The 2017 editions of the Galaxy J3 and J7 were priced at $149.99 and $219.99 respectively when they went on sale in late July of last year. So far, Samsung has yet to reveal pricing for the 2018 editions, but we expect them to be priced close to last year’s versions.

Today’s press release also had only a few details on each phone’s hardware specs. The new Galaxy J3 will have a 5-inch HD display, along with a 5MP F2.2 aperture front-facing camera and an 8MP F1.9 aperture rear camera.

The new Galaxy J7 will have a 5.5-inch HD display, along with a 13MP F1.9 aperture front-facing camera and a 13MP F1.7 aperture rear camera. The camera on both phones should be huge improvements compared to the ones on the 2017 Galaxy J3 and J7 phones.
