Description

The Samsung Galaxy J3 (2018) is nothing different from the previous generation J phone. With a 5-inch HD display, quad-core processor and 16GB storage. Strangely, the phone an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, despite the fact that the Galaxy J3 (2017) has a better 13-megapixel snapper.

This device is also known as Samsung SM-J337A, Samsung Galaxy Express Prime 3, Samsung Galaxy J3 V (2018), Samsung SM-J337V, Samsung Galaxy J3 Achieve, Samsung SM-J337P, Samsung Galaxy J3 Star, Samsung SM-J337U
