The Samsung Galaxy A series has just received one of the year’s most affordable phones. The Galaxy A04s is a minor update to the Galaxy A04 from earlier this month, as well as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy A03s.
Display and Design
The waterdrop notch selfie camera and a thick bottom bezel up front denote an entry-level phone design. This is on top of a fairly basic 6.5-inch IPS LCD panel with 720p resolution, but the 90Hz refresh rate is commendable, especially given that it is an upgrade over last year. The power button on the side also functions as a fingerprint scanner.
Internal and Storage
The chipset has not been officially revealed by Samsung, but based on the CPU configuration, it is most likely the Exynos 850.
It is not only faster than last year’s Helio P35 on the A03s, but it is also significantly more efficient than the A04’s 28nm Unisoc chip.
You can choose between 3 and 4GB of RAM, as well as 32GB/64GB/128GB of storage and a microSD card slot. On top of Android 12, you get a lighter version of Samsung UI called One UI Core 4.1.
Cameras
The back has a triple camera setup, with a 50MP primary sensor in the center flanked by two 2MP shooters for depth sensing and macro photography. Like the Galaxy A04, video recording is limited to 1080p at 30 frames per second. A single 5MP selfie camera is housed within the waterdrop notch.
Pricing and Battery
The battery capacity is the same as its siblings, at 5,000 mAh. It still doesn’t support fast charging, but the micro-USB port has been upgraded to USB-C. As previously stated, there is no word on pricing, but we anticipate it to cost between $150 and $200.
