Unlike the Huawei P20 Pro, Samsung’s three-camera arrangement won’t set a new benchmark in the industry which is expected considering the price. It consists of a regular 24-megapixel f/1.7 lens, an 8-megapixel wide-angle sensor, and a third 5-megapixel f/2.2 snapper for depth-sensing. On the front too, the Galaxy A7 offers a high-res 24-megapixel selfie camera which the company says is capable of letting in more light by pixel binning. Apart from that, though, the Galaxy A7 is your usual mid-range smartphone. It comes with an all-glass exterior, a tall 6-inch 1080p OLED screen, and an octa-core processor clocked at 2.2GHz. There’s either 4GB or 6GB of RAM, 64GB or 128GB of onboard storage which can be expanded with a MicroSD card, and a 3300mAh battery which is compatible with quick charging. In addition, there’s a fingerprint reader housed under the power key and support for two SIM cards. Out of the box, the Samsung Galaxy A7 runs on a dated Android 8.0 software with, of course, a custom skin on top. It will be available in four color options — Blue, Black, Gold, and Pink. It’s priced at €349 (~Rs. 29,400) for the base variant and will go on sale in October in a few European and Asian markets including India.
