Samsung has introduced the Galaxy A04s, a new entry-level smartphone with plenty of upgrades compared to the Galaxy A04. Not only has Samsung included a faster display in the Galaxy A04s, but it has also equipped the device with a more modern SoC than the Galaxy A04 and an additional rear-facing camera.

The Galaxy A04 is barely a week old at this point. However, Samsung has now announced the Galaxy A04s, a successor of sorts. While still an entry-level smartphone, the Galaxy A04s contains a few advantages over the Galaxy A04. As Samsung's marketing images show, the Galaxy A04s has a third rear-facing camera, unlike the Galaxy A04. Also, the Galaxy A04s has a more powerful chipset and a faster display than its namesake.

Specifically, the Galaxy A04s has a 50 MP primary camera paired with dual 2 MP sensors for calculating depth of field and macro information. Meanwhile, Samsung includes a 5 MP front-facing camera within a waterdrop notch above the Galaxy A04s' 6.5-inch display. According to Samsung, the Galaxy A04s relies on a PLS LCD panel that operates at 1,600 x 720 pixels with a 90 Hz refresh rate. In comparison, the Galaxy A04 has a 60 Hz display, albeit one that also operates at 720p.

Meanwhile, Samsung has equipped the Galaxy A04s with an Exynos 850 chipset, which contains eight ARM Cortex-A55 CPU cores clocked at 2 GHz. According to our database, the Exynos 850 should deliver 1.23x the performance that the MediaTek Helio P35 in the Galaxy A04 manages. Incidentally, the Galaxy A04s has 3 GB or 4 GB of RAM with up to 128 GB of expandable storage and a 5,000 mAh battery. Unfortunately, Samsung has not confirmed how much the Galaxy A04s will cost, although it has listed the smartphone in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden in four colour options.
