Samsung Galaxy J2 (2017) Performance and Software

Performance and Software

Under the hood, the Galaxy J2 (2017) runs on Android 7.0 (Nougat), powered by an Exynos 3475 Quad chipset. It features a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU alongside a Mali-T720 GPU. With 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage, the phone is clearly designed for light usage, such as calling, texting, and running basic apps. The inclusion of a dedicated microSDXC card slot allows users to expand storage, which is almost essential given the limited onboard memory. While it may struggle with multitasking and running more demanding apps, the device performs adequately for its intended basic operations.
