Samsung announced the launch of the Galaxy A7 earlier today. It's the company's first smartphone with a triple camera system at the back. There has been a lot of hype for this device in the days leading up to its launch. Samsung has never made a triple camera smartphone before so naturally, many are interested in seeing just how good of a job it has done.
The company mentioned in the press release that this device will be available in select markets across Europe and Asia this fall. It will be offered in blue, black, gold and pink colors. The price of this handset has now been officially confirmed to us.

The main specs of the Galaxy A7 are quite similar an existing device as our Galaxy A7 vs Galaxy A8+ (2018) specs comparison shows. The rear triple camera is the main difference between these devices. The Galaxy A7 has a 24-megapixel primary lens with f/1.7 aperture.
It's coupled with an 8-megapixel Ultra-Wide lens with f/2.4 aperture. Samsung says that it has aa 120-degree viewing angle which is the “same viewing angle as the human eye.” The third camera is a 5-megapixel f/2.2 aperture depth sensor.
There's a 24-megapixel camera upfront as well for selfies with f/2.0 aperture and an adjustable LED flash. The camera hardware does look promising on paper. However, only real world tests will show if they're any good at what they're supposed to do. A higher number of sensors does not automatically equal better performance after all.
Customers in select Asian and European markets will be able to purchase this device in the near future thereafter Samsung will release the handset in other markets down the road. It has confirmed to us that the Samsung Galaxy A7 price is 350 euro which is around $410. That's going to be the price range for this handset in other markets as well.
