Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition) out-of-the-box. There is currently no update on the pricing and launch timelines for this Samsung budget smartphone, but developments in the near future could point toward the same.

The unnamed Samsung smartphone with Android Go has been listed with model number SM-J260G/DS on the Wi-Fi Alliance site, suggesting it could be part of Samsung's entry-level J2 series of smartphones. This is in line with Samsung Galaxy J2 Core. Additionally, it means that the handset will arrive with dual-SIM . Other specifications mentioned on the Wi-Fi Alliance landing page include single-band Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and the presence of Wi-Fi Direct. Nothing else has been revealed in the minimal listing, first spotted by SamMobile.

As far as specifications go, we have a clear idea courtesy previous reports. According to the leak, the Samsung entry-level smartphone will sport a 5-inch Super AMOLED display alongwith the octa-core Samsung Exynos 7570 SoC. Other features include 16GB of internal storage, an 8-megapixel rear camera sensor, a 5-megapixel front sensor, a 2600mAh battery, and, now, Android Oreo (Go edition). We could expect the smartphone to run Go versions of apps like Google Maps, YouTube, Google, apart from Facebook Lite.

The Samsung smartphone with model number SM-J260G is said to be in testing in markets including the Asian markets of India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and Vietnam.
