Critic consensus
“Display lovers will not get around the Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) if they are looking for a suitable device in the mid-range price segment.”
“In the end, the Galaxy A7 (2018) has a lot going for it, and we're talking smartphone pillars here - display, battery and camera. However, it's handicapped in key areas that make it hard to wholeheartedly recommend. Especially when the pillars above are covered similarly well by the competition.”
“If you’re looking for a budget device with gorgeous display, it’s hard to go wrong with the A7. Software is still something of a mixed bag compared to stock Android, and it would have been nice to see support for USB-C or wireless charging, but the triple-lens camera and respectable price point make it hard to turn down.”
“Samsung continues to experiment with the Galaxy A7. It's a well-balanced smartphone with a camera you can get creative with. Additionally, it gets a new svelte flat-glass design, brilliant display and an impressive battery backup. At its asking price, the Galaxy A7 is a highly-competitive device that can only be challenged when it comes to sheer performance.”
