Samsung is said to be working on two budget devices, Galaxy A02, and Galaxy M02. Among this, the Galaxy A02 hit several certifications like Bluetooth SIG, FCC, NBTC. Now, the device has appeared on TUV Rheinland Certification revealing battery and charging specs.
As reported by Root MyGalaxy(via Sammobile) a Samsung smartphone with model number SM-A025M appears on CPQD R&D center of Latin America and has an ‘A02’ moniker. This is similar to earlier Bluetooth certifications which showed a model number SM-A025F. All these suggest that the device is indeed Galaxy A02. Next, the listing also shows that the device’s battery and charger have model numbers HQ-50S and EP-TA200B.
Further, a device with a similar battery model number is spotted on TUV Rheinland Certification. It shows that the device has a 5,000mAh battery. Also, an earlier SGS Fimko listing reportedly suggests that EP-TA200B could indicate 15W charging on the A02. In any case, the battery is about 60% improvement in battery from the predecessor Galaxy A01 which had only 3,000mAh capacity.

Galaxy A02 Specifications(Expected)
Anyway, talking about specs, the Galaxy A02 is likely to feature a 5.7-inch HD+ display. Early reports say that the device could sport Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 SoC paired with 2/3GB RAM, and likely have 32/64GB storage. As for the optics, it is likely to sport a 13MP main and a 2MP sensor on the rear, and an 8MP selfie camera.
Early Bluetooth and Wi-Fi certifications reveal that the device will have Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n for connectivity. That said, we can also expect others like 4G LTE, GPS, GLONASS for navigation. Also, considering this is likely a budget device don’t expect it to have the latest Android 11 out of the box just yet.
Considering the device’s model number is already on Latin America’s Samsung Support page, we feel that the device isn’t that far away from launch.
