Android Authority | Gary Sims

The result is a breed of competitively priced devices which look, feel and perform like flagship devices of only a year or two ago. The Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) is a perfect example!

A pleasant mid-range Android, if not the very best choice for enthusiasts on a budget.

TechRadar | Basil Kronfli

The Samsung Galaxy A7 is, for the most part, a great mid-range phone. It delivers a punchy screen for the price and a solid user experience, while the camera system is really versatile.

If you're a Samsung fan but don't really care that much about the camera's capabilities, you should opt for the Galaxy A8... In every other respect, the Galaxy A7 has impressed me.

The Indian Express | Shruti Dhapola

Galaxy A7's asking price is not too high for the 4GB RAM variant. It comes with a good performance and feature-packed camera, which should keep most users happy.

The Economic Times | Karan Bajaj

For a mid-range offering, the Samsung Galaxy A7 stands out of the crowd with a triple camera setup.

phoneArena | Victor Hristov

Don't get us wrong: it's a phone that has that glass look and style that comes with it, and it handles basic tasks mostly okay... but overall this phone just lacks excitement and vigor! And that's just unforgivable at the price that Samsung is asking for it.

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM Only deals do not include plans shorter than 30 days or Pay As You Go rates.
  • We work really hard to get accurate prices from as many providers as possible, but some deals or providers may not be included; if there’s anything we’ve missed then please get in touch and let us know.
  • Whenever we can, we will let you know if a deal is time limited (such as a flash deal), and when the deal expires.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
  • Ofcom runs a voluntary accreditation scheme for digital comparison tools (DCTs) for telephone, broadband and pay-TV, and has confirmed that this DCT meets the criteria for accreditation. For further details about the scheme, including the criteria that DCTs must meet, visit the price comparison page on the Ofcom website.
