Overview Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) SM-J710F
First of all, I liked the smartphone for its autonomy, performance, but at the same time the body is quite slippery and it is inconvenient. For example, in terms of autonomy: 2 days of using the phone (communication, wifi, games, a little gps, a lot of social networks and forums) and there is still 19% left. It also happens that it slows down a little, a little (perhaps because of tachvis). The case is not monolithic, there are no creaks, but it does not reach the feeling of solidity of the iPhone. At close scrutiny, pixels are visible (well, that's understandable, because the resolution is not extremely high). Such a moment, in auto mode, the connection is constantly interrupted, it is better to choose 3G / 2G. As you can imagine, 4G does not always catch.
