Samsung announced the Galaxy A02s budget smartphone in late November 2020. The same handset later debuted as Galaxy M02s in India. Now, as per new findings, the device may also launch as Galaxy F02s in the near future.
The existence of Galaxy F02s is revealed by the phone’s Google Play Console listing. It confirms the handset to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 SoC coupled with 4GB RAM.
Further, the device will flaunt a display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels (HD+) and 280 DPI. Lastly, on the software front, it will ship with Android 10 (One UI Core 2.x).
All these parameters and the branding suggest it to be a rebadged Galaxy A02s and Galaxy M02s respectively. Hence, we expect the smartphone to retain all the features of the other two.
Also, since the Galaxy F series is exclusive to India, we think it should be only available in the said country. However, a different phone (Galaxy M02s) with the exact specs are already available in the region.
Therefore, the Galaxy F02s could sport a different rear design to differentiate itself. That said, the South Korean tech giant is yet to officially confirm the launch date of this budget smartphone.
What are your thoughts on Samsung releasing the same phone with different names? Do you think the company is following this route because of its Chinese competitors (known for rebranding)? Do let us know in the comment section below.
