Samsung Galaxy J2 Core J260M 8 GB Grey, New, GSM unlocked
Here the Samsung Galaxy J2 Core J260M comes in Grey with 8GB of storage, brand new, GSM unlocked, and 4G LTE. Grey 8 GB units suit dealers who need a neutral-finish Android Go handset for bundles and institutional orders where every phone should look the same and cost as little as possible.
The Galaxy J2 Core, model SM-J260M, is Samsung's 2018 Android Go phone for Latin America: a 5.0-inch qHD display, a MediaTek MT6737T quad-core chipset with 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB or 16 GB of storage with a microSD slot, an 8 MP rear and 5 MP front camera, and a removable 2,600 mAh battery, running Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition) with Samsung's Smart Manager for moving apps to the card.
Prepaid dealers and exporters buy the J2 Core from TG Wireless as the cheapest boxed Samsung smartphone with LTE, a handset for first-time smartphone customers, promotional bundles, and markets where the price of the phone decides the sale.

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 J2 Core is a GSM and LTE phone and every lot is GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. The J260M band set, 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/17/28, is the Latin American one: it includes bands 2, 4, 5, and 17 used by AT&T and T-Mobile but not 12, 66, or 71, so US coverage is partial and VoLTE needs carrier confirmation. US 3G ended in 2022 and T-Mobile 2G on August 3, 2026, so LTE with VoLTE is the only path to US service; export markets are the main fit.
Resale fit
- Export to Latin America and the Caribbean, where the J260M was sold new and a boxed entry Samsung with LTE sells on price.
- Prepaid dealers and promotion programs that need the lowest-cost Samsung smartphone for starter lines and bundles.
- Corporate, NGO, and institutional buyers sourcing inexpensive Android Go handsets with removable batteries for field use.
