Prices leaked for Samsung Galaxy A5 and A7 2017 phones

More info about the upcoming 2017 editions of the Samsung Galaxy A5 and A7smartphones are coming into focus. The phones, which are expected to be officially announced on January 5, now have prices in Malaysia. The surprising part is they are a bit higher than one might expect from a mid-range phone.
The Galaxy A5 will be priced in that country at RM1,699, or about $378, while the Galaxy A7 will have a price point of RM1,899, or about $424. Samsung in Malaysia will throw in a free Level U Pro wireless headphone for people who pre-order the smartphones between January 6th and January 15th.
In addition, firmware for both phones are now available to download on Samsung’s servers, and the company’s Russian site already has the users manuals for the 2017 A3, A5 and A7  phones ready to download and read. Samsung has already confirmed that the 2017 Galaxy A series will be water resistant and now it has also confirmed they will be dust resistant as well.
Finally, ETNews is reporting that all of the new Galaxy A phones will have a 12MP front facing camera, rather than the standard 5MP camera that’s found on many phones, including the 2016 Galaxy A model. All in all, these models seem to be shaping up to be solid, but pricey, mid-range phones. We should get the official word from Samsung on these devices in less than a week.

EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE PIXEL 4, THE MOST-LEAKED PHONE EVER

Image
Google’s  Pixel 3 might have been the  most-leaked phone in history . Long before its unveiling, we knew practically everything about it from unboxing videos, photo comparisons, even a full review of the device. Surely, for the Pixel 4, Google would clamp down on leaks to leave some surprises for its debut on  October 15th , right? Let’s just say, if that was the plan, it didn’t exactly work out. We’ve now seen the Pixel 4 XL from every angle and in three different colors. At least seven different sources have touched this phone, many of them confirming the same specs. We not only know which cameras it’ll have, but also what they may be capable of, including air gestures (go figure). That doesn’t even count information Google has already shared  on purpose.

Others are some of our favorites that are still best-in-class despite having been around for some time now. We aim to do things differently at TNW, and as such you’re not going to find the recommendations you’re probably used to seeing: Gmail, Skype, Dropbox, and the like. Instead, we want to focus on the best-of-the-best that you may not have heard of, and others that are just special enough to warrant a mention. As always, we’d encourage you to share some of your favorites in the comments below, or on Facebook. Enlight Pixaloop (Free Pixaloop  is one of my favorite apps on the market.
