Samsung may offer a (slightly impossible) answer for you if you’re worried about your preoccupation with the internet and cellphones. The South Korean company has unveiled the Galaxy J2 Pro, a new smartphone that only supports the most fundamental features, including as calling, texting, and taking images with the camera, and does not connect to the internet.
The Galaxy J2 Pro is unable to connect to Wi-Fi and lacks compatibility for popular cellular data connectivity choices like Edge, 3G, or 4G LTE.
According to Samsung, the smartphone is an effort to lessen the distractions that users experience when using their phones, such as for students during exams.
Samsung argues that it is also appropriate for elderly people who may find the abundance of apps and other internet-dependent features of new smartphones confusing.
But there is one usage for the J2 Pro. Diodict 4, an offline dictionary app that displays translations between Korean and English, is pre-installed on the device. This phone is currently only available in Korea, as you would have predicted.
The Galaxy J2 Pro has a 1.4GHz quad-core processor and 1.5GB of RAM as part of its technical features. In addition to the 16GB internal storage, there is a detachable 2,600mAh battery and a microSD slot. A 5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 960 540 is available on the smartphone. For those pictures you don’t want to post online, it has an 8-megapixel camera on the back and a 5-megapixel one on the front.
