It wasn't that long ago that the Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) came out a few months ago with RM1049, previously in our review, we felt that for a device in that price range, it's lacking behind other smartphones in terms of overall performance and some missing features such as a fingerprint sensor.

That's what we're about to find out.

OPPO has always been known for their good camera quality on their smartphones, just earlier this year, the OPPO F1 made its debut in Vietnam but it was presented as a normal mid-range device. So how does one improve it as the seasons come and go? The answer - prioritize the front camera by pumping it up to 16MP, and introduce the OPPO Plus & F1s to the world as a selfie expert smartphone. We got the F1s model which was released in Malaysia just last month, does it really live up as the selfie expert? Let’s find out.

We have already done the Galaxy J1 (2016) review, so today, we will be reviewing the Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016). How does it hold up after two months? Read below to find out.

These days when you say “metal”, you would expect something that is both refined, and elegant to the touch. You would also expect the pricing to be at the higher end of the scale, as people normally put the lower price brackets with plastic builds that is nasty and cheap. Not the Vivo V3. This is one of the few full-metal body smartphones out there that is elegant to the touch, nice to look at, and nicer to your wallet.

There are catches, but not as many as you would think. Better yet, Vivo has managed to pair the phone with some impressive specs without breaking the bank. How does this all stack up? Let’s find out shall we?
