Since I do not prefer the Motorola or the Nexus, my opinion for Galaxy A6 (2016) is one of the best mid-range phone now. Build quality is elegant and feel a lot like the Galaxy S6. Excellent 5.2 "Super AMOLED display (there is no difference between QHD and FHD). Battery life extraordinary (6 + h Screen on time easy), Performance and TouchWiz UI is more elegant, more beautiful and better-optimized than previous versions.
For the price of $ 300 I think it's a great deal.
