Over the past few weeks, a new set of Samsung Galaxy devices is making brief appearances online. Previously we saw the leaked images of the Galaxy A5 2017 post which we spotted the Galaxy A3 2017 as well online. And now yet again, the Galaxy A3 2017 has been spotted online showing off some of the specs which it will come with. Yes, this time, the Samsung Galaxy A3 2017 has made a brief appearance on Geekbench website. Now talking about the specs of this smartphone, this unit which carries a model number SM-A320F carries an Exynos 7870 chipset under the hood.

This is an octa-core CPU which is clocked at 1.59GHz. It also packs 2GB of RAM and it runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box as well. That's all the specs we have to be reported from this recent spotting. Well, with these set of specs, the device managed to put a single-core score of 751 and a multi-core score of 4071. The score appears to be decent enough for the smartphone which is targetted towards the mid-ranged budget-centric market. And as far as the other specs go, from the past rumours we have learned that it will come with a 4.7-inch display with a 720 x 1280 (HD) resolution.

And judging by the last gen's variant, we can also expect it to come with decent camera optics as well. And talking about the last year's variant, it is worth noting that the A3 2016 was launcehd back in December 2015 and hence we will not be surprised if this smartphone is officially hitting the streets by next month.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m

Why do Android fanboys hate admitting that Samsung copied Apple?

It's impossible to cover the mobile market without diving into the good ol' "iOS vs. Android" debate from time to time. These are the two biggest mobile platforms on the planet, so they're constantly being compared. Likewise, Samsung and Apple are the world's top two smartphone vendors, so their phones are constantly pitted against each other as well. Of course, there's another reason Apple and Samsung are often mentioned in the same breath: after entering the market, Samsung quickly grew to become the top mobile device maker on the planet thanks in large part to Apple. First, Samsung did everything it possibly could to copy Apple's iPhone and iPad. Then, it spent billions upon billions of dollars belittling Apple products in TV, online, and print advertising. Samsung spent years positioning its own devices as the cool alternative to Apple's iPhone, and its efforts paid off big time. Even now, Samsung continues to copy Apple all the time acro
