The Samsung Galaxy A05 is positioned as an ultra-affordable option in the smartphone market. Its pricing is particularly appealing for those who need essential smartphone functionalities without breaking the bank. The Samsung Galaxy A05s, on the other hand, sits at a slightly higher price bracket, offering enhanced features for a modest increase in cost. The A05s brings to the table improvements in areas such as display quality, with a Full HD Plus IPS display and a higher refresh rate of 90Hz. These upgrades make the A05s an attractive option for users who prioritize better display and performance but are still mindful of their budget. The Galaxy A05s, while slightly more expensive, justifies its higher price with better display resolution, a higher refresh rate, and additional features like the fingerprint sensor. For users who spend significant time on their phones, whether for media consumption or more demanding applications, the extra investment in the A05s could offer a noticeably enhanced experience.

After thoroughly examining the Samsung Galaxy A05s, it’s evident that Samsung continues to redefine what’s possible in the realm of budget smartphones. The A05s stands out with its impressive display, sporting a 6.7-inch Full HD+ screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, providing a smooth and visually appealing experience that’s uncommon in its price range. The build quality, while predominantly plastic, is sturdy and aesthetically pleasing, offering a design that feels more premium than its price tag would suggest. Performance-wise, the Snapdragon 680 chipset does a commendable job. It handles day-to-day tasks with ease and proves sufficient for light gaming. The inclusion of 4GB of RAM in the base model, with options for more, ensures multitasking is handled reasonably well. The storage options are generous, with the base model starting at 128GB, a notable improvement over many budget phones.

The dedicated microSD card slot and 3.5mm audio jack are both nice-to-haves but hardly exclusive to the Galaxy A05s nor enough to make up for some of the other more central issues we encountered. If you really want a Samsung at this price point, then we would probably go for the Galaxy A14 5G or Galaxy A24 4G instead, depending on where you live and your budget. We liked our time with both of those devices more than the A05s. Or, alternatively, shop around a bit more.

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
