Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime leaked featuring fingerprint scanner, improved RAM, storage - BGR India

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime is expected to be the successor to the Galaxy J7 launched last year. Leaks suggest it could come with improvements like bigger RAM, more storage and fingerprint scanner as well.

Samsung’s known to bring out new and improved versions of existing smartphones and one of them to join the list is the Galaxy J7. This would be the third improved version of the Galaxy J7 as the first one was launched in July 2015 in India, while the 2016 version was launched in May. The J7 (2015) was launched at a price of Rs 14,999 and the J7 (2016) at a price of Rs 15,990. It is reported that the new and improved version of the Galaxy J7 will be launched as Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime, which doesn’t seem as a surprise considering it fits the Galaxy series.

New reports suggest that a few hardware improvements are expected to come with the Galaxy J7 Prime. To begin with, the Galaxy J7 Prime is expected to feature 3GB of RAM, which is a big improvement from the existing 1.5GB RAM on the Galaxy J7 and 2GB RAM on the Galaxy J7 (2016). The Galaxy J7 Prime will also sport an 8-megapixel selfie camera, as opposed to the 5-megapixel selfie snapper on the existing Galaxy J7 models. Another improvement is likely to be a fingerprint scanner that is expected to be embedded into the home button up front.

Apart from these, the Galaxy J7 Prime won’t be a whole lot different to look at compared to the existing Galaxy J7 smartphones. The rest of the specifications expected on the upcoming smartphone include a 5.5-inch display, 1.6GHz Exynos 7870 octa-core processor, and a 3,300mAh battery.

Samsung’s Galaxy J7 Prime is expected to first make its debut in Vietnam, but at the time of filing the story there is no official launch date. With the Galaxy J7 and Galaxy J7 (2016) priced at Rs 14,999 and Rs 15,990 respectively, we can expect the Galaxy J7 Prime to be priced around the same range as well.

To put the Galaxy J7 Prime’s leaked specs and features into perspective, last year’s Galaxy J7 came with a Super AMOLED HD display, while the original Galaxy J7 came with a TFT display. The RAM too was increased from 1.5GB on the 2015 variant to 2GB on the 2016 variant.

Samsung Galaxy J7 2016 Specs Review: Affordable Revamped Phone still Lacks of Key Features - University Herald

The larger handset of Samsung Galaxy J series received some improvements. Albeit no major changes, the revamped version does perform better. The 2016 edition of Galaxy J7 gets several upgrades and here's the review!

Samsung Galaxy J7 2016 Specs

The 2016 Galaxy J7 is a 5.5-inch smartphone (151.7 x 76 x 7.8 mm) with Super AMOLED screen and 720 x 1280 pixels resolution (267 ppi pixel density). You can expect a crisp display from these specs.

As always, Samsung smartphones have that premium feel when you hold them. Galaxy J7 is slim and sleek.

The handset reportedly received an upgrade in term of resolution as its predecessor only boast 720p. J7 is equipped with 13 MP rear camera and 5 MP front camera; both with LED Flash, GSM Arena reported. Samsung flagship captures great quality image

Under the screen, the J7 runs Android Marshmallow with 1.6 GHz octa-core processor with bigger RAM of 2GB and 16 GB internal storage (expandable up to 128 GB with MicroSD card). Other components include dual SIM card slots, 3G and 4G support and Bluetooth 4.1. Samsung Galaxy J7 is available in three colors: white, gold and pink.

 2 GB of RAM is considered small in this 3GB RAM era and the lack of fingerprint sensor makes the J7 one-small step behind its competition. And since this is Samsung's budget smartphone, you can't expect to use it with VR headset. It's got no Gyroscope.

Samsung packs Galaxy J7 with removable 3,300 mAh battery. Another demerit would be the absence of fast-charging feature which would be very useful in today's hurried lifestyle.

These 2016 edition is something that Samsung Galaxy fans have anticipated in its original version but apparently the Korean smartphone maker didn't bother to include some key features that's supposed to be there.

Samsung Galaxy J7 2016 price

The 2016 edition of Samsung Galaxy J7 is priced around $239
