Samsung Galaxy J2 DTV 


The Samsung Galaxy J2 DTV now available for purchase. The device is currently being sold in the Philippines, where it carries a price tag of PHP 6,990 (around US$ 150).

Specs-wise, the handset is powered by a quad-core 1.3 GHz processor and sports a 4.7-inch qHD display. It comes with 1 GB RAM and 8 GB of expandable internal memory, and packs in a 2,000 mAh battery.

The phone features a 5 MP main unit and a 2 MP front shooter. Measuring 136.5 x 69 x 8.4 mm and weighing in at 130 grams, it offers dual-SIM support and runs Android Lollipop OS.

What makes the Galaxy J2 DTV different from other budget Samsung smartphones is that it comes with a Digital TV tuner, allowing users to watch broadcast television from anywhere in the country.

It's worth mentioning that the aforementioned key feature won't work in the US or Europe because of the difference in standards for free-to-air broadcast TV in these regions and the Philippines.
