Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime - User Reviews

  • 8 gb ROM model is clearly not enough. However there is a 16 gb model, in this case it covers perfectly the requirements needed by a huge chunk of users. Other users need even more e.g. 32gb, 64, or 128 gb. But for some users 16gb covers their needs perfectly.

  • My galaxy j2 prime is now a music player because of the very low internal memory. It's hard to update my apps so I had to uninstall other apps to update the others. I'm planning to buy a new cheap smartphone with 32GB internal storage.

  • What is the latest update this mobile received?

  • This phone automatically downloads software updates and even pop-ups software updates almost everyday!(even though i changed it to manual downloading, which is annoying). I cant block those pop-ups. It cost almost half of my storage.

  • Update ram 3gb

  • Mau update samsung j2 prime ram 3GB sama rom16GB

  • When phone switch on display colur but after 3second totaly black and white. How to make it normel screen

  • I'm facing same problem😑

  • at least you can use orbot and ahmia in this one

  • Worst storage system ang Ghost touch screen tsk

  • same prob

  • This phone has only 8G storage. Already 85% storage of my phone is occupied. Installed apps did not occupied the memory. I think Facebook and Messenger data occupied the maximum storage. The phone showing a message several times in a day to clean/clear the storage. How can I do that ?

  • The app that most installed and uses most storage is whatsapp.Fortunately whatsapp storage can be made to store it's pixs/video/animation gifs to SD card with it's own My File file manager.Click on the 3small dots at top right and select storage management.Just select all apps.Any apps that can be 'moved'is displayed.No need to install 3rd party app2sd.

  • It was a headache after getting low internal storage after transferring old phone apps to this. Then you have to live with it...

  • This phone has only 8G storage. Why would samsung disable allowing external sd card as default storage? You can see its low as 8Gb with half of that taken up by system apps. Htf are we supposed to store anything on sd card?! Dumb design. Dont buy this phone!

  • Well the language change to German just so...? How do I fix that...?

  • You can't move apps to sd card storage. Unfortunately, the internal storage is all you get for storing apps and other external downloads etc.

  • cant move apps to sd card and no space to run the os

  • last time J2 core I have the same problem .... I ask the distributor ... they said it's hard to fix .... I regret buying J2 core...because very angry i trow that phone at atlantic ocean when i fishing there.... because I was frustrated I got saving money for 6 months salary as fisherman at norway... I keep buying galaxy S10 .... now i live happily with my beloved "lover" galaxy S10

  • Theres apps for that purpose on google play ... its what im doin... but still nothing ... its very shiitttyy -.-

  • this phone is awful. It keeps throwing phone numbers to different contacts. It has actually delete some contacts.

  • My 2 years old galaxy j2 prime just got a software update notification today. I hope it won't slow down my phone

  • same problem

  • why people are so surprised about the Samsung j2 pro performance??? we all can not expect too much from a phone that cost less than 130 dollars.. when I bought it I knew it was only to be used for my university app and communication apps ... this is the flip phone from nowdays.. if we want better service we must invest a little bit more .. greetings !!

  • Thanks.

  • LTE is 4G

  • Hi. I can only connect to the following networks - LTE/3G/2G ( auto connect ). I would like to connect to 4G. Any help would be great. Thanks.

  • help my j2 prime has ghost touch always getting back to home.

  • probably.

  • quick response.

  • go to storage and move an app.

  • good to hear.

  • i think it's fixed.

  • playstore.try app to sd

  • Best phone ever love the front flash 16g internal yahhhhh anyone that say this is a bad phone they are out of they mind😍😘😗&­#128538;😙😘😍&­amp;#128536;

  • Can you please make an app or update your system.. I want to move my apps to sd card so that i can free up more in internal storage!

  • It's now six months since I reset the phone to factory specs.It still working fine.It does what you want fast.No hesitation.

  • After one year the screen kept saying I'm out of internal space.I could not access gallery. I tried deleting updates and all unnecessary applications to no avail. I rebooted the phone to factory specs and got instantly 3gb of internal memory. I reloaded my contacts, pictures and music and still had 2.3gb of internal space.Phone became really responsive afterwards. It seemed like the phone was saving every place I visited during the year.

  • My mother bought a J2 for me because I needed to replace my old phone suddenly. This is an absolutly horrible phone. Even deleteing apps is useless and you can't even use the SD card storage. The memory slot on top on the sim card is a stupid design. It took us a trip to the phone shop for that. Don't get one.

  • Guys ,just delete the updatess for the internal apps and replace it with the factory version.If you chose to do this the total freeable memory is 2.0 Gb(without including chrome and youtube)

  • If you have a memory problem,try uninstalling the updates of the internal apps such as microsoft word,Exel,hangouts and ETC"It worked for me personally" 1.8 Gb free,just like that. Try it

  • True... lack of support from Samsung despite so many complaints about this model having so limited internal storage.. Occupied by the operating system and other useless application which you don't really need but unable to uninstall... This is a big joke.. Its a trick of Samsung to make you buy their expensive high end phones.. I could not even maintain a single game... Imagine a "single game" I thought they will release an update android support for this model to be able to transfer data file to its external and use it safely..

  • Same problem here!jst wasted my money buying this phone.storage is always full.i thought this is a good one.but its not.

  • In my opinion, Samsung Galaxy J2 prime is a crapped up phone sold as a scam, i bought the phone only had 1 gb internal storage memory and it went full quickly with updating all software and stuffs, no space to do anything else, its a waste of money to buy this phone, i was foolish enough not to check the internal memory before purchasing the phone.

  • Abysmal performance in terms of storage. Too big system data. I can name more models from different companies which have a better performance. This phone is a waste of money.

  • The same problem I got.....

  • same as mine. keep saying the storage device is full...very dissappointing....worst phone ever.

  • Just root this phone. Then you can remove all the bloatwares. Actually its easy steps. Find it on xda site. Even now, I got no worry about internal storage anymore. After reflashing with the newest firmware, I can set this device to move all the data of social media apps to the sd card automatically. This is far from a great phone. But not as bad as the first time I bought it.

  • This is the worst phone on the market.Its false advertising.It saying 8GB but you actually getting less than half to use as 4.8GB is use for system memory.I will discourage anyone from purchasing this phone

  • Its good and sometimes its faster than my s7

  • Memory card slot is coupled with the sim card slot.

  • it has, it is using sim 2 slot, its a hybrid

  • I am using this phone for 1 year now and there is no issues. I can browse the web, using FB lite, Youtube, and Twitter. But the only problem with this phone is the microsoft bloatware. It could have been a perfect entry level phone if only there are no useless apps preinstalled.

  • already purchase..but this phone didn't have a slot for memory card????? why the phone is still in the market.????

  • A definite bad buy, insufficient storage over shadows anything good about the phone. Can't understand why it's still on the market.

  • This phone cant event adopt a sd card. Worst phone ever

  • It's okay but storage had used by system 4gb out of 8gb.

  • I put in a 16GB sd mem card, no use. Im not techie, ive researched why some apps doesnt take up space from the mem card, nothing. The phone is no of no freakin' use to me.

  • 8gb internal , 4 gb is taken up by the operating system

  • 8gb internal , 4 gb is taken up by the operating system

  • Purchased less than a month ago. 8 gigs, but only 4 gigs show up. I have taken it in twice to the seller and thus far no fix. I am not happy with it at all. I would not recommend this phone.

  • Worst phone ever. It keeps saying that the memory is full and automatically uninstalls your apps. Very, very disappointing Samsung!!

  • This device a little bit expensive for students. Kinda CPU heating up while gaming but that's okay theres a copper plate on back cover of device, same as note 9. But the issue is this device don't receive android nougat or oreo. Totally not worth it for the price.

  • Ros yes. Pubg no

  • How do you do this

  • How

  • Storage is horrible with this phone. have a micro sd and still not able to download apps. Don't spend your money on this phone. Upgrade to the next version

  • Problems are device storage, camera is not that good enough and battery life. But ROS works slightly perfect when I can still play it when my storage is not that full that time.

  • Yes.. i have it now and i wanted to swap it to huawei or vivo..the internal memory is bullshit...

  • You most have a class 10 sd card for good performamce

  • 1.download twrp. Link upper 2.Flash twrp 3.download adoptable .link upper 4.flash adoptable through twrp

  • Work in otg uvc?

  • Do not buy.. internal memory is very bad.

  • Use adoptable patch

  • For me i fix internal problem by using adoptable storage patch.micro Sd act like internal storage i already download dragonest m,ROS,Freefire,mobile legend and it works perfect :)

  • wifi doesnt work, only had it a few months, wont pick up anything.. happened before for 3 days then came back on, now 2 months, tried everything to get it to work, even 3 different phone stores, experts cant fix it... memory poor, worst phone ive had

  • I am sorry. You can find it at the back of the phone. You have to take the back cover and battery out.

  • You can find it on the back of the phone underneath the battery.

  • How and where do i insert the sd memory card

  • Getting 8Gb phones these days is bassically a waste of money . The actual standard should be at least 32gb

  • Playing a 1gb game is not suitable for this phone! The phone has only 8gb and you cannot download any games or apps from the App Store.. But you can download apk games or apps but if you do that, the storage can be worst..

  • Maybe you can help me please. I purchased my J2 SM-G532M (Android Version 6.0.1) in Chile Feb 2018 and I can find no place to install an SD Card for extra storage. I think it is 8GB but when I try to copy my J1 (2gb) over then it tells me there is not enough memory! This in spite of just a few added apps, no photos, videos of music, and there is no room for the 'automatic updates'. Inside the rear panel looks like no images that I can find online. Any help appreciated. John

  • I'm in Chile, I got the 8gb version a year ago. The good: Although I've never installed the more demanding apps, everything I've put in the phone works perfectly from heavy-traffic apps to internet based games, phone has never gone slow during everyday usage and Android has never crashed except for some very rare circumstances. The bad: If you get the 8gb version you WILL suffer. Most modern basic apps are forced into internal memory, try to put as many apps as you can in the SD, updating apps is a huge hassle because not only Google Play outright LIES about your free space remaining (Try to download a tiny app and it will tell you "you need 10 MB more to download" even though the phone says you have 400 MB free), the internal memory will fill on its own, you'll be using the "optimize" feature all the time and clearing the data and cache of these basic apps like Google itself or internal Google/Android services (and receiving videos via Whatsapp will also impact your internal storage). You'll be forced to use the Lite or PWA versions of many social apps that cannot be moved to SD. (Myself, I use FB lite, Twitter PWA, and Uber PWA for example, because the full versions will MURDER your internal storage. Shazam is also very demanding on internal storage so I have to use the Google app's music search feature) and to disable most if not all of the "Google Play _____" apps to free space. Most games can be sent to the SD, but some of these require Google Play Games to be installed. Root the phone if possible, I can't, because I play stuff that would brand me a cheater if I did. The okay: Camera works fine but it's not stellar. So get this phone in 16gb if you can, if the 8gb version is the only option it could be a good second choice, it might be a hassle to manage but it's VERY reliable.

