Samsung has been tipped to be on the works of Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime's successor for the emerging market.
According to Phone Arena the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Value Edition with the model number SM-G531Y has already passed the certification in Taiwan which could indicate an imminent release.
This mid-ranger is expected to carry almost the same features of the Samsung Galaxy Prime, however Samsung will replace the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset available on the original model with a 64-bit quad-core Cortex-A53 Marvell PXA1908 chipset.
Though we're still unsure if Samsung would still continue using the chipset, since there had been reports that the chipset has a 'lesser graphic performance' compared to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410.
Aside from the entry-level chipset which was first introduced on the Samsung Galaxy XCover 3, it might sport the same 5-inch display with a resolution of 540 by 960 pixels;the chipset will be paired with a 1GB of RAM and an onboard 8GB of internal storage; micro-sd expansion of up to 128GB.
Interestingly, it is also an upgrade to Android 5.0 Lollipop as Samsung hasn't confirmed if they would release an OT A update for the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime.
Camera-wise, it might pull off the 5MP selfie camera along with an 8MP rear camera. While other specs include Bluetooth 4.0, LTE cat.4 and optional NFC support. (via GSMArena)
Gizbot also added that it is expected to go on sale for €200, down from the original leaked price of €230.
As for its release, the upcoming mid-ranger is expected to arrive in September which marks the first year of the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime. Also, Samsung is yet to announce the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 on the same month at the IFA 2015 in Germany.
