If you’ve started to find Samsung’s alphabet soup of entry-level and mid-range phones pretty much as confusing as the company’s old product lineup and its respective branding, it seems as though the market-leading OEM has similar issues keeping track of A or J-series releases.Case in point, the upcoming Galaxy J2 (2016), aka SM-J210, benchmarked through AnTuTu, GFX Bench and Geekbench with specs reminiscent of the J3 (2016) that barely saw daylight last fall in China,

Unlike the Galaxy A family, last year’s J series managed to easily set itself apart from Samsung’s flagship models, with appreciably lower-end specs, inferior build materials and palatable price tags. As a consequence of especially that last part, the first-gen J5 and J7 achieved sleeper hit status, helping the OEM retain its domination over all other smartphone manufacturers even in emerging markets.The two’s somewhat unexpected success also warranted premature sequels,

Samsung probably missed the optimal window for announcing its latest additions to the mid-range Galaxy J smartphone family, as the J5 (2016) and especially the J7 (2016) garnered decent buzz at one point in the rumor mill.But in recent weeks, the hype slowly waned, and so ultimately, the world-leading Korean OEM decided to go with a simple, quiet, low-key introduction of the two devices on the company’s ...

Mid-rangers have been the filler for this part of the month, but they’re pretty important bread and butter in terms of making money for their manufacturers. Take LG smashing more of its K-series this month. But just a letter up the alphabet is the J-series from Samsung. And there’s been a big show and tell performance.First off, if you like leaked renders, check out ...

2015 wasn’t a great year for Samsung smartphone sales, but while flagships underwhelmed at the global box-office, a few mid-rangers over performed. The Galaxy J5 and J7 in particular developed a cult following among cash-strapped Android enthusiasts in emerging markets, standing out with solid overall quality-price ratios and LED flash-endowed selfie cameras.Now it’s almost time for the two’s sequels, and if you were wondering whether they’d offer a similarly “original” selling ...

Samsung is planning to follow up on one of its biggest 2015 revelations just seven or eight months after the commercial debut of the first-generation Galaxy J5, but contrary to what you might have hoped, the low-cost sequel doesn’t look very… special on paper.If priced correctly, the Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016) could still make it, though its benchmarked specifications simply feel too similar to those of the original. No Full HD screen resolution upgrade in the cards, no jump to a Snapdragon 615 or 617 ...

2015 has been a year of radical transformation for the previously monotonous Samsung Galaxy family, both as far as flagships and lower-end devices are concerned. But continuous change can be tricky, pricey and, in a way, risky, so by the looks of things, 2016 will be a year of much safer bets.The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge should greatly resemble their predecessors from an aesthetical standpoint, a
