Samsung has refreshed its Galaxy J series for 2017 by launching the 2017 editions of the Galaxy J7 and the Galaxy J5 in Europe, joining the previously announced Galaxy J3. Clad in metal, both pack a Super AMOLED display - a 5.5-inch 1080p Full HD screen for the Galaxy J7 and a 5.2-inch 720p HD screen for the Galaxy J5. The Galaxy J7, in particular, also features some splash resistance through its IP54 rating. Their Home key is also home to a fingerprint scanner. Both phones rely on a USB Type-C port for charging.

Battery capacity is rated at 3,600 mAh for the Galaxy J7 and 3,000 mAh for the Galaxy J5, which seems more than sufficient.

Connectivity-wise, LTE and dual-SIM support are available. The Galaxy J5 will retail for €280 while the Galaxy J7 will set you back €340. Both will become available in June/July 2017.
