You can now lay your hands on the Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime (SM-G532G) in the Philippines.
The budget smartphone goes on sale starting February 18 and comes with a very affordable price of Php 5,990. The device will be available across Samsung Experience Stores and authorized dealers in the country.
For that amount you get a smartphone with LTE Category 4 capability and many more features. The Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime comes with a 5-inch TFT display with a resolution of 960 x 540 pixels and 220 ppi. The Galaxy J2 Prime is powered by a MediaTek MT6737T processor with Quad-core CPU clocked at 1.5GHz.
The choice of a MediaTek processor is a bit of a surprise because it is rare to find an MTK SoC in Samsung’s smartphones. Perhaps, the choice was precipitated by the desire to churn out affordable, pocket-friendly devices. Going further, the processor is backed by 1.5GB of RAM and there is 8GB of internal storage which can be ramped up via microSD slot up to 256GB.
