The latest model still beat its ancestor, 2016 Galaxy A5, which blinked off after 9 hours and 55 minutes.

The recharging time of these handsets was also assessed utilizing a stock wall charger. They begin at zero percent until they reach a completely recharged battery. The Galaxy A5 (2017) performed great again achieving 100 percent battery life just for 1 hour and 31 minutes same with the Galaxy S7.
