    Samsung's latest mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy J5 Prime, is now available to purchase in Australia through third-party independent retailer JB Hi-Fi. The handset comes in two color variants — Gold and Black — and carries a price tag of $399.

    For those in need of a refresher, the Galaxy J5 Prime packs a 5-inch display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, a 13MP rear-facing camera and a 2,400mAh battery.

    This news comes just two months after Samsung launched the handset in India, alongside its larger companion the Galaxy J7 Prime, which features slightly upgraded specifications.
