Claim to fame was its Super AMOLED display. The rest of its hardware was extremely unimpressive, and the J2 flew under the radar as a result. It wasn’t very widely available either, but according to Samsung, it went on to become the best-selling Galaxy smartphone, at least in the Indian market.
Still, it is surprising to see that the Korean manufacturer has put so much work behind the Galaxy J2 ( 2016) , the successor to the Galaxy J2. Samsung hasn’t made major changes to the hardware, but the device is special because of its Smart Glow notification ring, a feature developed by Samsung India as an alternative to a regular notification LED. Samsung has also put in what it calls Turbo Speed Technology ( TST) , a fancy name for software optimization the company says improves performance despite the underpowered hardware ticking away inside.
