Samsung Galaxy A7 2016

 

Build and Display

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) showcases an attractive design, much like what you’d ordinarily expect from a device from its Korean maker. It features a svelte profile at a thickness of only 7.3 millimetres, but it tips the scale at a rather high 172 grams.

The new Samsung Galaxy A7 crams in a 5.5-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD (1080p) resolution and a pixel density of approximately 401 ppi for awesome viewing experience. Samsung offers you four colours to choose from, including black, white, gold and pink (or rose gold).

Camera and Storage

On the camera front, Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) packs a 13-megapixel main camera and a 5-megapixel selfie snapper, both of which have an aperture size of F1.9. In addition to the usual features, the main shooter now boasts optical image stabilisation (OIS) – a feature you’d ordinarily expect to see on high-end smartphones.
