A 5.5-inch Super AMOLED screen sits at the front of this phone, running at 1080 x 1920 pixels for a sharp, punchy display that still holds up for everyday use. Inside, the Snapdragon 615 chipset pairs with 3GB RAM, enough for basic multitasking on Android 5.1.1, though it's not built for heavy gaming. Storage sits at 16GB, but there's a microSD slot for adding up to 128GB more.

The rear camera is a 13MP unit with OIS and an f/1.9 aperture, useful for steadier shots in low light, while the 5MP front camera handles selfies and video calls. A 3300mAh battery backs it all up, and the body keeps things slim at 7.3mm with a Gorilla Glass 4 back panel. A fingerprint sensor and NFC round out the practical features.

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) price in Malaysia starts from RM949, and it comes in Black, White, Gold, and Pink.
