Android Go has been a controversial topic for many, as the Google’s program to bring good phones on budget haven’t been doing so good in doing just that with many phones such as Nokia 1. Now, Samsung has joined the bandwagon with their own upcoming Android Oreo Go edition phone, the Samsung Galaxy J2 Core.

Nothing is official from Samsung’s side, but the phone has been spotted in Geekbench earlier today. Take a look at the Geekbench listing:

As you can see, the phone is powered by a 1.43Ghz quad core SoC. Which is reported to be Samsung’s own Exynos 7570 SoC. The phone scores a single core score of 625 & a multi core score of 1747.

Now, this is a budget centric phone and will be placed below current J2 2017 device in the market.

Also, it is to be seen that how the UI of the phone will be, especially since Samsung’s phone comes with their own custom skin, Experience UI. As other Android Go devices chose to remain stock, it needs to be seen if Samsung would also be doing that or slap their skin on top of stock Android go and make it even heavier.

Nothing much is know about the device as of now, we’ll be seeing more of the phone soon in leaks and rumours, stay tuned with us!

HMD Global has revealed earlier that they’re going to host a Nokia launch event, and teased the return of the “X” series of phones. We all thought this will be a higher end model as X could be “10”. But new reports suggests otherwise.

So continuing the legacy of the X series, HMD global is all set to launch the all-new Nokia X6 on 27th of April. Now if you are wondering why the ‘X’, then this is to fill the gap between the Nokia 6 and the Nokia 7 Plus. Now getting into the technicalities, this device sports a 5.8-inch display which comes in 19:9 aspect ratio.

According to the sources, there will be two different variants of this device, the one which is powered by the Meditek Helio P60 processor and coupled with 4GB of RAM, and the other one which is powered by Snapdragon 636 and 6GB of RAM.

Now talking about the optics, the rear side of the device is equipped with a vertical dual rear camera setup which is placed vertically and comes with the ZEISS optics, just like every other Nokia phones launched recently.

The phone is reportedly priced at 1599 yuan (almost Rs.17K) for 4GB RAM variant and 1799 yuan (almost Rs.19K) for the 6GB RAM variant.

If you are wondering what’s so special about this device, just head over to Google and search for the Nokia X6. This was one of the best devices which Nokia has ever launched back then in the year 2009. Yet there is also another reason for launching a new device, that is because of the poor performance of the Lumia devices in terms of the overall sales. The official launch event is not so far, and we will keep you posted with all the latest updates in regards to this device.
