Samsung Galaxy Prevail
Samsung Galaxy Prevail is an Android smartphone featuring a 3.2-inch screen, introduced on April 5, 2011, with a retail price of $180. It marked Samsung's initial Galaxy model offered through Boost Mobile and belongs to the Samsung Galaxy lineup, although it does not incorporate Samsung’s proprietary TouchWiz interface. The device carries the model designation SPH-M820 and was available exclusively via Boost Mobile.
Equipped with a 2 MP rear camera, the phone includes GPS functionality, Bluetooth connectivity, WiFi support, and can accommodate microSD cards up to 32 GB in capacity. Its processing is handled by a Qualcomm 800 MHz MSM7000 chipset, and it originally shipped with Android version 2.2, known as Froyo.
Physically, the Galaxy Prevail measures 4.4 inches in height, 2.3 inches in width, and 0.5 inches in thickness, with a weight of approximately 3.8 ounces. The device is powered by a 3.7-volt lithium-ion battery rated at 1500 mAh (model EB504465VA), which is also compatible with several other Samsung models including the Acclaim SCH-R880, Craft SCH-R900, Indulge SCH-910, Intercept SPH-910, Replenish SPH-M580, Sidekick 4G SGH-T839, and Transform SPH-M920.
