Well I've had the phone for 2 years and here are the problems that have arouse
Pros
1. Out of the 2 years of usage the phone has only frozen on me once
2. The battery lasts quite a bit depending on how you use it & the storage space is nice
3. The camera quality is good, though mostly only in daylight, I personally don't use the ultra-wide lens or live focus because I don't think its good
4. The display is really good, watching movies & series's is nice plus the speaker is clear and loud and the performance of the phone when either playing a game or having multiple windows is good, though I've not tried very demanded video games on the phone so I'm not sure how well it fares there.
Cons
1. Somehow the charging port has broken/malfunctioned and I sometimes have to put it in a specific position for it to charge.
2. The fingerprint sensor has worked perfectly most of the time, though lately it says the fingerprint sensor is dirty, even though I cleaned it. (to fix this issue I would either just wait it out until it started working again or restart the phone)
3. The charging is a lot slower than it used to be
4. Face recognition was terrible in my case, it would work once then never work again

The reasons why this phone is so bad are as follows:
Battery Life - terrible, anyone who uses it for anything but a paperweight is in trouble
Reaction Time - Terrible, you can be waiting five or six seconds until you realise your swipe didn't register. so you swipe or press again, for it to suddenly remember the previous function and then you have to start again.
Memory - terrible - OK, I have a few photos, but no more than the average user. I spend my life on 99%
Charging Jack - Broken three times, couldn't charge it.
Cordless Charging - Doesn't have it.
I have switched back to the Samsung S7. Two years old but so much better.

I don't know why most of you guys have a problem with this phone, i've been using mine for almost 2 years, updated to android 10 and that 100mb whatever, but i didn't have a problem.. the 100mb update though is kinda useless, no change or improvement.. but the bottomline here for me is i don't have a problem with this phone.

I am tired of this phone. Get off and freezes and stopped working just after 2 months. I am thinking of switching to a new brand entirely. I have been using Samsung since 2008.This is the last straw. Phone not strong , screen breaks easily from a height of less than 5 cm

Hi there.
I read the full info about the Samsung A7 2018.
There is a missing data about the front camera flash, at least the A750G model (the one I have) it really comes with flash.
Also the back doesn't seems to be crystal, I think it's some kind of polymer.
Thanks for everything, it's a great web page

Anonymous, 04 Jun 2020So apparently this phone can get Android 10 but the S8 can'... moreI think it can handle android 10 but they don't want to make updates for older phones only for newer phones. That will make people to buy new phones and phones with older android versions will be laggy than newer versions. When S8 was released there were commercials , recensions and that phone was spectacular and powerful. When it reached about 2 years it is old and they don't want to do more efforts in phone and updates.

So apparently this phone can get Android 10 but the S8 can't because "it's not strong enough to run it" even tho the S8 is literally miles ahead of the A7

Daigo Castillo, 21 May 2020Just wait. But most of us already got it. Maybe it depends ... moreI would rather the newer A30 it's actually cheaper and better features, better battery bigger screen, waterproof, rear position finger print scanner, still Full HD quality screen, vibrant colours.
