On the other hand, the Galaxy J4 is a low-end model. It is said to feature a smaller 5.5-inch HD screen, 1.4GHz Exynos 7570 processor, 3,000mAh battery, 13MP rear primary camera, 5MP shooter on the front, dual-SIM slots, and 4G-LTE (Cat. 4) support.
Like the J6, the J4 will also be offered in different RAM + storage options. It will be available in 2GB/3GB RAM and 16GB/32GB storage.
Considering the recent full-fledged specification leak, it looks like we don't have to wait long. Samsung usually retails Galaxy J series in emerging markets and is expected to release first in India, where it is facing a stiff challenge from Xiaomi with its Redmi series phones.
