Samsung updates its J1 smartphone with Exynos chip

Samsung has decided to somewhat update its budget-oriented Galaxy J1 smartphone with a new Exynos processor. As a reminder the device came with a Spreadtrum processor that was then changed for a Marvell chip but apparently this was not enough.

The new version of the J1 is now known as SM-J120F and sports an Exynos 3475 processor with four cores at 1.3 GHz and ARM Mali-T720 graphics. The device also has 1 GB of RAM and 4 GB of internal memory as well as Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. There are two cameras as well – one rear at 5 MP and another front with 2 MP of sensitivity – and a 4.5-inch display at 800 x 480 pixels.

No word on when this smartphone will be in stores or how much it will cost.
