This simple smartphone can't top rivals Jessica Dolcourt, 2017-01-28THE GOOD The Samsung Galaxy Core Prime has a small price tag, its 5-megapixel camera takes vibrant sunlit photos, and there's plenty of room for expandable storage.
THE BAD Poor screen resolution dampens the Core Prime's appeal, and the front-facing camera captures pixelated selfies. Low-light photos appear blurry and dim.
