This model primarily I have purchased for using the secure folder offerd by Knox. Availability of knox is given in samsung website and product page. Seeing that only I have purchased  this model.However to my surprise  when i purchased and checked that feature was not available. Settings shows knox 3.7 is installed and while booting also it says about knox. But there is no knox secure folder feature similar to my On8 mobile which has knox.
 
 If the feature is not applicable, what feature of knox are given in these models may be explicitly mentioned in product page to avoid confusions. I already purchased believing that secure folder is there and further its not possible for me to go for next model now. Very much disappointed with that and I hope in future updates it will be provided.

It's an excellent feature wherein the secure folder acts like a different phone. It is easy to store any data in a secured manner , have seperate apps, lock apps etc., If many of the members requests for this feature, samsung may consider to incorporate in feature updates as confirmed by samsung customer care. Third party apps cannot be trusted like samsung to perform the features which are offered in secure folder.

It has knox but it doesn't support secure folder.Secure folder is for storing images and files like google drive.Your device supports knox.If found helpful pls accept as solution

The folder is not just for gallery. Inside the folder it acts like a different phone. It is easy to store transaction passwords, app locks, documents storage, seperate apps etc., None of these features are provided in this tab. In simple On8 mobile so many features are available with knox.

Several third party apps are available to perform the said features partially, but they cannot be fully trusted as samsung. I guess may be those features are not given inside India.
