Yesterday, we reported that Samsung was working on a 7-inch smartphone called the Galaxy J Max, and, lo and behold, 24-hours later it has announced the device in India. Judging by the renders, the handset follows the same design language as the Galaxy J1, Galaxy J2, Galaxy J3, Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7 , with a flash, camera module and […]
Samsung has today taken the wraps of the latest addition to its rapidly-growing Galaxy J lineup in China. We first heard about this handset, which carries the moniker Galaxy J3 Pro, five days ago when it appeared in a batch of leaked press renders showcasing its design, and we quickly came to the conclusion that it's […]
The first generation of Samsung's Galaxy J3 was launched in China a little over half a year ago. Since then, the device has gradually spread across the rest of the world, only recently making it all the way to the US. Now, back in China, a new version of the phone is ready to be launched. […]
Customers in the United States can purchase the Galaxy J3 (2016) through Sprint as well as prepaid carriers Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile. Since all three are CDMA carriers the handset can't be used on GSM networks like AT&T and T-Mobile. Those who would like to use the Galaxy J3 (2016) on GSM networks can […]
The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge feature brilliant rear-facing cameras, but their front cameras didn't see any upgrade over the ones found on last year's Samsung flagships (well, except for reduced aperture for increased low-light performance). Samsung did, however, add a nice little software-based flash option for taking selfies. Turning the flash on makes […]
The Galaxy J3 (2016) is already available in the United States through Boost and Virgin Mobile but the handset is yet to be launched by a major carrier. Three weeks ago we reported that AT&T might launch the handset in the near future. AT&T has now confirmed that the Galaxy J3 (2016) will indeed be […]
Nearly three months before we would have expected them, Samsung has made the Galaxy J5 (2016) and Galaxy J7 (2016) official in China. The phones are listed on the company's website, and as the leaks had confirmed, the J5 (2016) and J7 (2016) come with a metal frame and considerably improved specs over their original […]
Samsung Internet version 4.0 was released about two months ago, it brought several new features including but not limited to support for adblocking extensions and popup video player. The app has now been updated with support for older Galaxy devices and it finally brings these features to those devices. The full list of supported devices has been […]
Samsung has traditionally released new Galaxy Note handsets at the IFA trade show in the fall but it has sort of become a tradition for the rumor mill to predict that this time around the flagship handset will arrive a bit earlier. This rumor is rehashed at the start of every year when the new […]
Samsung is almost ready to release the Galaxy J3 (2016) in Italy, Spain, Germany and The Netherlands. More European countries are likely to follow. The Galaxy J3 (2016) is of course not a new device. In fact, it made its debut in China several months ago. More recently, evidence of a US release with AT&T surfaced, […]
The Galaxy J3 (2016) hasn't seen much attention since its launch in China. The device has gone under the radar, and Samsung has launched it in a very limited number of markets. Prepaid US operators Boost and Virgin Mobile had announced that they would be selling the J3 (2016), and the phone now seems to […]
We're still a couple of months away from the time the Galaxy J5 and Galaxy J7 would have been on the market for a year, but it looks like their successors could make an early debut. The Galaxy J5 (2016) and Galaxy J7 (2016) have been popping up here and there since January this year, and […]
After quietly introducing the Galaxy J1 (2016) in Dubai two months ago, Samsung has launched it in Russia along with the Galaxy J1 mini.

The Galaxy J5 (2016) and the Galaxy J7 (2016) have been certified by TENAA, China's telecom equipment certification authority. Both devices look largely similar to their predecessors, the Galaxy J5 and the Galaxy J7. These mid-range smartphones run Android 5.1 Lollipop as of now, but the new Galaxy J7 was spotted with Android 6.0.1 before so this might change […]
