The budget-friendly Samsung Galaxy A06 has taken another step closer to launch, receiving certification from SIRIM, the Malaysian Standards and Industrial Research Institute. This follows its earlier appearances on the FCC and BIS databases, hinting at a global rollout soon.
Although the SIRIM certification doesn’t reveal specific details about the phone, it supports the existing leaks and rumors about the Galaxy A06’s imminent launch. We also know a few of its specifications, thanks to previous certifications.
The FCC certification confirmed the phone’s model number (SM-A065F/DS) and some key connectivity features. We can expect the Galaxy A06 to boast dual-band Wi-Fi (likely Wi-Fi 5 based on previous leaks) and Bluetooth connectivity. For network connectivity, it will support only 4G LTE, not 5G.
The phone was also spotted on Geekbench, revealing details about its processor. Galaxy A06 is likely to be powered by a MediaTek Helio G85 SoC, a chipset commonly found in budget and entry-level smartphones. It will be paired with at least 4GB of RAM and will run on Android 14 out of the box.
Looking at the leaked specifications, it’s evident that Samsung is aiming for the budget-conscious consumer with the Galaxy A06. The MediaTek Helio G85 SoC, combined with 4GB of RAM, suggests a focus on affordability rather than top-tier performance.
While the certifications and leaks shed light on a few of the core hardware, many of the phone’s details are still under wraps. We don’t yet know the phone’s design, camera configuration, battery capacity, or storage options. Additionally, a specific launch date and availability are yet to be revealed.
Hopefully, with the SIRIM certification now secured, Samsung will soon unveil the official details of the Galaxy A06. We’ll be keeping a close eye on further developments and will update you as soon as we learn more about this budget-oriented offering from Samsung.
