Samsung Galaxy A7 2018: Pros & Cons

7.9

out of 10

Pros

The Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) offers a great AMOLED screen with vibrant colors and good outdoor legibility. Its battery life is also pretty great. Its rear triple camera setup is quite versatile. This is also one of the most affordable devices to offer an ultra wide angle lens at the back.

Cons

Unfortunately, the actual performance of the rear triple-camera is underwhelming because of how inconsistent the results are from each lens. Low-light performance is also quite poor. The phone also misses out on 4K video recording. Furthermore, the device features a micro USB port that lacks support for fast charging. The CPU performance is also lacking.

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) is the Korean giant's first attempt at a device loaded with three rear camera lenses. While these sensors do offer greater versatility, the overall performance is quite inconsistent. The CPU and graphical performance are also not up to the mark, especially when compared to more affordable offerings loaded with Snapdragon 660 chipsets. The nail in the coffin is the absence of fast charge. Unless you absolutely need the rear wide angle lens, you might be better off with one of the various other offerings at this price point.
