Currently, both phones only come in Black Sky and Gold Sand – hardly the colours you’d associate with the most romantic day of the year, aye? Well, you’ll be chuffed to know that Samsung will be issuing both the A5 and A7 in a pretty shade of pastel hued shade of Peach Cloud for Valentine’s Day. If pastel pink isn’t your thing, they’re also issuing it in a shade of metallic blue they’ve dubbed as ‘Blue Mist’.

The refresh has seen both phones packing improved 16-MP cameras with an F/1.9 aperture on the front and rear, Exynos 7680 1.9GHz octacore processors, 3GB RAM and 32GB of expandable storage with the ability to support up to 256GB cards. Where both the A5 and A7 differ is merely on the size of their Super AMOLED displays with the former coming with a 5.2-inch1080P display and the latter with a 5.7-inch 1080P display. On top of improved hardware, both the A5 and A7 come with the IP68 rated water resistance out of box, allowing it to survive a short dip in water or a shower if needs must. Both phones also come with aesthetic styling culled from their flagship S7 line so you get curves and a glass back along with their distinctive lozenge-shaped front home button. As an added bonus, the button also doubles as a fingerprint reader though one that has Samsung Pay support, allowing you access to Samsung’s new-gen payment system that is being rolled out nationwide.
