Since the Note 7 debacle, Samsung has been facing a really hard time in regaining the trust of its customers. Their profits are plunging to an all-time low, sales have been hit drastically and whatnot. To turn things around, they are gearing up to launch the Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017).
Specifications of Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017 edition)
Let us have a brief look at the specification of the Samsung Galaxy A7.
- First of all, it is going to sport a full Full HD display. The size is not clear as there are two separate leaks. One leak suggests that the screen size will be 5.5-inches while the other one suggests that it will be 5.7-inches.
- It will be powered by an octa-core Exynos 7870 clocked at 1.8 GHz and paired with Mali T830 graphic processor.
- On the camera front, it will offer 16 MP lenses on both the sides.
- Storage is another confusing area where different leaks are giving different suggestions. Some suggest it will come with 3 GB RAM + 64 GB ROM combo, while other suggests that a 4 GB variant will be launched which will be limited to China whereas the international variant will offer 3 GB RAM with 32/128 ROM options.
- The phone will run on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow with TouchWiz out of the box. Shortly after the launch, the Android 7.0 Nougat update will be rolled out.
