Sprint will start selling Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime in the United States from 10 July, becoming the second wireless carrier in the country to sell the mid-range smartphone.
The handset was earlier available only on Cricket Wireless.
The carrier has confirmed in a press statement that the smartphone will be available at all Sprint Stores, Web Sales and Telesales at 1-800-SPRINT1.
It comes with a price tag of $240 (excluding tax) without contract and for $29.99 with a two-year service agreement after a $50 mail-in rebate via reward card.
"Every year, parents across the country head to stores looking to get their kids a high-quality smartphone their friends will envy at an affordable price," said Doug Kaufman, director-Device Strategy, Sprint, in a statement.
"Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime and the Sprint Family Share Pack make it possible for parents to give their kids a premium smartphone and enough high-speed data for the entire family without breaking the bank."
