I have the black model for 2 weeks today and I'm more than dissapointed. The rear camera is the worst I have seen in a Samsung Phone since 2013. It is slow, takes too much to focus (If it does) and the quality even in good light conditions is terrible. The front camera is very decent, but only in good light. The speaker is useless, because it has a nice output power but very bad location. The speakers - all of them - are useless for 12 hours if the phone gets wet or submerged. The screen is great, but the front glass is very delicate and scratches easily. The fingerprint sensor is very slow and doesn't work all the times.
It is a great design but a terrible hardware for 400 dollars.

sosh, 26 Apr 2017I am looking forward to change my phone what it the best xp... moreSamsung A7 2017 it has IP68 which is something Sony is removing from their non-flagship phones, A7 also has a 2-Year Manufacturer's Warranty, Great Battery Life and a Huge 5.7 Inch FHD Screen!
FHD is all any phone needs unless you use VR in which case as a guy with a Galaxy S8+ even QHD is not good enough you really need 4K, But for day to day use like watching Youtube or Netflix 1080p is all you need (The human eye can tell a difference between 720p & 1080p on a phone screen but not between 1080p/FHD & QHD/2K!) but QHD uses a lot more power along with CPU & GPU resources!
Basicly Samsung offer a better package for the price with the A7 compared to Sony's Xperia Ultra not that they are bad just a little dated in looks and overpriced!
Sony is making some weird decisions like NFC on the front of the phone even Apple can put NFC on the back of the iPhone (it's behind the painted Apple Logo which uses glass or perspex!), Taking away IP68 from their mid-ranged phones just as companies like Samsung start to add it to their mid-range phones, same Old Boxy Look with Huge Chins on the front (iPhone has the same problem!), Plus while not super easy to bend out of shape like the Nexus 6P or iPhone 6 are still fragile (Compared to the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, Galaxy S8 & S8+, LG G6 and so on! Just watch JerryRigEverything on Youtube!) Sony really needs to add better stiffness to the build design!

AnonD-665945, 30 Apr 2017Which is better guys? Oppo F3 Plus or Samsung a7(2016) whic... moreSamsung A7 (2017!) but if you have to go a little cheaper go for the A7 (2016!) model, OPPO has great off-screen gestures but the UI ColorOS (Based off Android 6.0 aka Marshmallow!) is made to look and feel like iOS and is super super slow in getting updated I mean it is 18 to 24 months behind Samsung or Sony or any other major OEM in getting the latest OS updates out which is just a bad Joke same goes for Vivo 1+ is much better but still way slower then other OEM's getting updates/upgrades out!
OPPO does have VOOC charging but only on the R7 & R9 phone models to my knowledge, All Samsung devices have Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging (AKA Quick Charge 2.0!).
In short go for Samsung for great build quality and features and faster charging, go for OPPO for more features but at the cost of feeling like an Apple Phone and slower updates, I am not hating on OPPO they are great phones but the UI is so much worse than Touchwiz/Grace UI/UX!
Plus 1+, OPPO, VIVO are all part of the same parent company and even in China they all have horrible customer service Samsung may not be the best but they are decent to deal with and have national companies that you can deal with along with physical stores you can take your device too (Either Samsung Stores or their Authorized Dealers/Sellers!) which make exercising your customer rights such as warranties a lot easier!

AnonD-52948, 02 May 2017Hi all
I am doing my upgrade today should I go for the S... moreGo for the A7 (In my opinion!) you get IP68 Dust & Water resistance plus all new Samsung Phones have a 2-Year Warranty!
Yes this may be less fast (Compared to the Mate 9!) in opening tasks but is much more energy efficient meaning all day battery life even well into two days which is great makes it a rival to the Moto Z Play a great phone!
Comes down to what is more important to you better gaming and video capture (Mate 9!) or a phone that is water resistant and have 2 years of manufacturer warranty on it and great battery life (Samsung A7)?!
In Short Samsung A7!
