Powered by a quad-core MediaTek MT6737T processor, the new Samsung smartphone features LTE connectivity, a 5-inch IPS display with 540 x 960 pixels, an 8 MP rear camera with its own LED flash, and a 2600 mAh battery. The device further comes with 1.5 GB of RAM and 8 GB of expandable storage space, though some variants may have 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB or 32 GB of internal memory.
The Galaxy Grand Prime Plus / Galaxy J2 Prime runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow. We don't know if Samsung is planning to update this handset to Android Nougat, but we have a feeling it won't do it.
Right now, we're seeing the Galaxy J2 Prime as being available only in Russia, where it costs around $140 (mind you, prices in Russia are almost always higher than in other markets, and we don't think this device should cost more than $100 in the US - assuming it'll ever be sold there). The new phone has three color variants: black, gold, and pink. Would you buy any of them?

Samsung doesn't only sell high-end phones.
This Galaxy Grand Prime+ might be trash by today's standards, but there are many people (especially in third world countries) who can't afford flagships or even decent midrange phones.
So stop being delusional, 'cause your post #1 makes no sense.

"Even sony and htc stopped releasing soooo many phones..!"
Sony and HTC would increasingly release many phones, if they could sell them, but sadly they can't and they struggle to sell the little amount they currently manufacture.
Heck, they've both dropped out of the top 10 OEMs in the smartphone industry.
So, Samsung releases many phone models simply because they can.
Problem?

Samsung's strategy is all about market dominance. Fortunately for the consumers in the smartphone business, Samsung will not be able to achieve dominance because Samsung doesn't control all assets necessary for a dominance.
1)Android belongs to Google so that all Android OEMs offer more or less the same software.
2)Cobbling together a smartphone is not difficult.
3)There is Apple.
