It has Gorilla Glass 4.0, a 5.5-inch screen, 3,300mAh and just 8mm thin. Don&#8217;t bother to find the specs here. Samsung did not provide. I got it from other websites. Their website is also not updated (as of this writing).<\/p>\n<p>Here are highlights of the Galaxy J7 Prime provided by Samsung PR.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Galaxy J7 Prime<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The Galaxy J7 Prime boasts a breathtaking design \u2013 its<strong>\u00a0metal finish and curved back\u00a0<\/strong>provides a luxurious chic look while equipped with\u00a0<strong>strong 2.5D Corning\u00ae Gorilla\u00ae Glass 4<\/strong>, offering improved durability to the smartphone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Enhanced with\u00a0<strong>Smart Camera<\/strong>\u00a0capabilities, the Galaxy J7 Prime allows users to capture the perfect shot.
