") these flaws can be critical. The same applies to all other aspects. Using the apparatus. By purchasing ZTE Blade A5, it is not worthwhile from it "supraces", this is a common "budget", which is somewhere "in the middle", i.e. a little better than some models of the budget series, but knowingly worse than the MTK analogs.
