Samsung has launched the Galaxy A01 Core smartphone in Indonesia without much fanfare. The smartphone is an entry-level model and it comes as the brand’s most affordable model. Samsung and affordable phones usually don’t fit in the same sentence but this model should alter that notion.

The Galaxy A01 Core presents with a 5.3-inch PLS LCD screen with HD+ resolution and 18.5:9 aspect ratio. The phone offers just a single rear camera which is an 8MP camera and LED flash. For selfies, there is a 5MP front camera housed under the top bezel. The back panel of the phone is designed with a ridge-like pattern on the back which not only adds aesthetics but also ensures the phone doesn’t slip off the hand easily.

Coming to the processor, the Galaxy A01 Core is powered by a Quad-core Mediatek MT6739 chipset paired with 1GB RAM. There are 16GB and 32GB storage options available. Keeping the lights on is a decent 3000mAh non-removable battery. The A01 Core also features a 3.5mm audio jack and hybrid SIM slot.

As for the pricing and availability, the Samsung Galaxy A01 Core is priced at IDR 1,099,000 ($74). However, Samsung Indonesia is offering buyers the option of getting it for IDR 999,000 ($67) as part of the first flash sale event which ends on July 23. The phone is available in Black, Blue and Red colours.