  • i'm planning to buy this phone next week, here in argentina they sale the 16gb internal memory version, but i really need to know if it has problems with the memory like the 8gb version as all i see is critics by this aspect, if someones who have the 16gb version can answer this, is the only phone i can afford considering the critical economy situation. thanks in advance

  • hi, is your j2 prime has short battery life? i mean even in minimal use, it only takes 1day. thanks for the answer..

  • does anyone have android nougat or oreo on this ?

  • Worst phone pls don't buy always shows as memory full

  • Terrible phone not enough memory cant transfer most things to sd card.DONT BUY.

  • HATE the storage of this damn phone! System shit already occupies 98% of the internal storage AND it does NOT let you transfer ANYTHING to the SD CARD. What's the point of even having an SD Card when it CANNOT even be used????! Pure BULL!

  • Dont even think about it man.u can play pretty low and low mid end games.This phone sucks if ur looking for gaming but good for pretty any other stuff.

  • can you download and play pubg mobile in this phone?

  • is this phone upgraded to andriod nougat yet ?

  • My J2 Prime works fine, and is a good replacement for my S5 while I wait for a replacement screen to arrive from China. Moving apps or data to the SD card is easy as pie, so I don't understand the complaints in that department!

  • for being an android smart phone it sucks . ive had cheaper phones that everything goes straight to the external memory . this phone stays stck on stupid with memory full

  • STORAGE SUCKS!!!! cant transfer apps to SD Card | always saying storage is full!! WTF!

  • Yea mine too

  • Ros do work but you need to disable some apps But in pubg it foes not work and im do sad i csnt play ros or pubg in this bad@ss phone

  • Are you too yep mine too i cant use other apps beacause of this

  • lol

  • anyone has the nougat update yet ?

  • j2 prime is scrap not good model its have memory card slot but if i put a memory card its not working i cannot transfer the downloaded came from apps store..evrytime i used my FB or messenger its indicating full storage i dont why samsung launch this model..it will affect to them if they never upgrade this j2 prime,they must upgrade even people now they using untill now..well thats my comment thanks..

  • Im so dissapointed.It looks nice but the storage sucks for me.I can't download other apps that i wanted because of the storage.Everytime storage full gosh!So i have to delete again other apps because it cant work.Do you have any options about this?This is one of the problem of this unit.Please do something.

  • Is it upgradable from android 6 to android 7 os version

  • not satisfied with this storage system.....plzzz do something....otherwise i have to move toward other mobile section.

  • This phone is best for me but storage is too small

  • I phone is running of storage huhu

  • Its sucks really!! It only have facebook and youtube on it and sd card wont help. Waste of money

  • In only 3 months, after the purchase, the cellphone ran out of memory.

  • Thankx for guiding me thanks it usefull or not

  • Oh no.. I just bought a J2 prime and after 2 days use, today, half-lower part does not respond to touching!!!

  • DO NOT BUY J2 PRIME! IT SUCKS! memory not enough to install other apps. only facebook can be installed.

  • This phone sucks...better to buy cherry mobile or my phone than this..

  • Yes. I use it to play rules of survival. No force quits. Lags only occur on poor wifi. So far its good. But I only have two apps because the storage sucks. If I were you I'd buy other phone.

  • best stupid phone i use

  • F your looking for gaming i recommend j7 core or cloudfone excite prime 2

  • Wish I had read the comments on here before purchasing. Purchased a 32GB storage card to enhance memory, that was a waste of money as well as the phone. Cant use it for memory, this phone in this day and age is a joke, can basically only use it as a phone, no room to install any apps. I'll never buy another Samsung again!!!!!!!!

  • I guess not. :(

  • PLEASE TELL ME ,Can this phone good for pubg and ros? I mean not force quit , lags

  • What gb? Ram or internal? What did you download?

  • Can this device compatible with rules of survival,pubg? I mean can the 1.5gb ram use it? Just wanted to play those games so bad.. Thank yoi for your teply

  • Well the internal storage is terrible but the quality of the camera is good. I'm going to rate it 3/5. (Sorry for my bad English it's not my native language)

  • Photo quality is decent. Form factor good. Light and thin. The real downsides are the RAM and internal storage size. Over doing apps will slow the thing to a craw Good enough for average daily use (call, messaging, modest web browsing, zero gaming, modest social media use). Good back-up phone.

  • the phone allows SDcards and the pic quality is great.

  • thank u thats exactly what i did and im able to download more apps, thanks alot!

  • Not enough GB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worst phone ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used to love Samsung but this phone ruined everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAA WAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Noo

  • Agree

  • Just disable apps that you don't need and it will help. I am able to download Mobile Legends (1 Gb of data), instagram, messenger, and 7 more apps. and still have 700 mb left.

  • Does the phone allow SDCARDS and is the picture quality okay

  • their is not any official update for it

  • i wouldn't recommend purchasing this product. most of us who are using this model has problems with the internal storage. i only have a total of 6 apps and then i'd receive a notice that my storage is already running out. not to mention that you can't delete system apps which, honestly, is frustrating. some of it was pretty useless for me, and to have it in this phone is absolutely infuriating. i keep on deleting unnecessary files but i always have a few mb left at the end of the day, unfortunately.

  • The only phone that has the best *#2263# command amongst other samsung variance... It really served the purpose well for those looking for network speed configuration

  • anybody has the nougat update yet ?

  • Some of these app are useless that you not totally useless 1gb of space and 7gb that the phone use in total 8gb 2gb of apps that you totally useless that i waste my money to a junk

  • I would not encourage anyone to buy this phone as the 8Gb storage is a joke as undeletable aps take up most of the space. Try getting a phone with 16Gb,32Gb,64Gb storage.

  • This phone has pop-up ads that appear almost every time you open the phone and sometimes while you're browsing. Worst of all, there's no way to disable them. The storage is also terrible. My only installed applications are Whatsapp, Uber and a flashlight. With only this, there's only a few megabytes of space left, which means I can't take pictures.

  • So dissapointed it doesn't have any memory card slot and 8gb phone memory is so.....!!!😣😣&#128547­;

  • Yeah it is true it has the worst storage ever. We need to format the sd card before we can transfer files.

  • I haven't and it only has a bit of space and I used a 32 GB AS card bust that wasn't even enough what a waste!😠

  • Its the worse phone ever..i regret buying it..i cant even Access my galary bcuz i have no Space..

  • Too little Space for any application, got 1 today and im so very very dissappointed to get this one i thought that 8GB was not in used but when open the device it only have 1.70 GB only because the system eated the internal memory tsssk

  • front camera flashlight not use in WhatsApp video call

  • Worst phone! Internal memory is too little! And the SD card doesnÂ’t serve its purpose. ThereÂ’s a lot of pre-installed apps that cannot be deleted hence, storage always full!

  • ripoff waste of money do not buy this phone!!! this phone is shit!

  • press volume down button and power button at the same time

  • I've been using this for a week or two now and it's the worst phone ever! Installed apps doesn't allow by the phone to move and it always says that the storage is full even it's not! It won't also allow tou to format the sd card! It always get full storage and I have been uninstalling unwanted apps. DON'T BUY THIS AGAIN OR YOU'LL REGTET IT.

  • can't set sd card as primary storage. you will only use at least 1gb in applications then its already full. the sd card purpose is nonsense. this is a crap! don't buy this model. such a bad idea.

  • Where to find screenshot of this phone?

  • I hope i can swap it with a new phone. Wasting 5 month of my time to collect money to buy this phone. I work really hard tho. After my old phone was broke. I bought this and i think my old phone have bigger memory from this phone. Liar a complete liar. Thats why i about this for everyone who want to buy it. To make sure them not to suffer the same problem as me.

  • bad performance of battery after 5 months use the battery sometimes show more % than charged and showing anonymous behaviour anyway the battery discharge time is same as first time use

  • so much disappointed after purchase. It's RAM & ROM both are very poo.. Even more than half of the ROM is eaten up by the operating system. Actually 3.5 GB ROM is available. Camera is not so much well. A lot to be done for it's improvement. But my question : why don't I get 8 GB as internal storage? And why it's charging longevity is very short.?

  • disappointed. it's a free cellphone from telco co. for plan promo. but almost a month of using it defects detected. cannot use sd card as my default storage, always run out of internal storage for just 2 downloaded apps (watsapp and viber )'can't move videos/photos from device to sd card, can't retrieve my lost media files. I had to force quit the installed camera( always file found/data error) and downloaded a new camera app but still the same issue:(

  • Worst phone ever...cannot use the sd card to store. Waste of time and money....samsung should recall these phones and give an upgraded workable phone for free.😥

  • why i cant download applications such whatsapp,messenger,and imo????huhu i need to unistall some applications for me to download

  • cant move video or audio from device to 'sd card ' -so there samsung 😈😈😈&#128­520;

  • This unit is not worth the money. No way you can update or download apps coz its 8gb only internal and the expansion slot for sd card is useless....no access to external....only for formatting...very expensive for a TOY.

  • I have the phone and it's working so fine, I don't play games but I use a lot of applications like twitter, snapchat, facebook, instagram, whatsapp, onenote, and a lot of more apps,

  • Im a regret buyer of this phone this phone cant even download many apps .... my only apps are facebook and messenger

  • come on samsung you updated the j7 prime to nougat why cant you do the same for this ?

  • Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime didn't get 7.0 / 7.1.1 update. It is still android 6.0.1😑

  • It has a bad camera compared to the Grand Prime Plus which is its equivalent on paper specs. Had to return for that and got the Grand Prime Plus

  • Whats the compatible sd card for this ??? I need answer

  • Poor performance to samsung j2 prime The new name for this phone will be samsung j2 primative phone samsung what are you thing lunching this phone

  • This j2 prime sucks..its very very useless..only 8gb internal..cant even dl apps..cant even make SD card a default storage...such an idiot idea about this stupid phone

  • Sir I want new version software of samsung j2prime

  • So far has worked very well, with proper storage management you can fit pretty much all the apps you need. I even have a few large games on it as well. It also has a pretty nice camera. Overall 8/10. 10/10 for the price

  • This phone isn't worth the money. It constantly is full, even when you keep removing apps. SD cards don't help either as Samsung has made it impossible to turn an SD card into internal storage. Buy anything other than this.

  • did this get nougat yet ?

  • It's always "storage full".. i need to uninstall my messenger just to install another app... very disappointing...

  • The phone does not enable SD card to be formatted as internal storage. It's basically useless - can't install the apps you want since half of the internal storage is already eaten up by the operating system. Most app downloaded cannot be transferred to the SD card that's only formatted as a portable storage. Such a waste of money.

  • You are just unable to use the phone properly. Go get yourself a Samsung Keystone.

