Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Neo Now Official with Quad Core Chip, Super AMOLED Display and 4G LTE Connectivity

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, 5MP camera, 1.5GHz quad core processor, 1GB of RAM and a 1900mAh 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 5MP camera and 1900mAh 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 here in the Philippines.
