Making its debut on July 10, the handset’s entry-level specs include a 5-inch qHD (960×540-pixels) display, an 8-megapixel rear camera and a front-facing 5-megapixel shooter.

Running the latest version of Android (5.1 Lollipop), the Galaxy Grand Prime is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core processor with 8GB of internal storage. It also has 4G LTE support and a microSD expansion card slot.

Sprint will sell the Galaxy Grand Prime for $30 with a two-year service agreement or $240 without a contract. Qualified buyers can also spread equipment costs out over the span of two years at a rate of $10 per month.
