Samsung has launched its latest budget-friendly smartphone in the F series, the Galaxy F05 in India, just days after the release of the Galaxy M05, which features similar specifications but with a leather-patterned back design.
It boasts a 6.7-inch HD+ display with an 8MP front camera housed in the notch. It runs on the MediaTek Helio G85 SoC with 4GB RAM, 64GB storage and is based on Android 14 with One UI Core 6.0, and Samsung has promised two major OS updates and four years of security updates for the device.
The phone is equipped with a 50MP main rear camera, a 2MP depth sensor, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and is powered by a 5000mAh battery that supports 25W fast charging. However, it does not include a charger in the box.
