Samsung has released a new entry-level phone that builds on an existing model with a focused performance tweak. It’s aimed at people who want something affordable with longer software support.

The Galaxy A07s is positioned as an updated version of the Galaxy A07. The main change is the processor: it uses the newly launched MediaTek Helio G99+ instead of the original G99. That supports faster LPDDR5X RAM (vs LPDDR4X on the predecessor) and should offer a modest speed boost for regular tasks like browsing and social media, while still staying firmly in budget territory.

The phone has a 6.7″ PLS LCD screen with HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, same as the Galaxy A07. Storage-wise, you get 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, which can be expanded with a microSD card up to 2TB. On the camera side, there’s a 50MP main rear sensor plus a 2MP secondary camera, and an 8MP front camera for selfies and video calls.

A 5,000mAh battery should easily last a full day, and it charges over USB Type-C. The phone has an IP54 rating for basic dust and water resistance, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, dual-SIM 4G support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3, and GPS. Samsung is also promising six major OS upgrades and six years of security updates, which is a pretty strong software commitment at this price.

Price and availability:

The Galaxy A07s has launched in the Levant region, such as Jordan. It’s available in Black, Light Violet, and Green, and currently sells for JOD 119 (around $167 or ₹15,860). Higher memory options might show up in other markets later, but the first launch sticks with this accessible starting point.

Overall, the A07s takes a familiar budget formula and makes it a bit more future-proof with the newer chip and longer update support. It’s a sensible pick for anyone who wants reliable Samsung software and basic durability without spending much.

Samsung’s next budget phones are starting to show up online. Fresh traces of the Galaxy A08 and Galaxy A07s have appeared in Google’s systems, suggesting the company is getting ready for another round of affordable devices.

According to 91Mobiles, both models recently popped up in the Google Play Console. The Galaxy A08 (model number SM-A085F) is expected to run a MediaTek Helio G99 chip with dual Mali-G57 GPUs and 8GB of RAM. It looks like it’ll have a basic HD waterdrop-notch screen (720×1600 resolution) and ship with Android 17.

The Galaxy A07s (SM-A077M) uses the same processor and GPU setup, but drops down to 4GB of RAM and comes with Android 16 out of the box. Both phones stick with the reliable Helio G99, which already powered the earlier models like the A07 4G and should handle everyday stuff and light multitasking without much trouble.

There are a few more clues floating around. The A08 has shown up in Wi-Fi Alliance and BIS (India) databases under variants like SM-A085F/DS, which usually points to a launch somewhere around August 2026, roughly a year after the previous A07 4G. FCC filings also suggest a bigger battery than the A07’s 5,000mAh unit. The rated capacity sits around 5,830mAh, so it’ll probably be marketed as a 6,000mAh phone, with Samsung’s standard 25W wired charging.

Design-wise, the phone is expected to stick to the brand’s usual waterdrop notch on the front and a dual-camera setup on the back. So far it looks like the A08 will be the slightly better-equipped version with more RAM and a newer Android version, while the A07s plays the role of the cheaper option.

These Play Console sightings just confirm that both phones are moving forward and that Samsung isn’t planning to leave the ultra-budget segment anytime soon.
