Specs-wise, this is an entry-level device through and through. The Snapdragon 400 chipset and its quad-core 1.2 GHz setup pair with just 768 MB RAM, enough for basic apps and calls but not much multitasking. The 4.5-inch TFT screen runs Android 4.4.2 KitKat, and with only 4 GB of onboard storage, you'll want that microSD card slot (up to 64 GB) almost immediately.

Camera duties fall to a 5 MP rear sensor with autofocus and LED flash, plus a VGA front camera for the occasional low-res selfie. Video tops out at 480p, so this isn't a phone for content creation. The 2000 mAh battery is modest but matches the low-power hardware and small screen, and dual SIM support is handy if you're juggling two lines.

Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Dual SIM price in Malaysia starts from RM493. It comes in White or Black, and at this price point it's really aimed at buyers who just need a reliable, no-frills Android phone for calls, texts, and light browsing.
