Samsung Galaxy A7 launched in South Africa
Samsung South Africa has launched the Galaxy A7, which it said is one of the slimmest Galaxy smartphones on the market.
The Galaxy A7 is equipped with an Exynos octa-core processor – which consists of two separate quad-core processors – 16GB of storage, 2GB of RAM, and a 2,600mAh battery.
It also offers many of the same features as the Galaxy A5 and A3, including a 5MP front-facing camera with “selfie” capabilities, such as Ultra Wide Shot and Auto Selfie – which makes it possible to take a photo using a voice command or a wave of the hand.
