Newly revealed Galaxy A7 is Samsung's thinnest smartphone yet
|

Samsung has revealed the Galaxy A7 today, with all the spec information you could ever want, hopefully.

It's the largest entry in Samsung's A series of smartphones so far due to its 5.5-inch 720p display. But, at only 6.33mm thick, it's the company's thinnest smartphone yet.
It comes in two packages: either single-SIM or dual-SIM. The difference being that the single-SIM has a 32-bit Exynos 5430 chipset, while the dual-SIM rolls out with a 64-bit Snapdragon 615 SoC.

Both of these options come with LTE connectivity and octa-core processors (which makes it sound like a Spider-Man villain). They also have 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB internal storage, and a microSD card slot.

Regarding connectivity, you get Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB v2.0, and NFC.

For those times you get lost, there's A-GPS + GLONASS included. While the phone's 2,600 mAh battery should mean your phone doesn't unexpectedly die on you during those trips out.

Regarding cameras, the A7 has a 5 megapixel front-facing camera. Round the back is a 13 megapixel rear-facing camera.

There's no information on how much the Galaxy A7 will cost yet, nor when it will be available, but you can probably expect it soon. We do know that it comes in Gold, Black, and White, though.
