The Korean Samsung arrives to revolutionize the entry range with its most basic mobile. The Jalaxy J2 Core is announced, an economic terminal, about 80 euros, which includes a 5-inch screen, 1 GB of RAM and Android GO, the special edition of the operating system for mobile phones with few resources. Do you want to know it? We tell you the information, its key points and its price.
The main feature of this terminal is its software. It is the first time that Samsung launches a mobile with Android Go, specifically in its version 8.0 (it will soon update to Android 9.0) Android Go is nothing more than a shortened version of Android. Android Go takes up much less space on internal storage and manages less RAM and autonomy. In addition, it has Go applications, which are shorter versions of classic apps. Although they still have the same utility as those of a normal mobile, they do not have animations and are limited to basic functions, without extras that can slow down the terminal.

5-inch screen and 2,600 mAh battery
The Galaxy J2 Core has a 5-inch screen with a resolution of 960 x 540 pixels. The panel is LCD. Inside we find an Exynos 7570 processor, a chip manufactured by Samsung itself with four cores and accompanied by 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage. The main camera is a single lens, with a resolution of 8 megapixels and an aperture of f / 2.2. On the other hand, the front camera dedicated to selfies drops to 5 megapixels, but maintains the focal length f / 2.2. Finally, it has a 2,600 mAh battery, enough capacity to move a 5-inch screen with that resolution. In addition, we remember that the Android version also helps in optimizing autonomy.
The design of the Samsung Galaxy J2 Core is not surprising. Samsung continues in the line of the entry range with a compact device, with basic finishes and a beautiful and comfortable design. We see a polycarbonate rear, with a camera in the central area that is accompanied by an LED flash. In the right area is the main speaker, something already seen in other entry-level mobiles the company. It may not be the most correct location, but when it comes to playing games or watching movies, we don't shut the speaker with our finger. Below we have the Samsung logo. As for the front, this mobile does not follow the trends of this 2018. We do not see panoramic screen or minimal frames. Just a lower frame with the Samsung logo and an upper frame with the camera, sensors and earpiece for calls.
Price and availability
Samsung has announced this device in India as it will primarily be intended for that market. Even so, it is likely to reach other countries. For now we will have to wait for confirmation from the company. On the other hand, its price has not yet been announced . It is estimated that it will cost just over 80 euros. Of course, they are unofficial figures and change, so the price could change in the different markets.
