Samsung Galaxy A7 2018 128GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
3.5/5
Verdict
While carrying the Galaxy A7 around, you will be asked about the phone quite a lot. Also, without a fail, every single person will ask you about the phone`s camera performance. The triple camera setup on the handset manages to grab eyeballs and the premium design adds to the appeal. The phone`s display is vibrant and the panel looks sharp. However, if we look at the competition, especially considering the starting price of Rs 23,990, there are heavyweights like the POCO F1 (review) and the ASUS Zenfone 5Z (review) available in the same price range. Even the Vivo V11 Pro (review) can be thrown ...

Even the Vivo V11 Pro (review) can be thrown into the mix. In comparison, Samsung`s offering falls short on performance. If you care about brand recognition and want the phone to have a novelty factor, the Galaxy A7 suits your bill. Otherwise, you might want to consider the other choices listed above.
Pros
- The wide-angle sensor does help
- Impressive display
- Good build quality
Cons
- Performance issues
- No USB Type-C port
Design and display
+
As we mentioned in our initial impressions, the Galaxy A7 has a very blocky feel to it. However, it does not feel too large in hands either. The glass sandwich design definitely adds a premium feel to the phone but that comes at the cost of the phone turning out to be a fingerprint magnet. The rear-facing triple camera setup is located on the top left in a vertical orientation, with an LED flash placed below. The power button, with an integrated fingerprint sensor, is located on the right spine of the smartphone, much like the one on the Galaxy J6+ (review) we reviewed recently. As was the case with the Galaxy J6+, the power button is not very tactile and you might take some time before you get used to of the placement.

The Galaxy A7 is the first phone from Samsung that features a triple camera setup at the back. Now, by all means, this is the clear USP of the handset and Samsung wants you to know that the three camera sensors are capable of clicking some seriously good shots. For the uninitiated, the rear-facing triple camera setup on the Galaxy A7 includes a 24MP primary sensor with f/1.7 aperture and PDAF support, a 5MP depth sensor with f/ 2.2 aperture, and an 8MP wide-angle sensor with f/2.4 aperture. Below this vertically-oriented camera module, there is an LED flash to assist the smartphone in poor lighting conditions.

Performance and software
+
The Galaxy A7 runs Android 8.0 Oreo-based Experience UI 9.0 out of the box and comes with the standard set of apps that you might have seen on other recent handsets from the company. You get Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Shopping, and Dailyhunt apart from the proprietary Samsung Mall, Samsung Max, and Samsung Pay mini apps. As we have seen in many Samsung phones before, there is a Game Launcher app that helps you manage notification and other phone settings to help you play games uninterrupted.

Battery life
+
For a smartphone that does not weigh too much, the Galaxy A7 packs in a rather sizeable 3,300mAh battery. In our HD video loop test, the handset dropped down from 100 percent battery level to 20 percent in around 14 hours. Even if we keep these test results aside, in daily usage, the Galaxy A7 managed to last a full day of use.
