Samsung ushers in 2018 with discounts on Galaxy Note FE, J7+ and J7 Pro

Samsung Galaxy Note FE

Happy New Year! This first post of 2018 also carries some great news. Samsung Malaysia is throwing enticing deals your way with the headliner being the excellent Galaxy Note Fan Edition (FE) for MYR400 off (SRP: MYR2,599).

That’s not all. The selfie-centric Galaxy J7+ and Galaxy J7 Pro (2017) also get delicious price cuts. Here’s the price list. The new pricing is effective starting 1 January 2018.

  • Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition – MYR2,199 (MYR2,599)
  • Samsung Galaxy J7+ – MYR1,299 (was MYR1,299)
  • Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro – MYR1,099 (was MYR1,199)

Launched at the end of October, the Galaxy Note FE, IMHO, is the best alternative (and wallet-friendly) to the cutting-edge Galaxy Note8. The Fan Edition device features all the great things about the Galaxy Note7, and even in 2018, will hold its own against the flagships.

It gets a smaller and safe 3,200mAh internal battery, and has Bixby support out of the box.

Running Android Nougat, the Galaxy Note FE rocks a 5.7-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display with dual-curve edges, a powerful Exynos 8890 chipset, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

On the camera front, it packs a stunning 12MP f/1.7 aperture main shooter, with a 5MP selfie-shooter.

The Galaxy J7+ on the other hand offers a 5.5-inch Full HD Super AMOLED display and is powered by a MediaTek Helio P20 chip with 4GB RAM and 32GB of storage. A 3,000mAh battery keeps it juiced. It gets a dual-camera system with a 13MP f/1.7 + 5MP f/1.9 suited for Live Focus depth of field effects. The front isn’t shabby either, a big 16MP f/1.9 shooter.

Finally, the Galaxy J7 Pro (2017) sports a 5.5-inch Full HD Super AMOLED display. It’s powered by an Exynos 7870 processor mated to 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. Camera wise, it features a 13MP f/1.7 main shooter with a 13MP f/1.9 unit up front. It has a larger 3,600mAh battery compared to the J7+.
