Re-engineered,
Re-designed and Re-loaded smartphones
§ Re-engineered with Turbo
Speed Technology: Samsung has
re-engineered J series with the introduction of Turbo Speed Technology (TST) in
Samsung Galaxy J2 2016. TST is a revolutionary innovation which results in
superior device performance including native apps loading up to 40% faster than
devices with double the RAM. Samsung has rewritten native apps such as camera,
gallery, and contacts, etc. that are most frequently used by consumers. It also
proactively shuts down idle processes running in the background and declutters
RAMusing its intelligent memory system to ensure resources like RAM and
processor are free and ready to take on new tasks, thereby extending fastest
in-class experience.
§ Re-designed with Smart
Glow: The innovative Smart Glow in
Galaxy J2 2016 is a next-gen color LED notification system. This feature has
been developed based on the insight that smartphones tend to get cluttered with
notifications. Smart Glow consists of an LED ring around the rear camera which
can be customized for priority notifications of any app or contact. While up to
four alerts can be set, consumers can create and choose their own color for the
Smart Glow. It also alerts a user if they are running low on battery, internal
memory, or mobile data. Users can also use the Smart Glow LED ring to position
the rear camera for higher mega-pixel selfieswith the Selfie Assist feature. This
is further complimented with a new Smart Notifier software feature which allows
customizable bucketing of notifications so that users never miss important
notifications.
§ Re-loaded with ‘Make for
India’ features:The latest Galaxy J2 2016 and J
Max smartphones come loaded with ‘Make for India’ innovations such as S bike
mode and Ultra Data Saving mode.
Samsung India had launched
industry first S bike mode, a dedicated bike mode that lets consumers ‘ride
tension free’ while encouraging responsible riding. This was based on the
insight that two-wheeler riders receive a lot of unimportant calls and
notifications while riding. The S bike mode’s urgent call alert system notifies
callers through an automated answering machine that the user is riding and is
unavailable to take calls. However, callers have the option to press 1 in case
the call is urgent. As a safety feature, the in-built motion lock ensures that the
rider has to come to a halt before they can answer the call.
The 'Ultra Data Saving' (UDS)
mode provides up to 50% mobile data savings by blocking unnecessary background
applications from consuming data. It also has a proprietary data compression
technology, which ensures the most cost-efficient 4G experience.
Vivid Display & Slim Design
Samsung Galaxy J2 2016 and J Max
provides an immersive experience with a 5” inch HD Super AMOLED screen and 7”
inch WXGA TFT LCD Screen (1280 X 800) respectively. Whether you are browsing
through photos, watching a video or surfing the web at blazing fast 4G speeds;
vibrant colors and the larger display brings life to the content and enhances
the viewing pleasure. Excellent contrast ratio produces superior imagery with
deeper blacks, brighter whites, and more vivid.
Measuring just 8mm, the Galaxy
J2 2016 is a sleek device which is further complemented by soft rounded edges
that ensure a comfortable grip. J Max is 8.7 mm slim, is light-weight with a
