Samsung's new Galaxy A7 for 2016: Big phone, middling price (hands-on)

If you like your phone big, then the new A7 with its 5.5-inch display probably won't disappoint.

Slimline Samsung Galaxy A7 comes with eight cores, selfie mode and KitKat (hands-on)

The Samsung Galaxy A7 is a svelte 4G smartphone, but doesn't include the latest Android software.

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) review

The Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016 edition, aka A7 6) launches early in 2016 to set the tone for mid-range phones: those that are not as expensive as the finest Galaxy S series and iPhones, but also a level above the Moto Gs of this world.

Very stylish, eye-catching design, solid build quality ; Very solid battery life ; Super AMOLED display has pleasing colors ; Supports expandable storage via microSD cards

Performance is disappointing: inconsistent, phone often stutters and lags ; A bit too pricey for what it offers ; Poor for gaming, GPU performance is terrible ; Ships with Android 5.1, unclear when and whether it’d get updated

There are two ways to look at the Galaxy A7 (2016). A subjective and irrational one that completely disregards its slightly exaggerated price, and a more objective one that considers all the facts.

Galaxy A7 2016 review: Close, but not quite great

Samsung's Galaxy A7 2016 is an amazing device, but a few issues prevent it from being a standout offering in the mid-range segment.

Excellent Super AMOLED display ; Premium metal-and-glass design ; Great camera ; Long-lasting battery life

Occasional UI quirks ; No Marshmallow yet ; Glass back isn't durable

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) Review: We test out Samsung's mighty 5.5-inch Galaxy A7 2016, which packs loads loads of great features for just £350.

Great battery life ; Gorgeous screen ; Slick design ; Smart cameras

Rather big ; Performance lags behind rivals ; Old Android

Yet another excellent mid-range Samsung handset, the Galaxy A7 2016 is rather big but has definite appeal to media fans who demand a gorgeous screen for enjoying their movies and shows. The camera tech is dependable and solid for the price, although...
