The A-series of smartphones launched by the brand is Samsung's attempt to launch premium mid range devices in India. These handsets take cue from the Galaxy Alpha smartphone launched by the brand when it comes to specifications and design. Samsung launched Galaxy A7 (2016) as the successor of the first device in the lineup. This is a brief overview of the handset for the reading benefit of our readers.

Fingerprint scanner: This handset comes with the same fingerprint scanner imbibed in the front home button as on flagship devices. The scanner on this handset comes with the 360 degree recognition, which means users can place their thumb or finger any way and it will recognise it.

Gorilla Glass 3 protection: The AMOLED display on this handset is a good one with perfect color production and contrast. Samsung has made sure that the display does not shatter easily, with a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 3.

Quick charging: The battery in this handset is pretty good at 3300 mAh and easily lasts a day on moderate usage. However, users can also charge the device up in no time as it comes with the Quick Charging feature.

Loudspeaker is slightly muted: This handset comes with a decent loudspeaker on the bottom edge, which produces average audio output. The handset will disappoint those who depend upon their devices to listen to music and multimedia.
