(Update, September 7: And the handset’s official! Read our article: Samsung Galaxy J7 Core budget ‘gaming’ phone now official in PH.)

On deck, there’s a 5.5-inch, 720p display of AMOLED variety and a 5-megapixel selfie camera with f/2.2 aperture lens and LED flash. Round the back, you get a 13-megapixel camera with f/1.9 lens, while a 3000mAh battery keeps the lights on.

Powering the J7 Core is Samsung’s octa-core Exynos 7870 chipset, the same system-on-a-chip that the Galaxy J7 Prime and J7 Pro use.