  • When you insert the SD Card, it automatically prompts you to change the location.

  • The phone is totally useless. Bought it for my 10 year old and she can't do anything on it because of lack of memory. Absolutely hopeless, total waste of money.

  • not enough space!!!!!!! this phone didnt even last me one year n it stopped charging i dont recommend it

  • Not user friendly. External memory cannot be put as a default. Need ro manually transfer the files from internal to external everytime. Not recomended.

  • The worst phone ever made unable to update apps unable to store photos, at times unable to open images sent from whatsapp as there is not enough space on internal storage Such a shame for a phone

  • Hello, been using J2 Prime for a year now and had the same problem during my first few months. My solution: 1) I disabled apps that I don't need. I get weather and news updates from social media. Office/Polaris takes space as well, I uninstalled mine since I can open my documents in my notebook. 2) I only have the apps/programs that I use. Facebook, Messenger, Chrome, Gmail and Instagram for apps. And Calculator, Messages, Phone, Camera, Gallery, Calendar, Notes for programs. Other programs and apps that those are disabled. 3) I do a regular clean up from the Device Maintenance settings (I do that twice or thrice a month, maybe?) and I clear cache not only in Chrome but in other apps as well (which I do at least once a month). Samsung J2 has really poor memory, so if you bought it thinking that you can use it to keep your favorite apps (like a fitness tracker and astrology updates) and games, I recommend that you start saving up for another one.

  • Bought this as an upgrade for my old Samsung J1 phone. I'm already using this for a year now, here's my review/opinion on this phone: Samsung J2 has a good camera for its price. However, it's limited memory is a con. If you're looking for a camera phone that can send and receive calls, you can use for basic social media and browse the net while you're on a budget, get this one. But if you love your apps and games, look for another phone. I only have the basic apps like Facebook, Messenger and Instagram and yet I already consumed 80-85% of its memory. I have to delete files (that are saved internally), disable some apps and programs, and regularly do a cleanup (clear caches) to free some space and make sure it's up and running well. I recommend this as a basic phone for your teens, your grandparents, parents and anyone who don't need expensive phones and are just looking for a gadget that can do its task: send and receive calls and messages, take photos and videos, use basic social media and browse the web.

  • yeah its not all the same

  • So many phones that offer a lot more for the same money. How did Samsung managed to sell so many of these puzzles me.

  • Most popular J series phone of 2017 in Philippines. But, Mi A1 never disappoints on every specs and pricing.

  • I have a samsung j2 prime also my cousin but my camera in rear its verydark while my cousins rear camera is very nice its not the same .

  • this phone is good.. that's it .

  • Cannot play videos saved in my SD. Never had issues in other phones.tsk

  • use share it app and not the play store to install apps..using share it will maximize the use of your SD card for apps because you can select on where your files will be stored.

  • I brought this ph a few days ago and it keeps saying storage space running out. I have done a factory reset on it and it hasn't made any difference and i have hardly anything on it. what is also annoying is all the apps that are already loaded onto the ph and you can't get rid of them. I've never had this much issues with a new ph before

  • If I will on data connection in 3g area what will be shown?H+ or 3G?

  • If I will on data connection in 3g area what will be shown?H+ or 3G?

  • Since updates only go to internal memory; you may format your SD card as though it were internal memory. This phone is on Android M so this should work. This feature is not available on Android L and lower.

I completely regret having this phone. I already gave away my Asus Zenfone 5, the best phone so far. I'm going to sell my J2 for sure.

I tried the touchscreen tests, restart the phone and still the same situation. Please help me. TIA!

  • use the Home Button and Power. Press together, hold it, until it sounds like kamera.

  • i dont have enough memory I have to be deleting my picture and videos

  • Where do i found the screenshots of Galaxy j2 prime? If it has..

  • my easiest way for me to download mp3/videos/movies direct to SD card is to un mount the SD card use SD card reader download using your pc hehehe very easy :D if you don't like my idea...do it your hard way by downloading it to playstore and copy it to SD card

  • my problem is I have not enough memory, and I can't see my videos and photos when the memory is full for seeing my videos and fotos I have to go to file and delete something

  • Why my samsung galaxy j2 prime internal memory is shown all ready full without file and unnecessary apps. It create problem for me please say me how to solve this probleme.

  • But its own video i mean i recorded a video from the party then when i play this video i doesnt work . FILE HAS INCORRECT DATA OR UNKNON VIDEO. So please help me to fix this..

  • The phone is very slow and apps are not getting installed quickly either .The features are not up to market standards. better buy higher RAM & ROM configured mobile.

  • I had the same problem lk you before . And I realized it's my fault to buy a phone with low internal storage. So I changed my phone and buy a phone with 32GB internal memory inside and problem solved. Never buy a phone with 8GB internal memory inside it. Try to get the higher internal memory is better than 8GB. Lesson learnt 😀

  • Hello galaxy j2 prime please update 7.0 version

  • automaticaly off mobile hotspot...can not stay on..

  • How shall I know when buying j2prime is original?

  • Do not receive incoming call. Only outgoing call is available.

  • video format might not supported, or just install VLC app.

  • Help. Why my samsung j2 prime can not play video? Or something file has incorrect file data? Help please.

  • For those who have problems with space is running low. Try to buy an original SDHC memory card. Download SD insight in playstore for you to check if the SD card is original (16 gb at least, 8 gb will works as well). Then try to watch the tutorial on how to adopt the SD card in making it as the internal storage of the phone

  • How did you manage to move anything to sd card? My ad card is empty and I can't instal or download anything to it? As for the bloatware...hahaha

  • why cant accept sd card in remix 32 gb class 10 &accepted this device i have doing file transfer to device storage and sd card run this file few minutes after im open the file not playing plesae i need clear clarification sir

  • I've had the same problem. I've limited the apps I install and as far as possible I moved the apps from the phone storage to the memory card. Also, restarting sometimes helps clear that "space full" message.

  • You might need to root your device to remove those pre installed apps, I hate them too (what a waste of internal space)

  • I don't like the way they pre installed Facebook on the device, it's taking too much space on internal ROM.

  • The device storage is always full. Many apps seem pemanently installed and can't be removed. At least I can't remove or update Facebook. Cant find anyone who can. What's wrong with the phone

  • Yes? How and what did you do to have that large internal memory for j2 prime

  • I have the same problem with the memory. I have an iPhone 4 and the 8GB memory is more than enough, what on earth is using up the other 4GB? There is only 3.5GB memory available and nothing adds up to that amount, even if you look at every folder and calculate it. It makes no sense at all!

  • What do u mean user? Depend on the user. Facebook already ate 500 MB, Instagram 200 and few other apps, not enough space to even update the apps, lol.

  • That all okey..good phone..but the internal storage small 8 gb..but the internal storage 16 so good phone..hihihi i like this phone..i am playing mobile legend very very good not lag..tq samsung..samsung the best

  • What is the user memory of J2 Prime?

  • Good phone for everyday use, no gaming. Lights task only. The bad side is 8 GB memory is too small, even when you not install that many apps. Systems already ate half of that.

  • How you got this....please clarify me

  • You can slot your SD card just above the sim card slot. You will notice that there are two separate illustrations if you remove the battery.

  • I do not even have a slot to insert sd card...can anyone help?

  • I got external SD card I have been trying to transfer the app / download apps to SD card... It can't be done this way, only can transfer files...how to solve? It is a wastage I buy the SD card

  • The storage is very bad I only downloaded 1 app and its already full ughh I even have a SD card inserted but it wont let me transfer apps and documents.

  • Rear+front camera is very bad

  • How do u transfer? My own doesnÂ’t have the option?

  • Samsung J2 Prime is very storage is woefully inadequate and the manufacturer has prevented use of external SD Cards for storage of Apps. Basically means that the phone constantly full. Got the phone about 1 month ago and it's already full. Cannot transfer any apps to the SD card. Cannot format an SD card as internal storage. VERY ANNOYING.

  • I Have no issue about that in my phone....

  • Mine too it takes at least almost 3 hrs and sometimes 7 hrs to fully charged but its my fault because i uses it while charging,,

  • My Brother bought me this phone during samsung supersale in Samsung store in SM,,, I Think i liked it,,, the only thing that i did not like about it, was the 8gb internal storage,,, which is too small for my liking,,

  • The big problem with Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime is the easy-to-burn internal storage, so I'm a J2 Prime user I want to encourage Samsung to make software upgrades so that the problem can be solved perfectly

  • J2 prime is not good storage,Camera when videochat its very dark,and when the water falls in t he screen its very HANG

  • MYGOSH! This phone is really getting into my nerves! First storage problem! I can't store anything in my sd card And I cant even change my sd card as my internal storage! Second camera problem mygosh my camera is so dark specially in videochat. Hayss this phone waste my dad's money! This was his surprised gift to me and Im so very dissapointed hayss

  • I like the style of J2 prime but it got to storage space. I can't want i want.

  • Hoping for a nougat update for a unique look and experience since J5 and J7 prime have updated their OS.

  • Yes it is a very good phone. The performance is good. Its fast especially when in come to wifi nor data. But for me the only problem is the screen. It has only TFT Capacitive display compare to its predecessor J2 2015 has Super AMOLED display. The screen is bad.

  • Before you buy the phone, you need to check it thoroughly because there are phones that have defects, if should say which are not negligible. The camera works perfect, I love its front cam, so clear and saturated.

  • Well, the phone is great. I had brought one September 8, the phone works smooth. Data connection's fast, camera works perfect even using messenger on video call. Storage issue can be fixed by inserting an external card and transfer the other apps to the external storage.

  • yes it's really bad

  • It's really complicated when it comes to storage, the phone is pretty good but the storage... It's because you can't store anything at your sd card

  • Yes! Same and I don't have any idea oh how to fix it.

  • now I have 3.1Gb of internal mem space available

  • To free up some memory space, Disable all the apps that you have. Go to Settings> Applications> then disable all the apps, they will be replaced with the lower-sized factory version

  • remaining features are good

  • Only Storage Problem as it has 8 Gb of storage .4.5 Gb of space is reserved for operating system and approximate of 1.5 Gb is reserved for built-in apps . I only got a space of 1.5 g of internal storage.

  • Hi. I like the phone itself but my only concern is its camera. It has a poor quality. Everytime I download snapchat or snow app, the quality of the front cam of J2 Prime is so so poor. It is pixilated. I'm sorry but I am little bit of disappointed because of this

  • Check internal memory with a pc only have 4gb

  • You may need to have the phone unlocked to the networks in the Philippines if it was US bought.

