A fresh piece of news from Neurogadget claims that Galaxy J7 2017 will be coming to US via AT&T. Famous tipster Evan Blass also said that other major carriers like Verizon and US Cellular will also be selling the flagship.

This information is an update from the previous leak which suggests that Galaxy J7 2017 has obtained FCC certification. The said device also made a trip to India for testing after it's spotted in Zauba website. At this point, it is safe to assume that everything is set for the J-series flagship to launch.

Specs-wise, Galaxy J7 2017 will reportedly come with Android Nougat pre-installed. It is expected to have Snapdragon 625 chip, and 2 GB of RAM on board with 13 MP/5MP in the optics department.

To put into perspective, the 2016's edition packs Snapdragon 617 chip and 3,300 mAh battery. Android Community has learned that Samsung refreshes the build and design for every flagship every year - hence, the J7 2017's edition should sport a slightly better hardware setup and sleeker appearance compared to its predecessor.
