Samsung Nepal has just launched the 2017 refresh of the widely popular Samsung Galaxy A7. It will be available in stores at a price of Rs 54,000. There will be two color options available, blue-black and gold.

The Galaxy A7 shares design cues from Samsung’s flagship phones, with a 5.7 inch Full HD super AMOLED screen supported by an aluminium frame and a 3D curved glass back. The phone features 16-Megapixel cameras on the front and the back, with a bright F1.9 aperture for the best photo even in low-light conditions. You won’t have to worry about taking the Galaxy A7 out on the streets of Kathmandu amid the dust and pollution as it is water and dust resistant. The phone features an improved fingerprint scanner to unlock the device in an instant.

Samsung has introduced a camera focused approach to this phone, with users accessing the camera with just one swipe. The Galaxy A7 is smart enough to optimise photos taken by selecting specific filters and enhancing them. Other features such as the zero camera protrusion and floating shutter button make the camera experience on the Galaxy A7 a joy to behold.

“We are committed to provide people with the most advanced and technologically sound products as per their needs,” said Pranaya Ratna Sthapit, Deputy General Manager of Mobile Business, Samsung Nepal.

With an IP68 rating, the Galaxy A7 is equipped to deal with water and dust. The phone has a large 3,600mAh battery that supports fast charging as well. The other nuts and bolts that make up most smartphones are present in the Galaxy A7 such as accelerometer, gryo sensor and compass.

The Galaxy A7 will be able to store thousands of photos with its 32GB storage,with an option to expand further using a Micro SD, up to 256GB. The phone runs on Android Marshmallow and is one of the few phones on the market that has the USB Type-C port.

“We have integrated our consumer’s feedback on our previous models along with our unique design approach and features for this phone,” said Sthapit.

Samsung Nepal is bundling a 32GB micro sd card along with a 10400mAh Anker Power bank for early bird customers.