  • my j2 prime has no network here in philippines... i bought my cell at US.. the simcard here in philippines cant make calls and text

  • hi my name Josh there is problem on my phone I can't store any thing on SD card on my phone

  • What is the name of that app? Pl

  • The processor of this phobe is good but the internal storage is total garbage, 7GB for built in apps and the system.. srsly? I can no longer update my apps nor download games, samsung PLEASE upgrade the storage! I dont want to waste 170 bucks on this garbage

  • hi my name Josh there is problem on my phone I can't store any thing on SD card on my phone

  • Hi shane! I am using this phone. The problem is we are not able to move some apps in micro sd card. It becomes full and useless.

  • Storage problems.. not happy on this phone.. its waste my money..

  • I like samsung galaxy j2 prime but just only one has big problem... Storage problem....

  • Isn't this phone running on Android 6.0.1 marshmallow?

  • phone is a bit good my problem with this is that i experience auto shut and when removing the battery and placed it again it decreases the battery percentage min of 1percent max of 18 percent

  • This device is priced at Php 6,000.00 in our country (which is aprox. $117). Being an owner of this device, I simply cannot recommend this to other potential buyers, as there are other devices that can offer more performance and features at the same price range. Pros (+) >Good 2600mAh battery >Good reproduction of colors, despite being a TFT screen >It runs on Samsung's Android "TouchWiz" (ofc) >4G + LTE support >Great UI >It's Mediatek, not Exynos (thanks for this one) Cons (-) >The built-in camera lacks some features. Open Camera performs marginally better than the stock >Lack of making the SD card as an Adoptable Storage (even after using adb to format it as adoptable) makes this device hard to use. Installing Facebook + Messenger will take up LACK OF AMOLED DISPLAY AT THIS PRICE RANGE. Its predecessor, the J2 - has AMOLED display, which is still a better option than a TFT screen >It runs on Android Marshmallow - Expect an update to Android 7.0 (Nougat) within the following months >Down-facing speaker quality doesn't meet my own standard

  • it DOESN'T support the "adoptable storage" option that was present since Lollipop. Even using adb to make the extsdcard as adoptable storage doesn't work. It still defaults to the Internal storage of the device itself when installing an app. Currently, there's a LineageOS13/14.1 port attempt for this device. That ROM will solve the storage problem, as it is based on stock Android, thus allowing Adoptable Storage as an option when formatting/inserting extsdcard

  • Why won't you just buy a MicroSd card for it..It solves the Storage problems..It supports microSd right? Most of the phones support Microsd

  • Why all these opinions have a issue on Storage?..Saying Low storage capacity Someone explain this to me! I'm about to buy this in a week's time.Please Is it a Good Phone?

  • Call drop suddently.not hearing sometimes battery darin

  • Purchased 3 units of this model. The silver one does have a longer battery life takes arround 3 days to be drained with the use of internet for almost 16 hrs. The gold one's battery life is just 1 day. All of my units have a 1st charge while it's drained and turned off while charging for 8 hrs with out any interruption. And the silver one is the only thing that has a 3 day battery life, In terms of storage it's the usual. Camera... Yes it sucks! Core prime has a better rear camera than this, good thing it's not my priority with this phone. The front camera. really poor quality. Well the phone is 6k made by samsung so there's a catch. The browser by samsung crashes a lot of times have to update it and it's all good.

  • Yes. The issue in this unit is the storage, such small storage. You will need to use adoptable storage. Search the web regarding adoptable storage on samsung units. :)

  • I have used an application to have adoptable storage with my unit (without rooting). Since then, I have no trouble using my J2 prime. Fast connection, no lag on my games. You just need to find ways to solve your problems on storage, just search the webs or join Samsung J2 Prime on Social networks to be updated with other techniques. Thanks!

  • How do i update the divice for better storage?

  • i agree but it says to get more space you have to update the device. but i dont know if it will cause all my data to get deleted

  • My phone is just fine just.. The storage is too small

  • It's a budget phone just for light to moderate use, don't expect too much for a phone with a price of P5999

  • The cam of j2 prime sucks

  • same complaint front cam its too dark

  • hello..same problem here.. I bought my j2p on aug.11 .. the cam in video call was so dark! :(

  • Too much bloatware.

  • Yeah same!

  • Same problem. Dark video and storage problem. Wtf

  • J1 2016 camera is better that j2 prime... it looks like you have hepa when u use j2 prime can

  • Just got my j2 prime yesterday but why the battery drain so fast?

  • Its phone complaint i return back to shop yesterday waste of money dont buy

  • This is the worst phone I've ever had. Absolutely no room for app and no option to use as card as alternative storage. I really wish I had done some research before I purchase the terrible phone.

  • The Android system use the other 4.something GB so you only have 3.something GB free for your real stuff. That happens with all phones. You may want to buy a micro SD card to avoid issues.

  • Yeah I was disappointed, for that as well turns out the operation system take out a HUGE amount but you can transfer the apps to an sd card , the weird thing was that sometimes the phone does not make that connection saying that the app is not even installed , unless I'm doing something wrong. It sure is not user friendly. But I still love mine.

  • Hey , so i recently purchased one and yes it does have the search bar for google straight on your home screen witch makes it easy to search google and also it uses the microphone so you don't even have to type.

  • Is this cellphone good for searching anything in google chrome?

  • Which is better asus zenfone max 5.2, vivo y53, or samsung galaxy j2 prime?

  • How do I remove messages in the call log of Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime?

  • i just got one two weeks ago and cant get any service went to four places trying to get it turned on ,i,m done with this phone how do i get my money back? got it on line at overstock.com paid 111.00 and 10.00 more for faster delivery can i get my money back?/.

  • purchased Samsung J2 last night. when i check the phone via computer.. it shows that the internal storage is about 3.55gb only.. The specs shows that it suppose to have 8gb internal storage.. how was that?

  • I couldnt recommend this phone to anyone because in my experiences with it there is literally nothing good about it except the battery life. 8gb of internal space whereas the operation system takes up almost 90% of it. Don't be fool when they say it is expandable up to 258gb micro SD, the operating system doesn't allow you to format the SD for internal storage. 2/10

  • I was sad because i expect that its camera is very clear but it was'nt. It's just like the camera with keypad phones

  • Useless for doing anything except make phone calls and check emails. Not even enough storage for photos and internal apps can't be deleted.

  • Thank you that is what I wanted to know.

  • Yes you can I have it installed

  • I am unable to make groups in my contact book

  • That is what I was wondering if you can be able to play pokemon go on this phone.

  • Yes same problem

  • Hi guys did anyone of you play Pokémon go with this phone?

  • You're dumb. It says 7gb something because of the OS itself, that's why.

  • Is there a way to upgrade the RAM on this phone and if so how do you do that?

  • go sms pro don't work on this phone

  • The phone is the worst as it regards internal space, It's literally full just coming out of the box. The internal is 8gigs...it comes with 7.something of thosebgigs already used, By the time you download whatsapp, facebook messenger and probably another app it starts begging you to delete apps. It can carry a decent size memory card BUT the card cannot be used as default storage DO NOT BUY

  • still qhd screen?other company offering hd screen at this price range.this is one of the reasons samsung got beaten by chinese companies in budget category

  • Same problem. I just brought this phone last month. How can I fix this?

  • I also have the same problem. How to fix this

  • j2 prime

  • Hey I did this. You have to go on the Apps listing > go to the app (ex:instagram) > click on it > scroll to storage > you should see the option to change from internal to external.

  • Tick the permissions for storage

  • Pls constructive comment would be better for those seeking one opinion for the other. Better still be truthful with any info u are giving people about your device. Bad info will not be ideal . your opinion about a phone remains your opinion

  • Click on apps>settings>applications>choose apps>storage

  • Is it Worth To buy this phone? My sister planned to Buy me this Phone but I read your opinions about this and i was like "Really??" It's full of bad comments. So im thinking if I should buy this Help me plzzzz

  • never buy a phone with only 8GB internal storage and less than 2GB RAM

  • When I open my download apss,it do not open.they say,"please grant permission on your storage... At time I can do.... Please say....

  • I did not find any option to move my apps to the sd card. I looked for it on Settings > Application Manager > Selected an app > Looked for any option to move it but I'm not having any luck. Is there really no other way to fix the storage issue? I only have 2 applications downloaded, and an estimated 60 pictures. It's still saying that my storage is full. :(

  • i had this phone but it cant read the sd card..i need help..ive try a couple of sd card but the problem wont solved..

  • The worse phone i have ever used,, the internal storage is the pits, the camera is not to bad for a 8mp,,,

  • Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime is great , the camera is very beautiful . Even though not using the filters its works so great but the only problem is the 8GB internal storage .. It is too small .. I cant save more videos and pictures there so that i need a msd to save it ..

  • No technology is perfect. Everyone should accept that reality. All phones have hardware and software compatibility issues. Upgrade your firmware whenever possible. Be on guard with clones. Samsung phones are always cloned because of its good features and better specification at a reasonable price. Don't get disappointed with the inferior features of J2 Prime like 8Gb internal, 1.5 RAM, 8MP back camera, etc. Instead be disappointed with your fixation and infatuations with Samsung! There are better phones out there at a more cheaper price. If you know how to root your phone then do it so you can uninstall those unnecessary apps that goes with your phone and even overclock it if you want. Just don't blame me though if you make a mess with your phone in the process. If you want a better phone from Samsung then go for the high end products like the S Series. Or try Sony - it is long known for its great audio and video and best camera. Or try the not so famous brands available in your country that offers the best features and specifications at the least price. I have a Firefly Allure 64LTE bought last July 2015 that offers 1.7GHz 64bit Octa core CPU, 3GB RAM, 16GB ROM upgradable to 64GB, 5.5 inch display, 5.0 Marshmallow OS, 13MP Sony rear camera, 8MP front, finger print sensor, gyroscope, proximity, ambient light, magnetic field, accelerometer sensors, dual sim, dual stand by, OTG capability, OTA updates, 3000mAh battery, metal frame, and more great features better than Samsung S5 during that time (except air gesture) and looks like iPhone 6 Plus! ... all at the price a little higher than J2 Prime now! The only thing i don't like about it is that it is greedy on power, 3hrs max on online gaming, 8 hrs continues music, 3 hours movie, and camera is not as great as that on Samsung and Sony. And I'm still using it until now. Lesson is, why buy low end products from Samsung when you can have a better phone at the same price? By the way, most, if not all of these phones are either made in China or Taiwan... Peace.

  • the camera is good but everytime i put the filters on it gets darker. and when i use this for video calling on messenger, its so dark that i cant even see myself here. somebody help me please. pleaaaase.

  • Settings--> Application Manager --> (choose a application ex. messenger) --> (look for move to SD storage bar) --> clear data. You can do that to almost all your available application and save storage space. You are welcome.

