Samsung J7 Max price in India is Rs. 17,900, still an affordable price tag that many people in the country can afford

India is such a vast and potential market that no smartphone maker can ignore. Samsung has gone as far as launching some India-only smartphones to strengthen its standing in the country’s market. A year after the launch of the Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime, the Korean phone maker introduced the Samsung J7 Max, its successor.

Samsung India follows the same old recipe of omitting the unnecessary and keep the important features only. Samsung J7 Max price in India is Rs. 17,900, still an affordable price tag that many people can afford.

Here is the Samsung J7 Max specification table:

Design

Given the j7 max price in India 2017, we cannot expect anything more high-end than this look

The design of the J7 Max does not stray far from the smartphones Samsung India launched in the last few years, except for the flagship offers of course. It is quite a big phone with a display of 5.7 inches. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy J7 Max is a handsome phone to look at.

The thin line that runs across the back, the top, and around the edges will make you think that the back is removable but it is actually not. While you may think that the body is a mix of plastic and metal, it is made entirely from the latter material.

The phone is solid to the touch and will stay firmly on your hand but the back will show fingerprints clearly so you might want to clean it regularly.

Given the Samsung J7 Max price in India, we cannot expect anything more high-end than that.

Display

The handsome overall look of the phone would be complemented with an AMOLED display if that was the case. However, the LCD Full HD screen is decent, at this price bracket. The contrast, viewing angle, and colors are all felt high-end for a budget smartphone. Even under the harsh sunlight of India, users can still see the content on display.

Smart Glow

If you have the habit of placing the phone right side up like most of humanity, the feature will be completely useless

The Smart Glow is what sets the J7 Max apart. It is in the place of the notification light. Users can customize the colors of the ring. However, if you have the habit of placing the phone right side up like most of humanity, the feature will be completely useless.

Camera

Samsung J7 Max price in India is low, yet its camera manages to take in more light than its processors with an aperture of f/1.7.

The 13MP rear camera allows users to take a decent picture. If you get enough light for your photos, expect them to pack plenty of details; however, the colors can be a little dull from time to time.

The camera is a bit slow after you press the shutter button but the shake-free photos are to be expected.

Samsung j7 max 2017 price in india is decent for what it offers.

Sharpness is limited in pictures taken at night although the low aperture does help with capturing a little bit more light.

The selfie camera has 13MP too but the aperture of f/1.9 means that the details are not as many as those taken by the front camera. Indoor photos do show some noises but the overall quality is decent. If you need it, the flashlight can do a wonderful job lighten up your face.

Software

The Samsung J7 Max 2017 runs on Android 7.0 Nougat

The Samsung J7 Max 2017 runs on Android 7.0 Nougat. Bixby does not show up here but you will get the UI and app icons found on flagship Samsung India’s phones.

The phone also has features like Secure Folder, Multi Window multitasking, and support for themes.

The J7 comes equipped with Pay Mini, Samsung Pay’s stripped-down version. It supports only Mobikwik, PayTM, and India’s UPI interface.

Performance

The J7 Max seems to get stuck at simple tasks like opening up the camera app or a notification from the lockscreen. Samsung’s software and MediaTek are both at fault letting this inconvenience happens.

Samsung J7 Max price in India is affordable, but that does not justify the stutters and lags users have to put up with, given that you can get other smartphones at that same price without the performance problem.

Audio And Call Quality

The phone comes with its own earphones but given Samsung J7 Max price in India, do not expect a great sound quality here

The external speakers of the J7 are of good quality. It is loud enough and does not show much of distortion when the volume is turned on to maximum.

The phone comes with its own earphones but given Samsung J7 Max price in India, do not expect a great sound quality here. The depth is missing and users can only make out the high most of the time. However, when you make calls, the person on the other end can still hear you clearly.

Network performance is a plus as the phone is quite fast in connecting when the cellular data is used. The LTE speed is decent too.

Battery Life

The J7 Max’s 3,300 mAh battery can sustain you a full day of heavy usage, with both of the SIMs, LTE, and Wi-Fi on. The phone can even last to the next day’s afternoon with some spare power left.

The power-saving mode can prolong that amount of time but overall, the J7 Max is definitely a full-day smartphone.

However, at this price bracket, fast charging is absent, so you will have to wait for approximately two and a half hours for the phone to be fully charged.

Conclusion

Had it been for the poor performance, the J7 Max would definitely be the most desirable offer at a cheap price.

Other solid alternatives with similar price and decent cameras are the Moto G5 Plus and Xiaomi Redmi Note 4.

If you can stretch your budget a little bit more, the J7 Pro is not so bad of a choice with the same cameras and an AMOLED display.
