Samsung has officially launched Galaxy J7 Duo in India for a price of Rs 16,990. The smartphone will be available from the 12th of April in Black and Gold colours via offline retail stores. Considering the price tag, the smartphone will compete against the Nokia 6 2018, which retails in India for Rs 16999.
Samsung Galaxy J7 Duo Specs
The Samsung Galaxy J7 Duo has a 5.5 inch Super AMOLED display with 1280 x 720 px resolution. The smartphone has a plastic build with user replaceable back panel, which reveals a 3000 mAh battery. The device is powered by the Exynos 7 series Octa-core chipset with 4GB RAM and 32GB onboard storage. The storage is expandable up to 256GB using micro SD card on a dedicated micro SD card slot.
The smartphone has a dual camera setup with a 13MP primary sensor and a 5MP secondary sensor, with both boasting an f/1.9 aperture. The device has an 8MP front-facing camera with an f/1.9 aperture with 1080p video recording capability. The main camera unit can capture portrait photos which soften the background by keeping the subject in focus. The device runs on Samsung’s custom Experience UI based on Android 8 Oreo. The device has a forward facing fingerprint sensor, mounted on the home button.
At a cost of Rs 16,990, the Galaxy J7 Duo has an archaic 16:9 aspect ratio and a 720P display. The likes of Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro and Honor 7X have an 18:9 aspect ratio and 2160 x 1080 px resolution. The presence of a dual-camera and the perception attached to the Samsung brand might help the J7 Duo on the market. It is also worth noting that the Galaxy J7 Duo will be much easier to buy and will be more accessible than the likes of Redmi Note 5 Pro.
