New patent hints at Apple Watch Series 4 with blood pressure monitoring
Thanks to the PenTile sub-pixel arrangement of Samsung OLED screens, the phone looks slightly less sharp than a 1080p phone with an LCD panel. However, the effect is minor. You’ll just see a tiny bit of fuzz around characters when you look very close, and the Galaxy A7 is still distinctly sharper than, for example, the Moto One. Alongside the Honor 8X this phone has one of the best displays in this class. And for late-night movies, the A7 is easily the better of the two. OLED tech makes it much easier to apply the Galaxy A7’s always-on screen feature, again thanks to those light-up pixels. Only the lit parts of the screen use significant power, where a standard LCD is either lit-up, or not. The always-on screen shows the time, battery level and notification icons.
You can turn this feature off if you find it distracting. Samsung Galaxy A7 — Software The Samsung Galaxy A7 runs Android 8.0, and there’s a custom interface on top. It’s not the latest version of Android and nowadays Samsung’s interface is one of the most visually distinctive of all the UIs. Check out those soft keys: they’re Samsung hieroglyphs, nothing like what you see in standard Android. The Galaxy A7 is also packed with a lot of extra apps. This sounds like the makings of a reason to avoid the Galaxy A7. It’s not, though, just a reason some of you may want to consider an Android One alternative. The Galaxy A7’s software is essentially the same as that used by the Galaxy S9 and Note 9. And many of the preinstalled apps are fairly good. Samsung Health?

Not bad. Voice recorder? Handy. And preinstalling the Microsoft Office suite seems inoffensive enough.
It only annoys when it tries to take over things Google does well, such as auto-filling of forms and passwords. Samsung tries harder than any Android maker to get under your skin. The software works perfectly well, though. General performance is among the best at the price, with minimal lag, and no sense your apps get closed down in the background too “early”. Every phone continues to keep recently-used apps “open” in a frozen saved state. It’s what enables standard phone multi-tasking.

But if RAM is limited, these have to be jettisoned fairly quickly. The Galaxy A7 has 4GB RAM, so can afford to keep a good number of parked apps active. Samsung Galaxy A7 — Performance The Samsung Galaxy A7 has a Exynos 7885 Octa processor. Its CPU side is actually more impressive than most in this category.
Standard procedure is to use eight Cortex-A53 cores, or eight of the er equivalent Kryo 260 cores. This processor has six Cortex-A53s and two Cortex-A73s, which used to be the preserve of high-end and upper-mid range phones. It’s may be a lower-end engine, but it is a turbo-charged one. However, this extra CPU power is unfortunately not matched on the GPU side. The Exynos 7885 Octa has a dual-core Mali G71 GPU: the Mali G71 part is fine, the “dual-core” part less so. Two cores is barely enough to get by at 1080p.
The quad-core Mali G51 of the Honor 8X and Adreno 509 of the Nokia 7.1 are roughly twice as powerful. Even the ageing Adreno 506 of the Snapdragon 625 system on chip used in the Moto One is roughly 20 per cent more powerful. If there’s a weak point to the Galaxy A7, it’s this graphics chipset. And that it’s paired with a rather good CPU side is all the more annoying. But how does this pan out in real-world use? It depends entirely on how much of a gamer you are. Most popular games are made with less powerful phones than the Galaxy A7 in mind. However, a game that gives you more control over graphics settings highlights its limitations.
Ark: Survival Evolved only runs at “low” graphics, and only does so well if you significantly reduce the smart resolution slider, which renders part of the scene at lower fidelity. This kind of compromise traditionally applied to every phone at this level.
