Samsung has already launched quite a few flagship smartphones recently. The South Korean tech giant is now planning to expand its portfolio of budget handsets soon. As per recent reports, the company is working on new Galaxy M and F series affordable smartphones – the M05 and F05. Both the devices were certified by Wi-Fi Alliance in July. Now, the upcoming Galaxy M05’s support page has appeared on the company’s website, suggesting the brand could announce a launch date soon.
Samsung could soon launch the budget Galaxy M05 in emerging markets
Samsung is soon expected to announce a launch date for the Galaxy M05. The phone has appeared on a support page on the company’s website in India. The device has surfaced on the site under the model number SM-M055F/DS, which indicates the dual-SIM variant. Unfortunately, the support page hasn’t revealed anything else about the device.
However, it does indicate that the Galaxy M05’s official launch date could be just around the corner. The company will initially launch the new M series entry-level offering in emerging markets like India.
Galaxy M05 will succeed the entry-level Galaxy M04 soon
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy M05 will succeed the entry-level Galaxy M04, which was introduced in December 2022. Since the successor will arrive nearly two years after the predecessor, it is expected to offer several improvements. The Galaxy M04 features a 6.5-inch LCD screen bearing a resolution of 720 x 1,600 pixels. The phone is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P35 processor.
The Galaxy M04 comes in two RAM and storage variants – 4GB + 64GB and 4GB + 128GB. For imaging, the device offers a 13MP wide-angle main snapper, aided by a 2MP depth shooter. On the front, the phone has a 5MP lens. A beefy 5,000mAh battery keeps the whole package alive.
We can expect the Galaxy M05 to come with a slightly better display and a more powerful processor. The device could also boot the newer Android 14 out of the box and receive two major Android OS updates.
