Samsung’s super-slim Galaxy A7 prioritizes looks over power
Samsung has to deal not only with Apple’s new iPhones on the high-end side, but excellent Chinese Android models like the Xiaomi Mi4 further down the food chain. To stop the bleeding in the latter segment, it just launched the Galaxy A7, its best mid-range model and slimmest smartphone to date. As we saw earlier, the 6.3mm thick body sports a Snapdragon 64-bit octa-core CPU with 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, a 5-megapixel front and 13-megapizel rear camera. The 5.5-inch AMOLED screen is likely 720p, though Samsung didn’t specify it.
Samsung is also emphasizing its own software features like call noise reduction, extra security and multi-screen apps. There’s no word yet on availability or price, but the Korean giant is targeting Europe and Asia with the Galaxy A7, judging by the dual-SIM option. But in the latter market, it’ll be in tough against models like the $320 Mi4, which has much better specs across the board for probably much less money.
