Design-wise, the Samsung Galaxy On7 is almost similar to any other Galaxy phone and it has the same design as that of smaller On5. Samsung has retained the same old design and there is nothing refreshing or new about the device. The rear panel comes with a faux leather-like finish and has the 13MP rear camera along with LED flash, Samsung branding and speaker unit located near the camera.
The power button is on the right side while the volume keys are placed on the left panel. The bottom panel houses the 3.5mm audio jack and the micro USB charging slot along with the microphone. The rear panel is removable and the dual SIM card along with micro SD card sit inside it. The battery on the device is also removable. The rear panel finishing looks like the one on Note 3. The front panel has the 5.5 inch HD display, home button and two capacitive buttons which are not backlit. There is also 5MP front camera and sensors. The On7 also misses out on the ambient light sensor. Overall, the On7 design does not look inspiring.
The phone comes with 5.5 inch HD display (1280 X 720p), but unlike the J7, the On7 does not come with AMOLED panel, instead it is a TFT display like the Grand prime. The display is decent with good colors, but not as vivid as the AMOLED panel. The touch response also looks good. The On7 comes with a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera that can capture a wide 120-degree angle. You can quickly launch this phone’s camera by double tapping the home button from any screen. We will have the detailed review of the camera, so stay tuned.
The On7 is powered by 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 with 1.5GB of RAM. The performance of the device in the first use was pretty decent with no issues. The device comes with 8GB of storage which is expandable via micro SD card. The phone runs Android 5.1 Lollipop with custom Touch wiz UI from Samsung. There is also 4G LTE support on both the SIM card. The battery capacity is at 3000mAh, which should be able to power the device for a day.
The device is priced Rs 10,999 and available exclusively on Flipkart. We will have the detailed review coming up on our blog soon, meanwhile do check out our YouTube channel for more videos on this device.
