Samsung could release the Galaxy J5 2016 soon as the device gets Bluetooth SIG certification along with the Galaxy J7 (2016). International Business Times reported that the tentative launch date for the Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016) is set on June 17 this year.

Its final price may be higher than the amount recorded on the website which was Rs 17,031. The J5 (2016) was exported to India from South Korea to undergo testing.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow is expected to be the operating system for the Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016). However, a report from GFXBench said that the J5 (2016) will run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop instead.
