The Galaxy J5 2016 will now sport a Php10,999 SRP, a thousand pesos off its original price. Meanwhile, the bigger Galaxy J7 2016 will also bear a deeper price cut, now available in stores for Php12,990 from its earlier Php14,990 SRP.

We’ve also learned that other Samsung devices are up for grabs at lesser prices:

  • Samsung Gear S2 R7320 (Limited Edition Gold/Platinum) – now Php16,490
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab A 2016 – now Php8,990 (from Php9,990)
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 3V 3G – now Php5,990

Samsung’s Early Christmas Sale started last September 1 with no specific end date, which could mean that these price cuts are permanent. More as we get it.
