Samsung Galaxy J7 review: Jeans & jacket

18 September, 2015
The smartphone jungle can be confusing, but the Samsung Galaxy J7 is surprisingly easy to decipher: J for "affordable price" and 7 for "big screen". This is the lite version of the Galaxy A7, offering semi-premium features but confined to the midrange. Another way to look at it is as an E7 Plus.

    Available so far only in China? Amazon US has it. Does the US version work in Europe? Region locking?
    It should have had 1080p instead the 720p. Besides, how does gsmarena arrive at 20% more displayed? my calc says more than twice as much displayed as 1080x1920/720/1280=2.25
    Replaceable battery and sdcard is a big plus.
    Perhaps this is my next device instead of the upcoming LG Nexus.

                someone please explain to me, "The difference to Galaxy A7's 1080p screen is for the most part cosmetic but the practical difference is quite big - you get 20% more space for apps and web pages on the A7."
                I just don't get it, how more resolution provides more space? Anyone here?

                  Nokia has color schemes for amoled displays since ages already. Nokia is so much better. Also I thought samsung would NOT release so many phones this year butbthey still release a couple of devices every week. They have releeased more phones than Motorola and Nokia together and even then you need a third manufacturer to equal the number of phones that samsung has released since it started. Ridiculous.
