Design Galaxy A7 (2018) features a
Gorilla Glass front panel with a reflective glass back panel, the side frame is made of plastic. It is available in black, blue, gold, and pink with some models supporting dual sim. The smartphone features an upgraded
Exynos 7885 SoC with an
octa-core processor consisting of 2 performance
ARM Cortex-A73 and 6 efficient
ARM Cortex-A53 cores and
Mali-G71 MP2 GPU backed by 4
GB RAM and 64 GB/128 GB of internal storage that is expandable up to 512 GB via a dedicated microSD card slot. The device retains a non-removable battery like its predecessor, but at a lower rating of 3300mAh, and eliminates Fast-Charging capability. It features a typical
microUSB connector, rather than its predecessor's newer
USB-C connector. Unlike its predecessor, it goes away with
IP68 water and dust resistance. The triple camera setup features a primary 24 MP sensor with f/1.7 aperture for normal photography, an ultra-wide 8 MP sensor with f/2.4 aperture and 120 degrees viewing angle, and a 5 MP depth sensor for effects such as Bokeh. The rear cameras feature an intelligent Scene Optimizer that include 19 different lighting modes for different scenes. The front camera is a 24MP sensor, complete with its own dedicated flash. The A7 (2018) rear camera features a
Sony IMX576 camera sensor, identical to the
A9(2018). The fingerprint sensor has been shifted from the back and integrated into the side-mounted power button, a first for a Samsung smartphone.
