Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Neo


Samsung launched a new budget smartphone model in South Africa called the Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Neo. It’s has a 4.3 inch Super AMOLED Display, 4G LTE connectivity, 5 MP camera, 1.5 GHz quad core processor, 1 GB of RAM and a 1,900 mAh battery. It has an official price of 2,319 Rand or around ₱ 7,500.00.

While the Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Neo is merely an entry level smartphone, it’s nice to see that it still uses Super AMOLED technology for a superior display compared to a TFT panel. However, the 5 MP camera and 1,900 mAh battery are two of the biggest concerns. These will result in subpar pictures and short battery life despite the Ultra Power Saving Mode.

It’s not yet clear if Samsung Philippines will offer the Galaxy J1 Ace Neo in the Philippines.
