Design-wise, the new 2017 version features an aluminum frame with a 3D glass back the resembles the Galaxy S7/S7 Edge. It also features water resistance and the use of USB Type-C port. Sadly, it runs Android Marshmallow out of the box.

First of the trio is the Galaxy A7 (2017) and it’s also the biggest of the bunch with its 5.7-inch display.

Ang pinakahihintay ko na feature – IP certification, IP68 pa! f/1.9 pa ang camera, maganda sa lowlight ok na pang long term phone plus its Samsung, the best in display Super AMOLED.

i agree.., basta po maka text at makatawag ka nang maayos, ok na yang cellphone… wag na maghanap ng mga highend specs ng smartphones. sayang lang ang gastos…

Every year na lang may bagong models ang J, A series. Andami nilang mid range models. Expect na mga around 18k to 22 k ang a5 at a7 taz ang a3 is around 15k them by mid this year, mga 13k na a3 at sale ng almost 10k by the end of the year. Paulit ulit ang pattern even sa pricing. Just wait muna sa huawei, and asus kung anu ang pantapat nila dito.

archie · 9 years ago

Wala namang pantapat ang huawei at asus sa 4.7″ a3. Xperia compact lang ang kalaban nito. Wishful thinking na lang sa gusto pa rin ng high spec 4.7 phones dahil parehong wala ito sa philippine market.