  • Very dissapointing me, in every aspect this phone is great, the only problem is storage.., all apps was install in internal storage even if you have 2000000tb of external storage, its still no use...regret it,. #samsungpleasefix

  • Reset it if there are no options left. Turn it off . press power + volume up + home simultaneously. That would reset your phone and permanently delete your data. And restore it like fresh new phone. Hope it helps

  • You are definitely right. Its storage sucks.. I hate this phone.. Really hate.. In my opinion My Phone is the right one.. Its storage is great especially My Phone My22

  • I can download many apps and no problem with it

  • my phone Samsung glaxy J2 .when i ternued On .just screen show Samsung not going on . please help me

  • my phone Samsung glaxy J2 .when i ternued On .just screen show Samsung not going on . please help me

  • I can't find my internal 8gb memory. how can I get back pls reply me anyone.

  • is it ok to download videos and mp3 by connecting this device through computer? or is it prone to virus. waiting for the reply tnx im new to this phone

  • Please Samsung provide information on the addition of internal storage

  • I have J2 Prime having trouble when pressing the home button it is very slow to walk and has to repeat 3 times trial please note if the device is expecting upgrade to Android system version 7.0 Nougat

  • Your samsung galaxy j2 prime is very low qaulity in camera it compare to other samsung. And the screen resoLution is not almoled

  • my phone can download different apps..and it is updated..

  • I do not recommend you to buy this phone. It has limited capacity to download apps since its device memory is only 8gb and the apps on the fone itself eats 7.75 gb. Also you can not tansfer the built in apps to the sd card. Worst is you can not even view your pics in your gallery because it says not enough space to view pics. You can only download two apps. So frustrating why i chose this fone. Also you can receive sms/mms at times because it notifies you not enough spave when in fact you only have 4 messages. Camera is good. The only problem is its storage system.

  • Then buy a phone with high memory, s2 pid!

  • Can I ask if it's possible to update J2 Prime to Android Nougat? I really wanted to update my phone to Nougat. And if it's possible, I want to adjust storage or add more space. But how? The battery is good, and also the front camera, but not to good. Please Samsung, please update J2 Prime 2017 to the latest update which is the Nougat 7.0.1. I'm begging you, please. I badly want a Nougat update.

  • Same here. What i should i do

  • When I used videocall the camera is very dark. What happend?! What should I do? I just buy this phone last month.

  • How can I solve it? Same Problem

  • I love the phone, my only issue is that it does not allow u to download your files straight to SD card, u have to do it manually which cause the storage to full fast and it is very frustrating n I am beginning to hate the phone because of it. With my old phone never had that issue and for a Samsung it should be a upgrade not a downgrade. I have accepted I can't use the apps I would like because of space and everything going to internal storage although u have a memory card it sucks.

  • best mobile

  • i buy a samsung j2 prime i just charge in 1 hour and 30 mins 95%

  • Hi Samsung Glaxy J2 Prime is such a great and nice smart phone

  • I try to use it for video call but it is blurred and dark what should i do to make it clear... i just bought mine yesterday

  • Lack of internal memory. showing me 8gb internal memory that should be have 6 or 5gb free. unfortunately i cant install my favourite game.warning disk will appear on notification bar when i download more than 30mb each file. So i cant using my YouTube offline.

  • I also very angre use this mobil. I just bouth fews days. I never download anything. Memory full. ..memory card also cant use.

  • How do I root my phone

  • the sales lady said that its normal charging was 4hrs or 3 hrs

  • device were good so far. Lack of internal memory, i can use otg memory on this device.

  • I already decided to buy samsung J2 Prime. But to see the above command I am feeling disappointed to buy it. So now I am searching a new one.....

  • guys...im planning to buy this phone next week... i ask if it works perfectly without bugs or factory defect?

  • I already buy j2 prime samsung its too slow to fully charged it takes 3hrs. Its that a normal?

  • Can somebody please tell me how to move apps from internal storage to sd card? I love this phone. But it's storage is giving me issues. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one having trouble, right?

  • then maybe your SD card is a problem then.

  • I have j2 prime 2017..it can only full charge up to 80%..is it a software glitch or an issue on the phone itself? Tried to return it but the seller said, for j2 prime it's a known issue and just normal. PLS suggest any resolution. THANKS!!

  • Do not buy any phone with only 8GB internal memory (this phone included) bec you cannot install much apps even if you have 32gb sd card inserted. The apps are automatically downloaded on the phone before you can move them on the sd card. Note that some apps can not be moved to the sd card. If you want value for money, buy a phone that at least has 32gb internal memory (phone memory)

  • I really do not recommend it, because it is too slow for playing the game, lack of the memory. Also, it has a heating issue for MTK chip

  • I am not satisfied about this samsung j2 i cannot install apps that i want,take picture as long as i want make vedio im so stressed.

  • ROOT your phone & all will be fine. You can use the sd card. Uninstall those stupid preloaded app.

  • Same here... 8gb internal memory full with only facebook and 1 game installed (Mobile legends). Piece of Trash. Sd card also inserted

  • maybe you had bought a fake samsung galaxy j7 prime. I know there are so many fake smartphone out there which not original one.

  • its storage capacity is tooo bad but its camera is nice and no hang... but its good phone

  • Again a total garbage and black shitt .. it doesn't have 8 GB internal memory .. and you cant install apps on it .. wo wtf is this ? is this really a mobile ? please don't purchase it

  • it gets "memory full" by its own built in apps .. connot dedicate app on sd

  • I really wants to purchase this phone but from the comment that is in here make me wanna change my mind.. but some people just don't no how to use smart phone that can be the reason why but from the comments my mind is twisted

  • I'm getting confuse if I should buy this phone because as I can see from the feedbacks of the users they are not satisfied and get mad about this phone. This is my dream phone and I always crave for it to be mine but as of now I'm so frustrated if I continue to buy this phone. Sorry Samsung if I said some things that might hurt nor offend yuo but confusions comes out into my mind. Sorry sorry sorry

  • I don't know if I'm the only one who experience this but I think the sd card slot is no use! As I've got the phone, I bought 8gb memory and inserted it. I was so excited I can install any apps that I want and take photos. Unfortunately, I can't install them in my sd card. I was sad. Then to use my sd, I set my camera stprage to sd card. At first I see the photos I take. And after some minutes, as I review my photos again they got lost and I keep seeing exclamation point and the videos says "error occurred" also with music I downloaded in the sd card. So I thought the sd card I bought got virus. I scanned but nothing was found so I decided to buy a new one. And the same thing happens. I'm so frustrated. My phone was of no interesting use. Maybe I can only use it for fb and google. Tssk How can I fix this??? Please reply I need an answer. Do not frustrate your costumer.

  • Please...please don't go for this mobile...because lot of Wi-Fi problems...every 10th mins Wi-Fi disconnecting and automatically reconnect the Wi-Fi

  • I have used both S2 and S4 and was astounded at the J2 Prime. I do not understand why with the technology available Samsung have made such an inferior product. It has only 8g of storage and because the apps built into it use nearly all of it. there is little point in try to download your own choices as there is no room for them. I am extremley disappointed Samsung I would have thought after the S7 Note fiaso you would be looking to gain customer confidence not disillusion them even more.

  • Update its software regularly it will solve low storage problem and make sd card as internal never happen because samsung dont want users to face lag in apps.

  • Why is it there are built-in apps in this phone like facebook, onedrive..when in fact, if it reaches the maximum memory to update such we can no longer update it since the apps cannot be moved to SD card. Aside from that, one disadvantages of this phone is you cannot make SD card as your default location to store new apps, music, pictures downloaded from the internet. It has to go first with the phone then you have to move it to sd card, but there are some applications which are not movable. How Sad. This is my first Samsung phone.

  • Camera is not good, go to samsung j5 2015 for better display, and camera.

  • I bought this device and i regretted it.. it only has 8GB storage but only 1.5 is usable and theres also no feature where you can convert external storage to internal.. I just bought this device and it already kept notifying me with low internal storage.. I'm really mad and disappointed at the same time.. it feels like I just wasted money to buy this device. Please add a feature where you can format ext storage to internal..

  • Is it possible to make the sd card the default storage because it only has 8gb and i can't download my favorite apps? Need your reply pls

  • you might not have mounted the sd card first

  • Having the same problem! I brought the phone back to the store and they said it's the SD card that is corrupted. So they replaced it... But today, same thing happened! Brought itback again but the manager wasn't there so I have to wait...

  • Absolutely right.haha

  • very best phone

  • Check if you have apps that are using the screen overall (in my case the bluelight filter app Twilight) disable those when prompted then it should work as it should.

  • the apps installed uses a lot of the internal memory. need to get high capacity sd card

  • the camera quality is great but am totally disappointed with this phone storage and there is no lights to alert you when u get a message or when it is charging really disappointed

  • the quality of the phone is phenomenon however I am disappointed on its internal memory, it says 8 gb and I was expecting that i'll be able to use halfor a quarter or so but then i downloaded a couple of apps that I always use and now its notifying that I am not running out of storage, for short the device only entrusted 1 gb only... now i need to move all my apps to my external memory for my device to run normally

  • Having problems with screen layover pop-up message and is stopping me from giving my apps permission and even completely using some of them. I've already tried factory restore and changing relevant settings but i still get back to the same problem..any knowledge on this?

  • Please upgrade OS 7.0 Nougat

  • Is it true that system memory of this phone is 7gb?

  • Naugat update plz

  • I'm in dilemma, to buy J2 Prime or Vivo y25, can you guys give me some idea which one is more better?? J2 Prime Or Vivo y25? :')

  • I have a problem with using sd cards. At first I used a 2gb sd card and its functioning good. Then I want to download more apps and photos so I needed to buy a much larger cpacity sd card. I tried 8 gb. And damn! I cannot download apps through the sd card. I can't even move them. And worst. My photos which are saved in sd card are corrupted. So I thought maybe the sd card have some issues so I tried to buy again another 8 gb. I really checked it and it's good. And then after hours, same thing happened. My photos got corrupted again. And my apps still can't be moved. What shall I do now? I think the problem is not with the sd cards. It's the phone! Someone who can help me about it please

  • FM Radio problem.... Its weak in receiving good signal compared to my old Samsung J2 2015 where the sound is loud and stereo... Note.. I am listening to that radio station using these two phones in the same area... Any help please... Thanks

  • I have a problem with the FM radio.. Its loud but its low in receiving stereo sound when i compare it with my Samsung J2 2015 which its FM radio sound is loud and stereo... I am so disappointed with the radio since i am a radio dependent and not so much on the Music Player.... How can I solve this problem to achieve the quality of sound that I want to hear...???

  • but the downloadble apps. cant move to sd card.. its on device storage already

  • I am disappointed with this phone as well storage is seriously inadequate the phone is a budget phone and the apps are on a budget as well not good

  • This is the perfect solution. All others just know how to complain. Better learn hoe to use a phone properly first before complaining of memory problems. LOL

  • I recommend you only get the 16gb version of it as the operating system itself is approximately 7gb. People say that there is a storage issue but really this is due to people not buying the 16gb version

  • This is my favorite phones!

