Samsung has made quite a name in the world of smartphones, but 2016 was a tough year for the company. While Samsung has launched several different smartphone series in the world, the Samsung Galaxy S and Galaxy Note series made all the noise in the current year.
The Samsung Galaxy Note series got some negative attention as well, no thanks to the battery explosion episodes. In spite of all the problems and negative reviews, Samsung is all geared up for the release of their next flagship devices.
Samsung had had an average year. Even though they had to face the problem with the Galaxy Note series, they sold the lower-end Galaxy J-series and then the Galaxy A- series. According to Android Headlines, Samsung is all geared up for a great 2017 portfolio, and one of the primary devices would be the Samsung Gear S.
GSM Arena reported that Samsung Galaxy A7 might not see a European release. The Austrian website for the tech giants list Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5, which will release in 2017 as Gear S3 compatible device, but there isn’t any mention of Galaxy A7.
Samsung hasn’t made any official announcement about its 2017 A-series. However, if the Samsung Galaxy A7 doesn’t launch in 2017, it won’t be quite a surprise since Galaxy A7 (2016) wasn’t launched in the region as well.
The South-Korean giants released all the A-series models from 2015 available to the European market, but things were different for the 2016 models. Apart from Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5, none of the other models saw a Europe launch.
Users were hopeful that things would be different with the 2017 model, but it looks like Samsung will keep A7 away from Europe, this time as well.
Rumors about Galaxy A7 have been doing the rounds for a long time. There was some leaked information that found its way on the internet as well. With the news of all the features and specs of the new smartphone, the users can’t seem to wait for the device to launch.
Game N Guide reported that the Samsung Galaxy A7 has already been seen with the model number, SM-A720F. Tech experts believe that the smartphone will release as soon as it gets the Bluetooth certification. The 2016 model of Galaxy A7 release last year in December and many are hopeful that Samsung might decide to release the 2017 model of Galaxy A7 during the same time, this year.
International Business Times reported that many saw the listing for the Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017) in different export-import sites. Some of the websites even listed a price for the product. Christian Times stated that Samsung Galaxy A7 would release soon enough since the device has received the Bluetooth certification.
According to rumors, the Samsung Galaxy A7 will include the Exynos 7870 chipset with a Mali-T830 GPU. Galaxy A7 will have a 3GB RAM. The buyer will have the option to pick between a 32GB and a 64GB variant, with an additional microSD slot. The mobile-octa core CPU is expected to clock at 1.8 GHz.
The Samsung Galaxy A7 will have either a 5.5-inch or a 5.7-inch display. The screen will have a resolution of 1080p and come with an AMOLED panel. Other rumors suggest that the A7 will have a 157.69 x 76.92 x 7.8 mm chassis unlike the 151.5 x 74.1 x 7.3 mm that the 2016 model sported.
