Build and Design of Samsung Galaxy A05s
The phone is available in Black, Silver, Light Green and Violet and comes in a sturdy frame with a linearly patterned backside. It is a beautiful, slim, sleek phone with a minimalistic, ergonomic design characteristic of most Samsung’s budget and mid-range smartphones.
Samsung Galaxy A05s measures 168 x 77.8 x 8.8 mm and weighs 194 g. It is not featherlight but reasonably light and slim enough to enable good handling when placed in the pocket or pulled out to make calls or text a message.
Samsung Galaxy A05s Display
It features a 6.7-inch PLS LCD with an 82.9% screen-to-body ratio. Such a more extensive screen provides a platform to enjoy content and media consumption better than smaller screens. Moreover, 1080 x 2400 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~393 ppi density) resolution is super, providing more quality user experience than 7200p resolution on Samsung Galaxy A05. The default refresh rate and resolution are functionally effective but limit your preferred or expected immersive experience when playing games and browsing through your gallery.
Camera Set-up
Capture the world from different angles. Cherish the photos you take with the powerful 50MP primary camera, the portraits taken with the 2MP Depth camera + 2 MP, f/2.4 (macro) that ensures you capture clear pictures of small details and objects, and your favourite selfies with the 13 MP, f/2.0 Front camera.
Performance and Processing Power
Samsung Galaxy AO5s has a powerful octa-core, Qualcomm SM6225 Snapdragon 680 4G (6 nm) processor that powers the phone, enables multitasking and carries out essential functions. Adreno 610 GPU installed on the handset allows you to effectively and seamlessly play low to mid-setting games without lags and stutters. Anchoring the handset is 128GB 6GB RAM phone memory, besides additional memory support via MicroSD. With 6GB of memory and 128GB internal storage, Galaxy A05 offers efficient performance for the task at hand.

- Internet: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct
