Background and Identification

The Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Duos Android phone is a variant of the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime line. The Core Prime line includes the flagship SM-G360F, the SM-G360G model for Taiwan, the Boost Mobile Samsung Galaxy Core Prime (SM-G360P), the Core Prime Duos (SM-G360H/DS or SM-G360H/Dual-Sim), and the Galaxy Win 2 Duos TV (SM-G360BT/DS) for Brazil. The Prime Duos variant was released in white, grey, and black bodies.

The Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Duos is very similar to the other Core Prime models but includes Dual-SIM capabilities. The Dual-SIM model includes two SIM card slots, allowing one SIM card to be in use while the other is in standby.

Like the other Core Prime variants, the Duos model has a 4.5-inch display and a 1.2Ghz Quad-Core processor. The phone also includes a 2000 mAh non-removable battery. (A non-removable battery is one whose adhesive is permanent, making repair and replacement difficult). All of the Core Prime smartphones include 8 GB of internal, expandable storage, and 1 GB of RAM memory. The Duos features a 5-megapixel main camera and a 2-megapixel selfie camera, which takes pixelated selfies, according to a CNET review.

Each Core Prime model appears similar from the outside, with the name “Samsung” written in silver capital letters in the display’s top bezel. Each also includes an elongated, rounded home button on the display’s bottom bezel. To check your Galaxy phone’s model name and number, go to the Settings or Options menu and check the ‘About Phone’ page.
