    What a phone "Awesome"....... Only this phone under 10k best battery phone....... Battery is removable which is advantage but some cons like speaker on cam side, no light sensor, no magnetic sensory, 16 gb internal memory low, no fingerprint if u avoid this then go for it :)

        Thanks guys. I was just wondering if it was a cause for concern. Glad to know it's not a big issue. Let's hope Samsung deploys an update to fix that

            AnonD-708981, 24 Jan 2018Sometimes my phone's screen becomes fuzzy grey when I wake ... moreSame here but I think thats not a big case. To solve the problem instantly just maximize your screen brightness and again back it to the normal brightness. I hope it helps.

              AnonD-708981, 24 Jan 2018Sometimes my phone's screen becomes fuzzy grey when I wake ... moreIt's the same here. I did not try to factory reset it though. I just think it's problem with software. It happened on Marshmallow and happens on Nougat now. I don't mind it too much, but yeah I hope for an update or something that will fix that.

                AnonD-621054, 24 Jan 2018Tks for your review but gaming wise poor performance j7 7 ... moreIf you want to play games just get J7 2016 and you are good to go. It can run basically everything you throw at it. Only problem is not so big memory, so you really can't install a lot of apps and big size games. And about J8, I guess that we will see. No idea about that one since it's not even out yet.

                  Sometimes my phone's screen becomes fuzzy grey when I wake it up from sleep mode. Is it normal? Surely doesn't seem normal to me, but is it a common issue? Should I worry? It doesn't happen always. In fact, it happens rarely. When I wake it up from sleep mode, screen becomes grey. What I do is I just turn off the screen and turn it back on and it gets back to normal. Anyone else having a similar issue?

                        My J710FN will be updated with 278,40 MB. What is it? (I live in Austria/Europe.)

It has better screen, more RAM, more storage, fingerprint scanner and better premium build. Only downside is that CPU is the same as the one in J7 2016, so if you are a gamer you will totally feel that, since it needs to push higher resolution, and there is no removable back in J7 Pro if you care about that. But yeah, in like every aspect J7 Pro is better.

We're yet to see how well J7 16 runs Oreo, if it runs as well as it does now, on Nougat (if and when Oreo makes its way to this phone). It's CPU is very capable, we all know that, it's good enough. But processor and RAM go hand in hand when it comes to overall speed and performance of a device. It's got only 2 gigs of RAM, which isn't horrible, but definitely not as good since most of the smartphones we see today have a minimum of 3 GB of RAM, which is a norm these days.

Battery life on Nougat is inferior compared to what is was on marshmallow. It's still good though (or very good), but just not as good as it was prior to Nougat update. Mine could easily last a day and a half on a single charge, even though I am a heavy user. On moderate use, it could easily last two days.
                                      It was heavenly! It really was.

As for text messages, go into settings - Cloud and accounts - Backup and Restore - Backup settings - Now you can choose what you would like to back up.
                                        Make sure your toggle off Apps, music, home screen, & documents, if text messages are all that you want to back up.
