    Had this phone since it's release and it's still kicking, I recently replaced it with an A25 and honestly, for your average day to day task it's not bad at all, aside from it's battery being on the low side for me nowadays and some screen burn in's here and there, it's still a solid phone for average daily tasks.

          I never understood the point of this phone. On release, this was about 25-30% more expensive than the a5 2017 and the only differences are what exactly? A bigger screen and battery (which is only there to match the increased consumption due to the screen increase). The A7 2015 atleast boasted a significant cpu&gpu upgrade, better resolution and much faster internal storage speeds

            SomeBearElse, 10 Dec 2022Omg, this is the phone my teacher uses... It's so outrageously laggy 💀💀💀Yeah I own one, it's lagging out of the box omg - it's worse than my A3 2016. Maybe it has to do with the screen resolution and newer Android version since the last time I sell my A3 2016.
            My friend buy this phone from me after I use it like 6-7 month and he say his wife and daughter still use it. Although the performance is not what I expected, but I'd say after my friend says he still have this phone and still working, the build quality is no joke. And it has NFC, the one feature I needed the most at that time.

                                A7 is the best mobile I have ever used. Classy look, superamoled screen, alluminioum side frame. Supports quick charge, camera phn back n front are excellent as if it's a 108mp. Secure folder to lock secret pics n apps. NFC, good sensors, finger print security works well. After 5 fives it's hanging due to excessive apps. Battery comes for a day still. This model has to be brought with same look and size can be increased to 6.7inch n battrrybro 6000amps n good camera front n rear will make it a classy high segment mobile.

                                  It would be better if samsung atleast updated this phone to android 9... I mean the hardware of this phone can hold android 9 and its also funny that the galaxy J4, a phone with an inferior hardware runs ön android 10

                                      I wish SAMSUNG could have this with the same model (Galaxy A7 "2022"), expanded specs and home button key remains.

                                        I am hoping to have an updated model almost same with A7 (2017) and still have the "Home Button Key". All new Samsung released was full screen. :(
