Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017)

Advantages: Bright Screen, good sound, strong antenna, smart, strong battery.

Disadvantages: 1 Often the fingerprint does not work, you have to get into the phone through a graphic lock.
2 The camera is rather weak, but the phone is not a “flagship”.
3 Auto brightness change is very slow. thinks for a few seconds.
4 Not a removable battery, in which case you simply either have to throw out or put a lot of money for repairs.
5 It could be done and sealed once such a body is not collapsible.

Comment: An excellent phone fully justifies its money, especially since I bought it from a share in MTS for only 14 thousand almost half a year ago. Immediately bought a cover book, because well, very slippery, I do not know minus or not. :) everyone writes little memory, I have enough, since I use it purely for work. I liked the antenna very strong, I always suffered from the reception of communication in the garage, I tried all the networks, I bought this phone and the whole problem went away, I calmly talk. Take it you will not regret a great phone. :)

Advantages: I have been using the phone for two months already, in general, I am satisfied with everything in order. By tradition, with the merits:
1. The screen, it is big, juicy, bright, with good resolution, color reproduction and grain. But I love Samsovsky amoles accustomed to them by the way on the Mi6 did not like the screen, although there is more resolution there.
2. Appearance. Very solid, narrow side frames, stylish metal body, oleophobic glass, impeccable design, strict symmetry, the eye is happy. In the hand is very nice, the buttons are pressed with a noble effort. The weight of the phone here, I rather attribute to the pros, as it adds solidity and integrity of the image.
3.AD I do not know why many are bombed here from gray light, but it can only be seen in the pitch darkness. AOD is terribly useful, beautiful, and most importantly, an informative thing with a bunch of settings, I'm plus.
4. Battery. GoodNot great straight, but good - the active use of smarts during the day, games, movies, music, geodata (not permanently), wi-wi-fi, the same ANM (it devours 10% per day), there are still 10% days with active mode just will not last, and I think a good indicator of the day. Charges in 90 minutes from 10 to 100%.
5. Andrew 7 and the shell from Samsung - everything is intuitive, a lot of options for optimizing the system, battery, etc. About the developer's menu, what would transfer applications to the SD card here they wrote, it is unlocked elementally and quickly. Samsung Pei also turn on here, conveniently, bind cards and voila. If you forgot your wallet, just use this feature. By the way, do not forget that after updating the application, they are again recorded in the phone’s memory and must be forcibly transferred back to the SD card.
6. Fingerprint is a great feature that allows you not only to unlock the phone, but also to activate the entrance to many sites / applications where a password was needed, we now carry out just by putting a finger. The only thing is to correctly set fingerprints, put a finger, closing the entire button, and “scan” from different angles.

Disadvantages: Now about the sour, well, where do without it. I will list briefly:
1. Slippery - a fee for a beautiful metal case, be extremely careful and neat, but rather cover it, I bought a transparent silicone case from the Chinese brothers, got up like a native, and did not spoil the look, and set the protective cover. The same applies to the glass, it is by the way not a gorilla and not even a chimpanzee, therefore mast hev. I am a supporter of protective glass, I bought premium grade oleophobic glass from the same brothers and am satisfied.
2. The camera is the main pain and tear. She is certainly weak and ... fresh or something. It seems like a bunch of settings, but on my old S4 the pictures were clearly better. In addition, there is no optical stabilization, and if you have Saturday morning tremor, then it is better to postpone the photo session for later. No, I will not say that it is a direct failure, but the fact that it is not a fountain is for sure.
3. Subuping. After a couple of months of work was noticed. It can blunt for a couple of seconds, especially if you enter from the wai-fay zone and it switches to mobile communication. While not very annoying, but the symptom is not good. I’ll also note here - a geolocation fell off a couple of days ago, it worked very crookedly, and then everything was just crushed, but it seemed to work the next day, I don’t know, it could have been very cloudy, although my wife’s iPhone perfectly found satellites, but with iPhone it always It was good.
4. Memory. Not enough of course. 16yr is now straight child volume. Therefore, install only important applications, transfer them directly to CD, all photos, videos, etc., automatically save to the card, regularly clean the smart from the saved media files from Watsup, telegram, VibER, etc., because by default this trash in your gallery and clogs the internal memory
5. It is not always convenient to work with one hand, accidentally pressing the bottom buttons, but these are rather anatomical features and accuracy, there is not even a disadvantage.

Comment: Summing up, I can firmly say that the smart turned out to be a good, strong such middling. 15 thousand red price to him. I recommend to take it, this is certainly not a flagship, but also not a bottom. Such a smart smartik, every day, and this is, for a minute, the Samsung brand. China is not a cake yet. And let Xiaomists shout that their phones are picking up stopitsot parrots, yet it is more pleasant to have the product of our South Korean partners. Well, it's like you are doing sports with a traffic light of a fret of a grant, and you sit in your Volvo and smile like that. There will be questions, I will answer with pleasure - konstrpi@yandex.ru

Advantages: The camera takes detailed pictures. The phone lasts for a day and a half (which is very good). The screen is definitely good. And most importantly, functional. He is on top of this phone.

Disadvantages: This phone has 2 minuses. Let's start with the little one. The Always On Display function works, but not as much as on the same Samsung galaxy S8 or S8 +. The screen is highlighted and at night it is noticeable. 2 minus is of course RAM (RAM), which in this phone is 3 gigabytes.You will say that 3 gigabytes is the norm among smartphones in this price segment. Yes, this is the norm. But the shell is very gluttonous. It takes 2/3 of the device's RAM. These are the only cons that I would point out.

