Samsung Galaxy On7 Pro

Galaxy On7 Pro (2)

The Samsung Galaxy On7 Pro (review) is yet another offering by the Korean giant for the budget buyers. Apart from metal ring and faux leather back, rest of the design is borrowed from its predecessor. It sports a 5.5-inch TFT display with HD resolution. It is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset coupled with Adreno 306 GPU and 2GB RAM.

It comes with 16GB of onboard storage that can be bumped up to 128GB using microSD card. On the software part, Samsung throws in a couple of gimmicky features like S-bike mode and UDS which might or might not be useful to you. However, the Samsung Galaxy On7 Pro should appeal to all those prefer to buy a tear-1 branded option and the assuring customer care support that tags along.