  • It always give problems when comes to storage so it's unnecessary to put 8g when its 7g...i reach to a point where I was fedup with this ,and break my e.g. memory card..

  • Gud afternoon ppl's,thinking of buying this phone 2mor,is dis a gud phone to buy?,not in to games and videos or anything like dat,will only use it fa whatsapping and taking a few pics and short videis

  • well that's good to know since storage is an problem. Also, which company memory card should i use? Samsung EVO is a bit expensive so is it alright if i use another company?

  • Not a heavy user Its a great phone with great performance, just because it is a budget phone which means it has no much features just like the galaxy j5 and up. In storage problem What I did is, 1. I open each built in application as well as the ones that I don't need the most. 2. I cleared thei data, uninstalled all the updates and then disabled For downloaded apps I moved their data to external storage Now I had 1.5 GB free storage remaining

  • is this phone works to t mobile sim card that came from some school agencies in usa, since this phone is open line.? Is that possible to work out..?kindly reply asap.thank you

  • Its Good android Phone :)

  • Very good mobile

  • Just bought my handset last may 11 2017... there were several auto shut down if play games... or watching videos how can i fix this

  • You should move your apps to your SD card so that you can maximize your device storage. Always clear cached data, it may also help. Disable some system apps that you weren't using.

  • 8G internal memory, but the system memory is already 7G+. so disappointed, can't install apps :(

  • I ❤ this phone . For the price is very good

  • This is my problem too. What will we do?

  • How can I download new App store into my phone using SD card storage?

  • this phone is good but hanging problem is also showing in this phone camera is so good but it is not better and not is enough due to oppo and so many others we like west quality in samsung battery is also bad.

  • Storage problems😭

  • First, camera issues-once you use camera on messanger picture and videos were zoom in once send.. Second, storage problem- i cant even move some downloaded apps..once you purchase the phone its nice that it has lots of apps but the thing is it was deducted to your internal storage which is about 8GB... And you cannot set external storage as primary..merging was not allowed..-.- Third, camera was not so good its always blurry to the extent that your face is about to smudge and disappear hahahaha

  • Is this a good phone? i need a budget phone here can you suggest me one (from samsung) or this one will do great? help & thanks

  • Lagger. and you cant expand your storage

  • you cannot expand your phone memory.

  • The phones was.... only problem is the storage... many apps cannot move in sd card.. every time I install new apps

  • You just said that the phone you bought is under smart and with that u can only use smart and tnt sims.

  • How to expand my phone memory? using my 16gb sdcard,how can I expand my 8gb internal storage? help please

  • Unless you erase phone data or restore factory just go to settings then backup and reset

  • Review after some time use: 1.Screen has a low resolution but you can play 1080p videos which is nice and screen is bright and colours are really great, so not that bad. 2.Performance of the phone is great even with 1.5gb RAM, it's not much but what do you expect in this price range? 3.The battery of this phone is excellent, even on Mobile Data. It will easily last you a full day, even more with light usage. 4.The build quality is plastic but at least the sides are metal so not a premium feel but it's got a solid grip and not slippery. 5.The camera is not that good, but the front one is not that bad especially with front flash. 6.The storage is a major problem as with only a couple of apps and a few pics and videos storage was almost full, but i think apps can be moved to SD Card(not sure). 7.You get almost all Samsung features such as Grace UI and power saving modes. 8.The size is perfect, not too big, not too small. Just remember, this a super budget phone and a Samsung one, so it is supposed to have less features but their customer service is just excellent. Definitely better than J3(2016).

  • Already sdcard used 16gb but always same at storage. Really feel dissapointed this phone. Much more better j502.

  • Already used sdcard 16gb but same all time. Any suggestion?

Shame to Samsung world

  • Buy new sd card

  • In this phone j2 prime, this is fast and no lags. The only problem on this is the storage.. hahaha. I bought SD card with 24 gb. Now i can use it like downloading apps and videos etc. MY OPINION IS YOU JUST NEED TO BUY HIGH SD CARD SO YOU CAN USE IT HAPPILY. thanks hahah. And!! You can move the apps to SD card so the phone will no problem. Have a nice moment😗😚

  • J2 Pro The Benchmark Result Is Not Better Then This Device (J2 Prime) Except For The 2GB Ram Otherwise Is Mediocre. J3 Pro China Product Better Than J2 Pro But Not Better Then This Device (J2 Prime) Except For The 2GB Ram Otherwise Is Mediocre.

  • If U Want A Better J Device Go For J7 Prime, A Series 2017 (A3, A5 & A7) Device Also Recommended. This Device Is Great But The Internal Storage Might Not Satisfy You.

  • samsung note 5 the best camera so clear and smooth result

  • I want to buy a new Samsung mobile but m confused b/w J2 pro and J3 pro.....can anyone advice me that, which is more better.....pls?

  • why my phone self restarted everyday even though im not using it much?....

  • why my phone self restarted everyday even though im not using it much?....

  • Go to setting, bottom of the menu you can see reset..

  • Better buy a micro SD as its internal is just 8GB (that leaves you with about 5GB free after the bloatwares)

  • good morning i have a problem with my j2 prime,the storage is always full but i only have 2 apps.what is the solution here

  • HI, can i insert an micro sd card on this phone? I cannot find where to insert the an external sd card?

  • hi! there is something on my DATA i cant use my data now without WiFi...... may i know what am i going to do???

  • Hi. Goodevening..I have a problem with my phone..i don't know how to format the storage device..I'm wondering why is it my storage device is full but theres no picture,audios,etc. inside..i need help..how to format the storage device.

  • hello! I have a problem sending a message. Can anyone tell me why?

  • I spent the same in my wifi network I said error and that could not be updated for lack of connection to the probe server with another network and update normally change network and try

  • Have been using this phone for 2 weeks now and everything works perfectly well but software update always fails to register the device. What could be the reason?

  • Im using snapcamera now, you can adjust the saturation, exposure and lots of settings and scene.

  • The camera is good but if you send photos by whatsapp they come out dark but it is not a problem of the smarphone if not of android 6 I hope they solve it with some update as advice I recommend you always look for good audio and good pictures go for a sony xperia

  • I'm planning to buy a new phone with good quality camera. I'm thinking, if this Samsung J2 Prime is eligible of what I want. Is it good enough? Or not? Please, give me a piece of advice. Especially, for those who already used this kind of phone. Thank You.

  • Yes I realize that the camera is very cloudy and lacks colour. I was trying to adjust the setting, but it has no option for that.

  • The device is very nice but if he will get the update over the air?

  • typical samsung

  • No doubt its a good handset...bt phn memory only 8 gb...

  • i am also disappointed, cannot change sd card as default storage, and also when i typing , its very lag

  • During video calling the camera is so dark, i couldnt even see myself clearly

  • Go to My Files, click on the Folder you want to move to your SD Card, long press the image or video you want to transfer to your SD Card, click on the 3-dots icon in the upper right corner of your phone screen. You can see option there "Move", click on that and you're done. Remember "long press" the item you want to transfer. If you don't long press it, you can't see the "Move" option.

  • The Blu Dash M2 has 4gb of storage on board and android 6.0 an higher allows you to use the SD card as internal storage. Samsung however limits there OS to only use the on-board storage.

  • After i bought this j2 prime for a week...the storage was already insufficient.Amount of storage is full.Always.The the downloaded apps are only whatsapp and joox.After 3 months i cant download anything. I have cleared up everything i could. But yeah everything just stopoed working.very dissappointed.

  • J2 prime is good, my only problem is very cloudy camera and pale color.

  • This is normal because you cant get the whole 8GB of internal. 3.2GB will remain because of the preloaded apps, software and firmware thats why you only get 3.2GB of internal. This also happen on any android device (any brand) that has 8GB of internal. Samsung never cheated you on that matter nor any other brand.

  • Editing ROM Instead of RAM Though ROM is 8 GM but it performing as similar as 2GB. Even in my mobile there is very few apps & maximum are found with mobile when purchased. Always showing internal storage full. so what king of cheating this by Samsung. Totally disgusting......................................­­...........................................­.....­........!! I have shown to Samsung customer Service in Mohakhali, Mirpur(sawrapara) many times but they just do softener update & show me onlt 3.2GM spare free. But when i start to using , after one day it as like as before. They can't do anything. Is this my guilty why I purchased this brand mobile?

  • Though Ram is 8 GM but it performing as similar as 2GB. Even in my mobile there is very few apps & maximum are found with mobile when purchased. Always showing internal storage full. so what king of cheating this by Samsung. Totally disgusting......................................­................................................­........!!

  • Vivo y53 is BETTER, I've got a hands on comparison between my Vivo y53 and Samsung Galaxy j2 prime. y53's front and rear camera is sharper and colorfu. The design is slimer and lighter. Antutu benchmark hits 35k while j2 hits 32k only. My y53 can run nba2k17 ,gta san andreas in high resolution. At last 16gb internal storage and 2gb of ram seals the deal. Both phones are same at price of 5,990 php. BE PRACTICAL guys 😉

  • cannot download more apps...its disgusting..it cannot change sd card as default storage..so you end up storage is always full or running out...fucked.

  • How do i get all my storage to sd card

  • Well, that's the problem with Shared Memory. It has about over 4GB already occupied by the core system software. So it effectively has less than 4GB of internal storage

  • Can it be upgraded to Nougat

  • Walton primo NX4 is better than samsan j2 and j2 prime

  • i have some problem in my phone j2 prime wifi connection left after 30 or 40 minuets what can i do plz tell me

  • it's a nice phone but the capacity is a bit an isue and the batery life is average

  • At My Area It Cost Around $260 Dollar.

  • True. Cons For This Device Is Storage Capacity.

  • But Benchmark Wise J2 Prime 33k vs S4 Mini 18k, Camera Is Not That Important Unless You Are A Selfie Kind Of Person. Storage/Display/Ram/Battery/Platform/Sound Is Mainly Important.

  • Benchmark/Spec = Tie

  • When i install the CPU-Z app to my galaxy j2 prime and when you open this app it says my device has 3.55 GB of internal?? Or 8GB is joke?

  • J2 prime VS grand prime +

  • Worst camera ever. Even galaxy s4 mini is way better

  • Hey guys if you only explore the features of the Android 6 you wouldn't complain about the storage of your devices no matter how much storage you have on your phone because you can just format your SD card as part of internal memory. Please search for.Adoptable memory for Android 6. Now if you to have a better.phone you should buy the high end devices of samsung. Why are you guys kept on complaining for the cheap amount, asking for too much? Come on!!!

  • J5 Prime & J7 Prime (Coming Nougat Update). What About (J2 Prime)? Any Source........

  • Only External Apps From Google Play Store (Move To SD), Internal Apps You Might Consider To Disable It, As To Save Some Space For Your Internal Storage.

  • Can you move installed apps into SD card or only preinstalled apps??

