A new Galaxy J series handset is the subject of a new leak just exposed by Slashleaks. According to the info, the J series handset was found on Geekbench revealing key hardware info of the phone. The handset has model number J805G and is believed to be the Galaxy J8 Plus.
If the benchmarks are correct than the upcoming device should be equipped with a Snapdragon 625, which is a tried and tested CPU. The 1.8GHz octa-core chipset will be backed by 4GB of RAM in case of this handset. The benchmark reveals Android Oreo runs on the phone which is always a good thing. Especially considering Samsung’s record of shipping mid-range phones with older versions of Android.
