Other notable specs are dual Nano SIM with LTE connectivity, fingerprint sensor, 3,300mAh non-removable battery and runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
In India, it retails for 18,790 Indian Rupee or about 13.6K in Philippine currency, so expect local SRP to be in the same range. By the way, the Galaxy J7 2016 now sells for Php12,990 (from Php14,990), which simply means the Prime will have a higher price tag.
