Just a little above the Samsung Galaxy J3 and more or less mid-range smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy J7 has a more improved spec sheet an offers more than what just meets the eye. Entering has one of the latest in the J-series, it maintains the traditional Samsung design with physical home button and the 16:9 build that is gradually being left out in recent times.  In the real sense, there is nothing bad in ‘a little glance into the past’ build provided the internals are up to date with the competition.

Design and Display

As state before, the Samsung Galaxy J7 (2018) looks more like the design outlook Samsung started out with and that includes the navigation buttons that are now replaced by on-screen ones in their more high-end smartphones.

It looks more like the Samsung Galaxy S7 with the home button doubling as the fingerprint scanner. You’ll find that Samsung is written on both the front and the back of the smartphone a little overboard for me.

Unlike the Samsung Galaxy J3, the smartphone carries the AMOLED screen type as seen in the premium models but with a much lesser resolution. That said, the resolution is set at 1280 x 720 pixels and a size of 5.5-inch. is a decent offering for a Samsung mid-range phone.

Battery and Camera

A little above the average power seen in most of this level of smartphones is what the Samsung Galaxy J7 (2018) comes with and should just be about enough to get the smartphone through the day. Powered by a 3, 300mAh non-removable battery, the smartphone still makes use of the MicroUSB port for charging.