  • Hello I bought this samsung j2 prime When im charging it there's no indicator that its charging Like some android there's a red light when its charging and when its full charge it turns to green color. Is it normal to this phone.

  • Disable Apps and Move Apps To SD (If Could Install Apps That Can Move To SD, Rather Then Apps That Install Directly To Your Internal). Bonus AIO Cleaner (Device Manager).

  • Could Download More If You Disable Apps.

  • yes

  • Trade-In My J1 Mini Prime A few Days Ago For This Device So Far Great (Fast & Smooth), Except For Internal Storage (Disable Some Unused Default Apps (Few System App As Well) + Device Manager + Ultra Data Saving Mode). Little Better Then J5 Prime In Terms Of Battery Life & Benchmark Wise (33377): Beat J2 (2015) (20927), J2 (2016) (214197) & J3 (2016) (25003) In Terms Of Spec & Speed. It A Powerhouse Device.

  • Same problem i encountered.. dissapointed

  • you need factory data reset and clear data all of the apps and disable if not using them and do not updates.

  • Y cant i open my samsung j2 prime..everytime in the morning..i have to remove the battery.. is it on the system?

  • Yes

  • Does it have light sensor for auto brightness change??

  • i purchased the galaxy prime j2 recently and i have to get a new memory card as my previous one is not opening.

  • What did you do to solve the storage problem encountered by other J2 prime users?

  • Disable all the Apps your not using like all Microsoft apps and others not important. .. go to settings/Applications. .. then tap each app and disable. .. your are all welcome!!

  • Yeah..we have same issue right now..did you already know how to fix this issue?

  • Bought one for friend for light use, Very low storage usable, only 3.3GB, After install some important and system update left around 2.5GB.

  • j2 is imcompatible to everything. it's hard to transfer file from pc to cell. you have to convert. you need to have the mtp compatible. my external drive cannot read it.

  • We have same issue..im so tired of this..i regret buying this phone j2 prime

  • 8gb but I can install only 5 apps? Amazing

  • I have the same problem too..I am asking the management of their help on how to fixed it.

  • Maybe you have not yet moved them but copied. . try to check if you already have the file in your SD card then deletes those ones from internal memory.

  • prashad tharanga

  • my wife has a J2 and the application manager DOES NOT allow you to transfer apps to your SD card. I have that facility on my older prime core Lte. Even Spark staff has surrendered on that issue. so if you give advice do know if a model can do it or not or otherwise show me how to do it as all the other experts cannot. So I know look at getting her the J3 to help with this frustrating issue. cheers.

  • I need your help guys , I am using SAMSUNG GALAXY J2 PRIME right now .I already moved all my apps,pcturs, musics but what wrong with this? My nternal memory still full.... how to fix this?

  • i've had this phone for almost about a month now and as someone who's fond of downloading apps and games, it's not worth it. but if you're using it just to take pictures and listen to music then it's okay, as long as you use your sd card to store your music and photos. the camera isn't the greatest but it isn't bad either. 8gb internal was the downfall of this phone. over the course of about a month, i've had to factory reset the phone almost every week. once i had to factory reset it twice in one night. the only reason i bought this was because it was a 2017 model, the only one in it's price range with android 6.0 (which is now outdated because there's already android 7.0), my mother persuaded me that samsung is a respectable brand and i wouldn't regret my purchase, and lastly because i had no idea how bad 8gb internal was. i'm not saying you shouldn't buy it, i'm saying that i wouldn't recommend it to anyone. you could get a better phone than this but you have to spend a little more (it costs 5,600 to 5,990 PHP, better phones would set you back a couple thousand more but it wouldn't exceed 10,000 PHP) apart from the sad excuse for internal storage, i've noticed another issue (i'm not sure if it's just caused by the protective glass), but sometimes the touch screen would just hold any input you give it at random times. for example, tapping the backspace button would sometimes hold it on it's own and would erase a whole paragraph. it's a phone with a lot of potential, sadly all that potential was wasted with the 8gb internal memory.

  • absolutely it's really great for a budget phone

  • Is the camera good when using in video call in messenger and etc? Is it clear? Thanks

  • im planning to buy samsung j2 prime however as i read majority of the reviews and comments i have this thought, is it worth to buy? because there are lots of negative reviews/comments bout the specs.

  • yes i just got this phone about a week ago , & i am already having storage issues. that should not be happening. i dont have much downloaded. i wish this problem would get fixed. i was an iphone user and i know you can have a lot more storage. i even have a 64 gb sd card. but that isnt helping because i cant move ALL apps to the sd card. so i cant download anything else and its frustrating . this is a HUGE downfall to a great phone. love everything else except this. PLEASE FIND A WAY TO FIX !

  • i'm planing to buy samsung j2 prime. is it worth buying and a nice phone?

  • Is it right to buy Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime?

  • I also have the same problem i already moved all my apps to sd card but still, it says memory full. Err!

  • I had the same problem but you should move the apps to the sd card

  • Same with my J2prime,I bought it 1 week ago..I dowoaded only 2 apps messenger and insta square and its already saying storage full. I think 8gb is just a joke!

  • No LWD notification on J2prime

  • Why does my new j2 prime cant download apps anymore...it is already full even i deleted same files...pls let me know what to do.

  • Whats wrong with my new j2 prime. Plz help,the device memory is already full,ive had to delete some files but still the device cant save pictures. "Thereis something applications dosnt work" This message always appear in my fone. Sorry bout my english.response plz.tnx

  • maybe its because you use it on a charger

  • why samsung galaxy j2 prime when installed bbm and opera, and if I set the screen display to outdoor fast heat at the top of the phone.

  • You can move the app, but it hss to be one by one. You should go to the applicatio managamente and click on the app you would like to swap to the sd storage. The it would be a option that allows you to do it. Good luck

  • its worth to buy this one, but a little bit disadvantage on it was its battery for an LTE device it needs to be 3000 or 3000+ mAh to last within a day for an heavy user. that's why this phone comes with ultimate power saving mode feature.

  • Which mobile is better to buy samsung galaxy j2 pro or samsung galaxy j2 prime

  • Anyone there updated there j2 prime with baseband version G532GDXU1AQA3?

  • Is that right to buy samsung galaxy j2 prime,Tell me...

  • mbile 4g no working what the problem

  • u should regret. lol

  • Same problem here. Just bought this last March 19, 2017. You only have 1GB free ROM but you can't use all of that 1gb either. Once you only have 300MB free left, you're already in red alert for having insufficient storage. Should i regret buying this now?

  • I have the same problem with you. There seems to be no way to select the sd card as primary storage device. I hope somebody figures out and shares it with us

  • That's the sensor when you pickup the phone call

  • I have this smartphone for the first time, but I am not sure how to enable the second SIM slot to add a second micro sd. Anybody knows how to do it?

  • After the big sysytem update which is 300+mb .. my internal storage shows that 7gb are used by the new system software and only 1gb are available to use ..!! I can only use 1gb out of 8gb of its ROm !!.. did you find the same problem guys ? Help me plsss. Im not using Sd card so far..

  • Now I found this was a good phone with great spec! just its ram only 1.5 but overall this is still a great phone to use

  • Buy a dslr. That is just a phone with a feature of a camera and a computer in your pocket.

  • I just want to know if what was the use of two dots beside the front camera of samsung j2 prime ?

  • Why samsung j2 prime drains fast when its battery has 2600mah unlike samsung j1 2016. Anyone have the same problem?

  • Is there an option to lock the screen when in-calls so call will not be hold?

  • RM499

  • how much > ? very good specs details :) i love it

  • Thanks

  • Resolutions (not all of them) 320*240 - lowest 640*360 960*540 qHD 1280*720 HD 1920*1080 FHD 2560*1440 QHD - highest Yes, between qHD and HD, HD is better but if you are looking for something better you can opt 3840 x 2160 4k which is 4 times the qHD resolution

  • so which is better, qhd or hd, for gaming,watching videos and surfing please answer?

  • qHD or Quad High Definition is high definition resolution (720p) times four, specified as 2560x1440 at 16:9 aspect ratio (wide screens have more horizontal pixels like TV, they got 3440). Usually used in high-end phones (S7 & Edge, LG G5, Galaxy Note 5). It can give you over 500 pixels per inch on 5.7 inch of display. HD is High Definition, specified as 720x1280, mostly used on mid-rangers, and can only bring you less than 300 pixels per inch on 5.5 inch display.

  • For gaming...i think u should thinking buying xiaomi or any phone with snapdragon proccesor with minimum 2gb ram with 16gb internal

  • qhd, quarter hd or1/4 of high defintion

  • qHD mean quarter HD 1/4 of full HD

  • I hve some problem with the storage. Although my sd card is still full but there still noti came up to free up my phone space. Someone please explain what can i do to overcome this problem.

  • We are all have the same problem here with storage and we cannot do anything about it unless the apps u have downloaded can change to external.also the camera is not good in taking selfie indoors.u can only take good pictures using this phone when outdoors. This phone is just good as back up phone and also if u are not a heavy user who love to download stuff this phone is not for you.aside from memory and front camera issue this phone is still great.

  • How can I turn on LED NOTIFICATION? cant see it on settings. I am running on Marshmallow

  • Battery way too low...

  • my boss bought it for me as an advance bday gift. I really like it though, the only problem is the camera really isn't that good. thats the only complain that I have so far...

  • what phone is good for Apps, games and watching movie !!

  • If you would like to change the storage of the phone .. you should go to the browser . And find the settings .. i guess its in advanced .. there you can change the storage ..

  • hello friend's, i want know whats the difference between qhd and hd dishplay, please explain?thanks.

  • Be grateful guys. You get to feel Note7's user interface with this phone. :)

  • How come that Grand Prime plus and J2 Prime have almost all the same features and physical appearance? The only thing is J2 Prime is sold way way cheaper that the Grand Prime+.

  • I just bought my J2 Prime yesterday. So far so good i just downloaded 10 apps after buy. No bothering so far

  • Is it normal ? . . i think it will keep rebooting/restarting when there is not enough internal storage.,try to delete some apps or videos to maximize some space.. i did it and it works so far... Try if it will work on you..

  • I bought this phone yesterday... I almost like it but I discouraged the camera its no clear and fine .. and also the pictures displayed are blured.. What should I do on this

  • How does it works?

  • Go to Applications then find "apps that can draw over top" after that turn off the apps that are turned on in there. Go back to the app example: Messenger, go to permissions then turn on camera and microphone. You should be good. :)

  • tried that. i even searched the net but j2 prime really don't have that feature even if it is already running on android 6.0 marshmallow. is there another way?

  • how to adopt sd card as storage?

  • Hi how do i do this

  • same issue here..

  • How can i do it?

  • Just bought mine last Feb. 25 and i cant use the camera. Screen overlay always appear. What shall I do? Thanks.