Comment: In general, the device is good. I was delighted and now too. Ergonomics is very thoughtful and good. The screen is some very bright. At night on the minimum in the room is bright. But this is a plus. This is all I wanted to tell you. Goodbye)

Advantages: 1. Very smart. Even putting 30-40 applications, some of which work in the background - does not slow down.
2. A separate place for the memory card, not combined with the 2nd Sim.
3. Very stylish design and nice screen.
4. Can always show the time on the display.
5. Normally keeps charging: with active use, 16 hours a day with Bluetooth turned on (to synchronize with the clock), a bunch of applications in the background (synchronization of mail, instant messengers, etc.). Holds charge for 1.5 days.
When there were no hours and moderate use - more than two days.

Disadvantages: 1. Very slippery. There is even nothing to compare, because I did not see a slippery phone. If you put all kinds of bumpers and covers - the problem is solved, but I am opposed to buying a 7mm phone and hanging out another 7.
2. Samsung Health significantly overestimates the actual number of steps (perhaps at all that).
3. There are extra pre-installed applications that can not be removed (perhaps at all so).
4. The camera at the maximum takes in the resolution of 4: 3, and not 16: 9 (it is possible at all that).
5. Wet finger can not be unlocked by a fingerprint (perhaps at all so).
6. Due to the fact that the almost frameless at the edges often occur accidental pressing while in the hand.
7. Some applications, such as Yandex.Navigator, are not transferred to a USB flash drive.

Comment: I put a strict top five, because These disadvantages do not greatly affect the work and more are costs.
Bought by chance, because I broke my old ASUS ZenFone 2 and urgently needed a new phone. Compared with Xiaomi Mi A1, and even chose the latter (spitting on the lack of NFC), but in the online store where the most favorable prices were only Pink was, so Samsung J7 2017 came on the scene about which I don’t regret at all. And NFC once saved and I was able to live a day without a wallet with cash and cards, forgetting it with my parents.

Ready to recommend.

Advantages: * Screen
* Ergonomics
* High speed
* Samsung pay
* Elegant native shell
* Excellent oleophobic
* Battery
* Price

Disadvantages: A little lacking internal memory, but it is treated. If you find fault - For a week it is not clear where there was a scratch on the back cover.

Comment: I use the week, but I use it actively. I’ll start with the minus that everyone is talking about and that he ran into himself - after 4 days when loading only his basic set of software, he faced a lack of memory. It is treated simply: "settings" - "information about the phone" - "information about the software" - "Build number". Click until the developer menu is turned on. Go back to "Settings" - "Developer menu" and turn on "Allow saving to external ...". After that, almost any third-party software can be transferred to the memory card in the application menu. Below I attach the screenshots from the forum w3bsit3-dns.com for clarity.
I will say right away - I have never used Samsung before. Lover of Huawei and xiaomi. I was forced to take a new phone in exchange for a broken Huawei p9 lite.
I searched for a long time, after the heroic P9 light was sure that I would take a strictly huavei. Compared all existing honors and light versions within 18 thousand. I also looked at Xiaomi Mi5S. But from the Huaveans, the same P9 lite fell away. It was not enough operatives, new did not like the assembly. Mi5 and Mi5s rose in price and disappeared from those stores that I trust. At the last moment included in the search and Samsung and ... hello j7 2017. I was confused only by one moment. In a couple of reviews they talk about slowing down, in a pair about a weak camera, in a pair about a lack of memory.
So - how to cure the memory already written earlier - two seconds and here is your happiness.Brakes are not noticed even with a full internal memory (before I figured out the possibility of transferring to a USB flash drive). From games - I play only in War and Magic. On the P9 Lite, I was very hot and the battery melted before my eyes. It also works at times smoother, switches faster, loads, does not heat up at all, and keeps the battery with a bang (an hour and a half on the road with music and playing - 15 percent. At P9 per hour, landed 25-30 percent).
The camera is quite decent. In sunny weather will be generally gorgeous.
The battery pulls with active use until the end of the day in the light. From Adapt sound generally brings to orgasm.
In other words - I strongly advise everyone.

Advantages: Screen. Design. Speed ​​of work Nimble. Battery. When the average use lasts for two days. The average saving mode will increase the usage time for another 10 hours. And the super-energy saving mode will triple this time.
The camera is nothing like a phone. In dim daylight, the pictures taken in the room are of fairly tolerable quality. But the color rendition is not particularly true.

Disadvantages: Fingerprint does not always work. Does not react if the skin is even slightly moist. Infuriates sometimes. But these are trifles. This is not the most important feature in the phone.

Comment: Little memory. This is yes. But I do not need much. I have a few applications. Photos and videos too. Movies do not upload. And I do not play games at all. Therefore, such a small amount of memory is not critical for me at all.

ZY The first photo with a cat was made without a flash, and the second with a flash.

Advantages: The design is virtually indistinguishable from the S7, the “brutal” look, stylish body, excellent bright display, conveniently in hand, looks “expensive”, good camera with excellent aperture, fast fingerprint scanner, work speed at height.

Disadvantages: The camera, despite its excellent luminosity in F1.7, does not shoot like premium models (S6, S7, S8 and other companies) do, this is especially noticeable in “complex” scenes where there are bright and dark frame elements.

Comment: I bought it for my sister, it turned out quite by accident, the phone "arrived" in a single copy, I saw it and immediately grabbed it. The model, especially with glass and a case, leaves a complete impression of working with the S7. The phone works smartly, though I didn’t check it in games. Everything else - with a bang! A little upset the camera, it is not exactly bad here, the camera is “middling”, but with a good aperture, which allows shooting with a lack of light. And this is understandable, if you want a better camera, buy premium models. But here you can get quite decent pictures. Definitely would recommend to buy in return "Chinese", especially the past issues. I would call this device "an excellent state employee."
