    Is Galaxy Grand 2 a good phone?

    Features and specifications This is a mid-range quad-core offering, but it should at least be more powerful than similar processors from Mediatek and Broadcom that are more commonly found in phones at this price point. There's 1.5GB of RAM, which should be more than enough for smooth multitasking.
