Got this phone yesterday.....i can confirm this phone is using the same chipset/proc same with A8/A8+.
At this price worth buying.....i know a lot of people complaining why this phone got some features lower than 2017 version........look at the price first.
Worth for me
1. 128gb rom
2. Triple primary camera
3. Superamoled screen 6"
4. Side finger print sensor
5. And some camera features like AR selfie and etc.
6. Size smaller compare with my A8+

I m satisfy with this phone at this price.
I havent really test the camera yet....going to compare it with my A8 Star later.



P/S: The phone come with superslim tempered glass.....the shop people go install 1 more on it

Here some sample picture taken......please dont judge the photo because i m no good on taking photos
Triple camera vs Dual camera

Auto Mode 18:5:9 10MP - A7 2018 vs A8 Star








Live Focus Mode
Dont understand why live focus photo is black when uploading here
For live focus mode A7 2018 slightly better than A8 Star.


For selfie A7 2017 slightly better than A8 Star. And A8 star got some camera features that dual camera dont have [default features].

No type C....using microUSB....charging time take bout 1.5 to 2 hours

Yup, both sim work at the same time but for data u only can choose either 1 sim.

Yes, u can use "display always ON" feature to double tap the screen

The screen protector already install on the phone and the case is inside the box

Maybe he mean including front camera

Both sim card can be set at sim setting.
U can use any slot for any sim...it can be choose or can be set as default.
Example:
Sim 1 is XOX sim [data] internet only
Sim 2 is Prepaid [no data] making call/sms only

U can set sim 1 for data only and sim 2 for call & sms only.
OR......u also can choose which sim to make call/sms manualy at dialer there. Very easy to use....u go thro 1 time u will understand how it works.


Only is for Data.....it work only 1 sim at a time. Either sim 1 or sim 2. Is up to u to put internet sim in which slot u like, both slots support LTE/3G. Cant run both sims for Data at the same time.

For call/sms both sim can work together means both sim standby for call/sms.

My advise is put calling sim at sim 1 and internet sim at sim 2 [must set data to sim 2]. And set call/sms at sim 1. Thats all....easy. Or u can use the opposite way.


Set it at "Preferred Sim Card"

Enable dual apps mode [whatsapp] at setting there. It will auto install another whatsapp. Yup, whatsapp works like usual following your phone numbers.

No heat issue for me......i use it for gaming also

Cant put it manualy. U have to install it. Unifi will send u a CP Message. Try check it on your CP message see got this message or not.

Mine works on both sims......redo it again and see.

There is some sample picture on page #2. For me is worth....triple camera, 128gb rom + dedicated memory card slot and superamoled screen.

Cheap tempered glass selling everywhere. I bought nillkin from shoppe but seller from china & ship from china too

A7 got new update which now can support Super Slo-Mo.

Shop a bit hard to get the accessories for this phone. Buy online better. Much cheaper if buy online. I bought some case online [lazada/shoppe].....all from china. Quality very good. Only is u have to wait for 2-3 weeks for delivery

For tempered glass...try get Nillkin Amazing H+.......very good glass. I use this brand since Note1 till today for all my phones.
