Along the new Galaxy J3 and J5, the Korean smartphone brand also announced the new Samsung Galaxy J7 2017. This newcomer is the follow-up to last year’s Galaxy J7 and J7 Prime — Samsung’s mid-range line-up of smartphones.
The new phone now offers an all-metal design and a fingerprint sensor. Furthermore, it’s also packed with a beefy 1.6GHz octa-core Exynos 7870 processor. The in-house chipset has a spacious 3GB of RAM for all your multitasking needs.
The device also flaunts a large and sharp 5.5-inch 1080p display, 13-megapixel sensors from the front and back, and the updated Android 7.0 Nougat. Powering everything up is a 3600mAh non-removable battery.
