It’s been a month since Samsung launched its new budget handset called the Samsung Galaxy A21s in select markets. Back then, there was a talk about the possibility of this handset, eventually making its way to India. Today, we have come across reports indicating that Samsung could launch the A21s in India sometime early next week. The report also states that the phone will be priced under the INR 20,000 mark when launched.
While we had talked about the specifications of the device in our previous articles, many of our readers might have not read those stories. Let us, therefore, in this article, take a closer look at the specifications of this budget Samsung smartphone.
The Samsung Galaxy A21s makes use of Samsung’s own Exynos 850 chipset. This is a very new SoC that has rather interesting internals. While the ‘8-series’ naming scheme might make you think it is a high-end SoC, in reality, the Exynos 850 is an entry-level chip. However, it is based on an 8nm manufacturing process and houses eight Cortex A53 cores making it perhaps the most power-efficient chipset currently available for smartphones. The phone appears to be offered in three variants- a base 3GB/32GB variant, a mid-tier 4GB+64GB variant, and a top-end 6GB+64GB variant. The dual SIM handset also gets a dedicated tray for the microSD card.
