Model number SM-J530FM or Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 just showed up on Geekbench revealing some of the key specs for the handset.
A Samsung Exynos 7870 octa-core chipset commands the J5 2017 together with 2GB of RAM. The earlier Wi-Fi certification revealed an Android 6.0 Marshmallow version but this time, it runs on Android 7.0 Nougat.
Similar to the J5 2016, it’s highly likely that the J5 2017 is a 5.2-inch handset with 720p Super AMOLED display. This, to keep the cost affordable.
