    See other variants reviews Score: 72.8 / 100

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) is an incredibly powerful phone released in 2015, having a high speed Octa-Core processor running at 1.6 gigahertz, a 5.5-inches display, a 13 MP back-facing camera and a 5 MP front-facing camera.

Samsung sells this device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 8939 system chip, backed up by a great Octa-Core processor speeding at 1600 megahertz with a big 3 GB RAM. This cellphone has anice 16 GB internal memory and an SD memory card expansion slot, which allows you to install hundreds of applications without worrying about space.

Although this phone only has 5.96 inches long, it's still able to fit a a 5.5" screen. This phone is thin, being just 0.29 inches thick. This cellphone is offerred in lots of color options: black, gold, pink and white. This cellphone is much lighter than what you would expect from a device like this.

This phone features two cameras, a 13 MP back side camera and a 5 MP front side camera. This phone can also capture 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 frames per second.

Samsung designed the A7 (2016) with a high-tech 5.5 inches display, and a resolution of 1080 x 1920 (Full HD), providing this cellphone with a great image quality.

This cellphone provides WiFi capability (which it can provide to other devices as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A (4G) ultra fast connectivity and the fastest 3G data connection, over HSPA technologies. The A7 (2016) works with a Nano SIM card for GSM connection.

The A7 (2016) features a 3300 mAh massive non-removable battery providing this cellphone an incredible battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that this cellphone's battery is not removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts losing capacity, even though having 3300 mAh you will probably replace this device before that becomes an issue.

This phone also comes with plenty of great features such as Fingerprint ID, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your phone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

It doesn't matter whether you need this phone for work, want a social phone, are a photography fan or are looking for a gaming cellphone, this cellphone is definitely a very good choice for you.
