Samsung’s midrange, flagship-like smartphone is coming to the Philippines. The Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro looks like a pretty promising device just by looking at its spec sheet — a set of features that can pass as a flagship entry to other brands.
The Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro brags a large 5.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. This thing also rocks a 1.6GHz Exynos 7870 octa-core processor with a generous 3GB of RAM. There’s also a decent 32GB of RAM that can be expandable up to 256GB.
And as what it seems like a smartphone to play against the trendy devices, the Galaxy J7 Pro has a 13-megapixel selfie camera. It also boasts a fingerprint scanner, Android Nougat OS, and a large 3600mAh battery.
