Description
Samsung Galaxy J2 Core 2020 16 GB Black 4G LTE, New, GSM Unlocked
Black is the base finish of this new Samsung Galaxy J2 Core 2020 with 16GB, a 4G LTE Android Go phone, GSM Unlocked. Black is what prepaid counters and export buyers order in the largest quantity because it never has to be explained, and the 16GB capacity with a microSD slot is enough for a starter phone.
The Samsung Galaxy J2 Core (2020) is Samsung's Android Go phone for prepaid and emerging markets: a 5.0-inch qHD PLS TFT display, the Exynos 7570 quad-core chip, 1 GB of RAM with 16 GB of storage and a dedicated microSD slot, an 8 megapixel rear camera with autofocus and flash, a 5 megapixel front camera, and a removable 2,600 mAh battery, running Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition). The 2020 release doubled the storage of the 2018 original and kept the same light, pocketable body.
Prepaid and MVNO retailers, exporters, and institutional buyers take the J2 Core from TG Wireless when they need the cheapest new Samsung with LTE that still carries the brand and a removable battery.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Galaxy J2 Core (2020) is a 4G LTE phone, so the US 2G and 3G shutdowns do not disable it, but the LTE band list in the listing (1/3/5/8/40/41) is an international set that leaves out the main US bands, so treat it as an export phone unless the carrier confirms otherwise. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. VoLTE provisioning and carrier acceptance depend on the exact J260 variant; confirm with the carrier before buying for US activations. It uses a nano-SIM.
Resale fit
