Samsung’s two new budget phones have been leaked. Here are all the specifications

Samsung is gearing up to release its latest budget phone, the Galaxy A16, and leaks continue to suggest it will offer a compelling package for the price.

According to Android Headlines, the Galaxy A16 will be available in two versions depending on location: 5G and 4G models. The 5G model is powered by Samsung Exynos 1330 or Dimensity 6300 chipset, indicating next-generation 5G connectivity.

The 4G version is expected to use the MediaTek Helio G99 chip, a reliable processor for everyday tasks. Aside from the different processors, both versions of the Galaxy A16 should share a number of specifications:

• Advertisement: A large 6.7-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate ensures a comfortable viewing experience for videos and games.
• RAM and storage: 4GB of RAM should ensure smooth multitasking of basic tasks, while 128GB of expandable storage offers plenty of space for apps, photos and videos.
• battery: A 5,000mAh battery with 25W wired charging support keeps you awake all day long.
• Cameras: A triple rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 5-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2-megapixel macro camera allows you to capture various shots. A 13-megapixel front camera takes care of selfies.

The Galaxy A16 is expected to feature a flat display, a selfie camera notch on top, and a slightly thicker bottom bezel.

As mentioned, the Galaxy A16 is expected to have guaranteed software updates for six years, one year less than the more expensive Galaxy S24 series but two years more than the Galaxy S23 series. The Galaxy A15 is eligible for up to four major Android OS updates and five years of security patches.

We’ve heard that Samsung plans to release the Galaxy A16 5G in India in September, with a larger release later in the year. However, this has not yet happened. This is understandable considering that the Galaxy A15 was only launched in December last year. The price of this model was around $230.

When it launches, the Galaxy A16 should be available in three classic colors: black, gray and light green.
