Well the back cover is actually a glossy plastic held with little bit glue, but this make replacing the battery is easy, after 8 years the glue got hardened and the back cover came off by itself.

A7 2016 was built same like a flagship! It had a premium in hand feel with glass back . Now a days midrange phone ships with plastic back , no complaints plastic is more durable,