  • Adopt the external storage as internal storage to make the sdcard usable in downloading games, saving pictures and etc. That's the new feature of android marshmallow for low rom smartphones.....

  • True

  • same here

  • Hey! For your info...watever brand you bought! they all have thesame issues! because theres no perfect brand! i've been used iphone, samsung, oppo, o-plus, cherry mobile, my sisters tried to used alcatel, nokia ---we almost all mobile brands! But same problems! But, my brother has samsung J2prime and its working well..all apps are working well! because the is no perfect brand!

  • Helpme guys .ill just got this phone recently .. its pretty satisfying but .. i have sone issues . When i dont use it for an hour maybe 2-3 hrs. It keep restsrting ..i dony know y . Help me guys

  • you guys are all ignorant. Samsung now is sucks! they are using TFT display which is not good. Poor viewing angle and more battery consumption. TFT display means thin film transistor and lower to IPS display. IPS is the upgraded display type of TFT and TFT is much cheaper that is why they are using it.

  • i think J2 prime very better in the camera, but that storage too small...user can't be hope using application too much from google play store even though that shit had external memory...

  • been using j2 prime for 3 days, here's my personal review: 1. low storage - only 3.2gb available even before installing any apps. you can move some apps to sd card using appmgr iii 2 good battery - 1.5 days even using 2 sims 3. looks good 4. very good software - lots of features plus updates are always available 5. passable camera - some pics are good some are bad. i believe software update will fix this.

  • There is a new update about 400mb i downloded it and it fixed this cam issue on vedio call i have the grand prime plus its similar to j2 prime if its not the same phone so try to update it

  • There is a new update about 400mb i downloded it and it fixed this cam issue on vedio call i have the grand prime plus its similar to j2 prime if its not the same phone so try to update it

  • I don't have any problem with this J2 Prime. always update software regularly

  • In messenger and imo videos quality are very dark.no one can see me.plz tell me how can i slove that if anyone have idea sare me plz.....i feel tension

  • samsung video darkness is a concern in all my samsung galaxy units. but I found a workaround... Set your exposure to higher light value, then the wash out video will normalize... its just extra work

  • 1. Go to device “Settings”, then select “Storage”. 2. Select your "SD Card", then tap the “three-dot menu“ (top-right), now select “Settings” from in there. 3. Now select “Format as internal”, and then “Erase & Format”. 4. Your SD Card will now be formatted as internal storage. 5. Reboot your phone.

  • Dont ever buy this fone or any samsung fones with cheap price, Samsung misleading their customers. There r better options for dis price in other brands. You can not use even 3 messenger apps on this. internal memory 8 gb from dat 4.5 gb system memory(which u cant clear or edit). Even external SD card wont solve the issue. Plz dont buy it...

  • Hi? Really? Is awesome? I just wanted to get that phone from a globe plan...

  • Ok, different markets different names (typical for Samsung), but fact is that this phone worth maximum 60-80 euros. J3 2016, or J5 2015 is way better phone with Super Amoled HD display (in same price, about 140 euros) like this Grand Prime plus, J2 Prime etc..

  • 6.0 is actually really well optimized. It makes 5.0 look like a high school computer class project. I have a single core netbook (meant to use windows 7 starter) with 1gb of ram that I installed stock 6.0 on using the android x86 archives. It runs better than my old gs5 did on 5.0. So I think you shouldn't have a problem with this newer one on 6.0.

  • Hi Please help me When i use the selfie by skype or line for video call all video is so much darker than other phones How i can solve my problem?

  • Which is better when you want performance for playing games? Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime or Samsung Galaxy J5(2015). Here where I live J2 Prime going for $299 and J5 for 429.

  • So.... How did you find It ? is it good ?

  • Thanks man . but if you have the mobile what do you Think About the Preformance And Speed . i'm Woried About that Because I'm Afraid that The Android 6.0 is big On the mobile.

  • just installed link2sd app and purchased the plus version.. then your apps can be move to your external sd Note: use minimum SD Card speed class 10 and your SD will perform better

  • It's got pretty good picture. It's got 220 ppi. My last 10.1" tab had 149 ppi, with 10.1", this is 5 and some inches with 220 ppi. It'll be good.

  • Apple retina displays all have ppi of 269, and my old tablet had 1280*800 10.1" and ppi of 149, it looked great, so ya I'd say 220 is no problem.

  • The Mobile Is Amazing but the Pixales Are 220 . Does It Affect the resolution Much ? Please answer me fast because I am going to by it this week and I need to be sure.

  • The Mobile Is Amazing but the Pixales Are 220 . Does It Affect the resolution Much ? Please answer me fast because I am going to by it this week and I need to be sure.

  • Yuk no thanks rather front LED!!

  • i have same prob.according to samsung customer service they will upgrade it and waiting for the software maybe 2 weeks...so save your files before you go to samsung service center

  • Win

  • The same with mine in snow its dark even when at messenger

  • I also same

  • I'm buying it today, hopefully it will work well

  • It looks exactly the same as Galaxy Grand Prime except for the front camera flash..

  • asus zenfone go ZB500KL 2gb ram, 16gb rom RM499

  • Agreed.just bought 1 today

  • I have one of these phones its a great phone but it same to don't have a notification and a battery charging light.but you can use the back camera light for notification

  • you can't do that with samsung phone

  • You can do video call via facebook messenger app for android and ios. For apple phone you can use via facetime app. : )

  • So far so good no problem so far

  • grrr i bought new big screen phone because im too addicted for snow apps snapchat and all video apps but it didnt support video apps too dark front cam and back i think this is a defective unit and sell as a new one

  • do anyone know how to set the phone to make it store apps on the sd card?

  • i have the same probleme video call is to dark but when i take selfie its good, did you found how to fix that?

  • open contacts, select the contact you want to call, there will be an option for video calls.

  • How can I use the video call? Comment Please?

  • you're wrong, it supports video call

  • yes,,,you right

  • too many pre-installed apps take up a lot of memory, such as Microsoft apps, Samsung apps and Google apps

  • It supports video calls

  • It´s a great phone. I´m very happy with it. The only thing I would change it´s the screen for one Amoled. I buy two days before the J1 Ace, and I buy this later because has better specification. Even when the processor it´s 1.4 and the Ace 1.5, I prefered this one.

  • samsung less creative now, phone look almost similiar, just upgrade ram or chipset, use same name and just add 2016 behind it :v

  • J3 2016 or J2 Prime ?

  • Can not forget to mention that this device - by code SM-G532 - has been launched in other countries as "Galaxy Grand Prime + (Galaxy Gran Prime Plus)".

  • Hello Guys, I need your Opinion about this J2 Prime.. because I'm Interested to buy, guys do you think this is good, Nice Phone?

  • i want to purchaches samsung j2 prime

  • SD410 Sucks. MediaTek MT6737T is a much better chipset.

  • 8MP? Jeez

  • The camera not support video call..im regrets buying this phone.. Not recommended to the person who like to video call..

  • best phone ever seen..

  • 8mp is for camera

  • Look at the price mate. Dont expect too much :D

  • It seems like Samsung releases one to two phones per week.

  • 8MP ram ... DON'T BUY IT. Phones need 16MP to operate. With 8MP you constantly run out of space.

  • Hhahaha... I agree about your opinion, dud :-D

  • Is this phone better than j2 (2016)? Tell me please..

  • because you update too many app. like microsoft app, no need update only you want to used, than you update.

  • i want to buy this phone next week.

  • I'm planning to buy this phone :)

  • This phone in Malaysia only sell RM499.00. This phone is okay for me because i don't download so many app or game. For me, RM499.00 have QHD 5' Sceen, 4G, 5MP for Secondary Camera, 8 MP Primary Camera, Quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 is a very good phone. So many people said the ROM only have 8GB, I think is okay because this phone only sell RM 499.00, If you want the Big ROM should buy more high Price phone and should no buy this phone.

  • So good

  • no super AMOLED?? wth

  • It is on Android 6.0.1

  • the app. took 4.5 G from the 8 G memory of the phone and the rest of space 3.5 can not stand to what we want to download . and another problem when put the SD card and move the app. its remain in the memory.So why SAMSUNG use such low memory.and why the hard 8 G is full while I download just 900 M.B .PLEASE ANSWER ME ITS MY FIRST SMART PHONE

  • Remember it is on 6.0, so it may contain bugs not present in 6.0.1 (the usual Marshmallow flavour for Samsung)

  • I adjust but it doesnt work. I guess it is software problem. I dont advise this phone to anybody. Just it is for simple use

  • wow

  • Try to adjust your phone's brightness

  • Hello. I bought J2 prime 2 days ago. Actually I didn`t like it and its camera when using in messenger, skype and so on is so dark. I can not see myself. It is so dark. Could you help pls?

  • I am using this pbone about 2 weeks and I didnt face any problems or lags, even I am plaing RR3 and WoT Blitz I am totally fine this phone and I think it is worthy for its price

  • yes every thing is cool in this world one is nokia.hahaha always nokia. Is?

  • J2 Always had some weird chipsets with it.Like some experimental product.J2 2016 had Spreadtrum SC8830,which idk who tf makes it.The 2015 j2 model had Exynos but connections problems.Now low end mediatek.Samsung is testing out chipsets on his entry level phones and selling them at mid range price. At least Grand Prime had SD 410,which is still used on LG phones (or at least newer versions of SD 400 series).

  • Best

  • better if 120g.......160g is a brick.

  • It literally has the same specs as the Galaxy Grand Prime if we dont count the chipset. I have one (sadly) and when I compare it to the photos of J2 Prime, every little single details are the same (if we dont count the forward facing flashflight). I think that Samsung still had some pieces of the Grand Prime left so they just took of what was left and made another phone out of it.

  • Phone is Cool

  • I dont understand. j1-j1mini- j1nxt -j1 ace - j12016 - j1 4g- j1 mini prime j2 - j2 2016-j2 pro j3 -j3 2016 - j3 pro j5 - j5 2016 - j5 prime j7 3g- j7 4g - j7 2016 - j7 prime why not drop jjjjjjjjjjjjj?????????????

  • I am big fan of samsung......no super amoled .....no smart phone......Samsung down to flopppppp

  • Hey Samsung! Why chipset mediatek ? for me is question! why?

  • to bad it's running on 1,5gb ram, thats realy bad

  • this is a grand prime phone

  • I know the processor and the front flash are the differing features between the two phones. and that is a very very very very very minimal difference. Which takes me back to my question. Samsung should stop this crap.

  • why they switch to mediatek... this is a junk phone!

  • The first Samsung device with Mediatek processor. Too bad it is running in a 32 bit environment on a 64 bit processor.

  • You obviously don't read! Grand Prime have Snapdragon processor. J2 Prime have a Mediatek processor. Two different worlds.

  • So what is the difference between Galaxy Grand Prime, and Galaxy J2 Prime? Samsung should stop taking people for a ride!
