On the camera side, we have two 13-megapixel cameras on the front and back. Drawing inspiration from the design of the latest Samsung smartphones, the Galaxy J7 Pro also sports a slim metal unibody with the fingerprint reader and home button placed at the chin of the phone.
So, that was spec-wise, here are some of the features that make the Samsung Galaxy J7 Max stand out.
Above, the Galaxy J7 Max sports a 13-megapixel camera both front and rear, with an aperture value of f/1.9 and f/1.7 respectively. However, the best use of the already powerful camera is the Social Camera .
Featured as an industry first , the social camera allows you to share and edit photos instantly. All you have to do is pin your favorite contacts or social media platforms (in the camera) and share the images by clicking. Moreover, it even has built-in stickers that were previously only available in its flagship device, the Galaxy S8.
In addition, you will also be able to leave a social footprint with your camera via the Discover characteristic. Head to the social mode of the camera and activate the location, after which you will see an overview of all the places nearby, whether it is a good cafe or a shopping destination.Another cool feature of the J7 Max is the Secure Folder option. Available in Advanced Features , this one allows you to create a secure vault in the phone.
For example, if you want to lock an image or document, open said object, tap the three-dot menu and tap Move to Secure Folder . You have the option to choose when the secure app locks.
With the introduction of Samsung Pay in March this year, it was only natural that Samsung would introduce these seamless features to its other models as well.
Galaxy J7 Max sports a scaled down version of Samsung Pay – Samsung Pay Mini where you won't be able to add your cards, but you will get a full platform for making e-wallets and UPI payments.
The Galaxy J7 Max is the first Samsung smartphone to have this feature and Samsung will gradually make it available on existing J series smartphones.

If you are a camera savvy person, then you will love this feature. The Samsung Galaxy J7 Max also packs a medium flash to go with the front camera, aka the selfie camera.
So the next time you find yourself in a dimly lit place, don't worry, the front flash has you covered.
The Samsung Smart Glow feature, launched with the Galaxy J2 in 2016, has also made way for the Galaxy J7 Max. This smart light can be used to give priority alerts, usage alerts as well as to help take selfies via the rear camera.
Also, if you keep your phone face down, you can assign different shades of colors to your favorite contacts, so you can recognize the caller at a glance.
Beyond that, Smart Glow also packs a nifty option called Snoop Alert . This option is very useful when you give your phone to someone else and they try to navigate to another app/page. If you ask me, sneaky way to catch a scammer, right?
