Samsung Galaxy J official in Taiwan

The device that Samsung teased with a video the other day, the Samsung Galaxy J, has been unveiled in Taiwan. The video, which didn't mention the name of the device except for a small model number, was originally hoped to be the Samsung Galaxy S5. Not that there is anything wrong with the Samsung Galaxy J. The device has been called the love child between the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and if you're looking for well spec'd lineage, you can't do better than having those two phones as parents.

The Samsung Galaxy J is equipped with a 5 inch Super AMOLED screen with resolution of 1080 x 1920. Driving Miss Daisy is a quad-core 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU with 3GB of RAM on board along with 32GB of native storage. The 13MP rear snapper offers 4K video capture and there is a front-facing 1.9MP camera. A 2600mAh cell powers the whole shebang. With Android 4.3 installed out of the box, the device brings support for the Galaxy Gear smartwatch and enterprise security app Samsung KNOX. The model also supports 4G LTE connectivity.

No word yet on pricing or when we might see this model launched in Taiwan.
