Samsung introduced a beefed-up variant of the Galaxy J7 (2016) in Vietnam last week. The Galaxy J7 Prime offers higher memory, a better front-facing camera, a metal unibody, and a fingerprint scanner over the Galaxy J7 (2016). Now, the South Korean smartphone giant is prepping to launch the device in India.
According to the usually reliable Indian mobile phone retailer Manish Khatri, Samsung will soon launch the Galaxy J7 Prime in India with a MOP of INR 18,790 ($282). The device will be sold alongside the Galaxy J7 (2016) and the Galaxy J7. The Galaxy J7 Prime features a 5.5-inch 1080p display, a 13-megapixel primary camera with 1080p video recording, an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 3,300 mAh battery.
It runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, and features dual-SIM card slot, LTE, Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth, NFC, and a microUSB port. The Galaxy J7 Prime that is being sold in Vietnam comes with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage, but Samsung has decided to limit the internal storage to just 16GB in the Indian variant for some reason. Why do you do this, Samsung?
