I got EXTREMELY frustrated with the LG Stylo I had purchased just 2 months earlier (ugh, don't buy THAT phone!) so I had to cut my losses and find something else. I really wanted a Samsung Galaxy because the SIII I had for nearly 3 years had served me do well. (I dropped it and broke the screen finally). I went in to Best Buy and the sales associate told me about this phone. I was originally looking at the J3 but she talked me in to the J7. I have loved it from the get-go. Great camera, great sound and battery life. I love the screen size (after 40 the numbers get blurry people!) and it feels sturdy in my hand. Now I've only had it for 2.5 months, but I really like it. I would recommend this phone for sure!

I bought this phone not expecting much but I am actually impressed on how well it functions. Photos taken while in messenger is quite poor, while the actual camera feature isn't that bad. Over a duration of use, you will notice the phone starting to get warm (which seems like the norm for these devices). Kids play Minecraft and other games on this with no problem. Battery life is surprisingly good too. I can be on the internet all day on this phone with phone calls and taking pictures and it could last all the way into late night.

After 3 months, I'm extremely pleased with the Samsung J7 on Boost Mobile. It's a budget-priced phone, but has all the features I wanted, and is well-designed and performs well. Works great for web, email, streaming audio and video (in addition to voice & text).
I got a good sale price at Best Buy. Also, the Boost service plan (Sprint network) is a real deal - just $30/mo. with auto-pay. Highly recommended!
Major pluses: Large screen, sharp display, highly responsive, good hi-res camera, decent sound, plenty of RAM and disk space, accommodates large micro SD card, Android Marshmallow 6.0 and Samsung reliability..All for a budget price, on a low-cost network.
Small drawbacks: Overall phone size is a bit large (6" x 3"), no LED indicator for charging/messages, and speaker is on back side. But those are minor quibbles.

I bought this phone a month ago and still runs flawless, but the specs in the bestbuy page are messed up, it has 720 p screen HD but not full HD 8 cores 1.4 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, 13 MP rear camera with auto focus 5 MP selfie front camera both with LCD flashes.
Both cameras are good, the response time of the phone is fast and the battery life is awesome i watched netflix for 10 straight hours and the battery still had like 15% and the temperature never rised too high either.
Im not an expert in the phone area for me listening music,watching videos and receive and make phone calls are enough and this phone its exactly what i needed.
One negative point for me: it doesnt have screen mirroring option, my 3 years older and cheaper phone has this option i dont know why this one dont but overall good phone for the price

The screen size, speed, memory and camera are all great. When it comes to the cons well it doesnt have a notification light but you can download an app for the flashlight as a notification light, hard to find a case, no video calling unless is from a 3rd party app. Overall a great phone and great price.

This phone is designed and assembly very nicely, has great speed, memory, camera. For the price there's no phone to compare for the price, over all i believe this phone falls between a samsung s5 to s6. If your on the fence on which to buy you wont be disappointed with the J7.

The bigger screen is really nice, and it's not oversized or bulky. Picture quality is amazing. If you're looking for the best on the market, at a third of the cost, here it is. This premium phone will catch people's attention. It's powerful and chic. Don't spend more, spend smart.

I actually bought two of these phones. One for me and one for my husband. We upgraded from the S3. I like it for the bigger screen. We were able to download the smart switch app and move everything from the old phone to the new one. My calls are always clear. The battery has excellent charge life.

The Galaxy J700p (Boost Mobile) was steal at $99.00. Fast processor, 16GB of internal storage , clear display, 13MP camera,. Battery holds a charge all day - 3000mAh. Better than my iPhone 5s and HTC Desire 510.
One week old at time of review.

I did a lot of research that lead me to purchase the J7, and it was the right decision. At the time, I paid about $150 for this phone, and it performs on par with much higher priced models. Years later I own an S7 (Only because my kids eventually damaged the charging port on my J7 and it wasn't worth the money to fix it), and I can honestly say that aside from a few extra features on the S7, the J7 performed just as well. Crisp, clear calls, decent camera, fast processor, good screen quality and 16 gigs of internal memory, which is nearly unheard of at this price point. If you want excellent quality in a lower priced Samsung phone, I recommend the J7 in a heartbeat.

This is a prettt nuce phone. I replaced my samsung galaxy s4 with it and I must say it's a heck of a lot better. Does everything I need to to do. Only complaints I have is the fact that I have no indication light for texts, emails or charging and the fact that I no longer have my S Beam. I was told it was a way better phone than my S3 and S4 yet, my S3 had S Beam.
