The Samsung Galaxy On Max is a J7 Max without the Smart Glow camera light

Samsung has launched a new smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy On Max in its Galaxy On series in India. The Galaxy On Max is very similar to the Galaxy J7 Max which was launched not long ago in the same country.

In fact, the only notable difference between the two smartphones is the absence of the Smart Glow light around the rear camera module in the Galaxy On Max.
