According to Twitter user Abhishek Yadav, Samsung will be soon launching the Galaxy F02s in India. That phone will be available in two storage variants for the following price tags.

It is worth noting that the Galaxy M02s (same phone with a different name) is also sold at the same price in India. Hence, the only difference between the two could be their availability and maybe rear pattern as well as colors.
