The Galaxy J2 follows a simple recipe - cut corners wherever possible, but keep user experience as solid as possible. Samsung has been in this particular kitchen far too long and this latest dish isn’t undercooked.
It all starts with a solid foundation that is the in-house made Exynos 3475 chipset and 1GB of RAM. This configuration runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop effortlessly and secures 4G data speeds - although it does skimp on the FullHD video recording. The user experience is delivered on a 4.7 Super AMOLED panel - an adequate size for a 2015 smartphone and you know us - we’re suckers for AMOLED technology.
Where the Galaxy J2 falls short is the resolution of the said screen. It is a qHD one ( 960 x 540 pixels) and we sure hope it’s not a deal breaker in this price range. Let’s check out what else you’re getting for the money.
