Samsung Galaxy A04

Samsung Galaxy A04 Launch in India

The Samsung Galaxy A04 is a new budget smartphone from Samsung. The new phone has a 5,000mAh battery, and the latest smartphone from Samsung comes with a 50MP primary camera and an octa-core chipset. As a follow-up to last year’s Galaxy A03, this is the cheapest smartphone from Samsung. Both handsets have a striking resemblance up front but vary in key ways around the rear. Let’s take a more in-depth look at the recently unveiled Samsung Galaxy A04, including its specs as well as its features

Samsung Galaxy A04 Price in India

Although Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy A04, the company has not disclosed the pricing of the device nor when it will be made available. On the other hand, a rumour that was published not too long ago said that the A04 would be sold for 169 Euros. It is available in four different hues, including white, green, black, and copper, among others.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Design

With 192 grams of weight and 9.1 mm thickness, the Samsung Galaxy A04 features a minimalistic appearance that you’ll expect from an entry-level smartphone. There is no IP certification and the smartphone is made of plastic. Although the in-hand experience is going to be great, the smartphone missed several modern-day features. There is an outdated water-drop notch on the front as well as large bezels around the screen. Overall, there in nothing special in terms of design here and also the absence of a fingerprint sensor is a disappointment.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Display

The HD+ LCD display on the Samsung Galaxy A04 measures 6.55 inches and boasts an Infinity-V cutout at the top. You’ll be able to enjoy a moderate multimedia experience with the given display configuration. However, the scrolling experience won’t be that great given the 60Hz refresh rate of the screen.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Performance

The mobile device is driven by Exynos 850, which is an Octa-core chipset and works in tandem with up to 8GB of Random Access Memory RAM and up to 128GB of built-in storage space. Through the use of a microSD card, the capacity of the external memory may be increased all the way up to 1 terabyte. In terms of its operating system, the brand new Samsung Galaxy A04 utilizes an Android version that is 12 based version of One UI 4.1 Core. You’ll be able to perform your daily activities with ease given the RAM and the user interface of the Samsung Galaxy A04. However, this is not meant for heavy gaming, particularly the lower-end variants.  Also, there is no 5G connectivity in this device. You’ll have to rely on 4G networks.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Camera

The main sensor on the Samsung Galaxy A04’s dual rear camera combination has a resolution of 50 megapixels and is linked with an aperture of 1.8 millimetres, while the depth sensor has a resolution of 2 megapixels and is paired with a 2.4-millimetre lens. A built-in LED flash is included as part of the camera rig as well. This particular smartphone is equipped with a front-facing camera sensor that has a resolution of 5 megapixels and a lens that has an aperture of f/2.2. You’ll be mostly relying on the primary rear camera for photography in this device since the secondary rear camera is almost useless and the absence of an ultra-wide lens goes against the camera setup of the Samsung Galaxy A04.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Battery

When it comes to the capacity of the device’s battery, the Samsung Galaxy A04 has a unit that has a capacity of 5,000 mAh. However, the fast charging feature in the entry-level device is missing, which means it will take you around 2 hours to refill the battery with the given 10W charger. It would have been a good decision from the brand to include an 18W charging speed at least. For connecting the charger, there is a Type-C charging port available at the bottom of the Samsung Galaxy A04.

Samsung Galaxy A04 Verdict

Since Samsung has not yet disclosed how much the Galaxy A04 would cost, it would be premature to draw any conclusions about the device at this time. Given the phone’s specs, however, it’s probably going to be priced at less than 10k in India; otherwise, it’ll have a hard time competing in the country’s crowded smartphone market, where many other devices already provide similar or even more impressive functionality.
