Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) specs leaked

New details regarding the upcoming Samsung J7 (2016) mid-ranger have surfaced on the web today, courtesy of the device's kernel code. While the display size hasn't exactly been specified, the leak does confirm that the handset is going to feature a 1080p resolution display

However, as revealed in the recent GFXBench listing, the smartphone will most likely launch with a 5.5-inch sized display, which seems to be a pretty popular size with most new mid-rangers. The smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm's msm8952 SoC (Snapdragon 617) according to the new leak, contradicting the GFXBench listing that pointed to a Snapdragon 650 SoC under its hood. More interestingly, the latest leak reveals the Galaxy J7 (2016) will come with a fingerprint sensor and a pretty large 4,300mAh capacity battery. The latest leak suggesting Samsung's upcoming flagship can last more than 17 hours when playing video at maximum screen brightness.

Super AMOLED is naturally expected, but if you want, you can try and find more details for yourself using the model number - ss_dsi_panel_S6E3FA3_AMS549JR01_FHD.

The new J7 will be powered by a Snapdragon 650 SoC (previously known as the SD 618). There is no mention of memory in the code, but we expect 3GB of RAM. The main camera looks to be a 13MP model with the Samsung S5K3L2XX sensor. The front shooter is reported as a 5MP one with a Samsung S5K5E3YX sensor, 1.1µm pixels, paired with a 23mm f/2.2 lens.

Interestingly enough, there are hints of a fingerprint reader on the Galaxy J7 (2016), which would definitely be a wonderful upgrade to the budget line. The rest of the known specs include a microSD card slot and a 4,300 mAh battery.
