Alongside the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung is working on a bunch of budget and mid-range smartphones for 2024. The Galaxy A25 5G, Galaxy A15 LTE, and Galaxy A15 5G are among the devices expected to go official within the next few months. We have already seen the former two in leaked renders, including an exclusive leak of the Galaxy A25 5G from us. The Galaxy A15 5G has now shown up in renders ahead of launch.
Leaked Galaxy A15 5G renders show a familiar design
Renders of a dark blue-colored Galaxy A15 5G were recently published by Newzonly in collaboration with @passionategeekz. As expected, the phone shares its design with its 4G sibling. We have a flat display with a U-shaped notch and notable bezels, particularly the chin. Samsung has slightly raised the frame around the power and volume buttons on the right side, something we have seen on the Galaxy A25 5G and Galaxy A15 too.
The power button appears to incorporate a capacitive fingerprint scanner, which is a norm for low-cost smartphones. The edges are otherwise flat and so is the back panel. On the back, the Galaxy A15 5G has the same camera array that we have seen on all Samsung phones this year and leaked renders of upcoming models. The company has fitted the phone with three cameras all of which protrude out of the back panel individually.
Samsung is seemingly creating a brand identity for Galaxy devices, and that identity is a bump-less vertical rear camera layout. The new budget handset has an LED flash unit next to the camera column. The renders don’t show the Galaxy A15 5G from other angles, so we can’t tell you whether the phone features a 3.5mm headphone jack. We hope it does. The publication says the handset may also come in black, yellow, and other colors.
The 4G and 5G models of this phone feature the same chipset
Samsung will reportedly equip the Galaxy A15 5G with a 6.5-inch FHD+ (2,400 x 1,080 pixels) display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It features MediaTek’s Dimensity 6100+ 6nm processor. It’s the same chipset as the Galaxy A15 LTE’s Helio G99, with the difference being 5G support for the former. The octa-core SoC has a peak CPU speed of 2.2GHz and features the Mali G57 GPU.
The Galaxy A15 5G may feature a 50MP primary rear camera, 5MP ultrawide lens, 2MP macro camera, and 13MP selfie shooter. It should come with up to 128GB of storage and possibly 6GB of RAM. The device will support expandable storage via a microSD card. A 5,000mAh battery will fuel the phone with 25W fast charging. Samsung may launch the phone in early 2024 if not before the end of 2023.
