Samsung is also working on its next budget 5G smartphone, which will be launched in the Indian market soon, and this time, it seems like the brand is focusing on improvement rather than innovation. The company has already confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy A07 5G will be launched in the Indian market in the first week of February, and this time, it will come with a similar design and a few upgrades that actually matter to the users. The smartphone was first launched in Thailand and is now being launched in the Indian market as the next affordable 5G smartphone from Samsung.

The Samsung Galaxy A07 5G seems to be similar to the Galaxy A06 5G, which was launched in the Indian market last year, and this time, Samsung seems to have focused on a few areas that actually matter to the users. The brand hasn’t tried to innovate much in this smartphone and has instead focused on a few areas that will benefit the users.
The Galaxy A07 5G comes with the same 6.7-inch HD+ LCD screen as its predecessor, but Samsung has quietly improved the refresh rate from 90Hz to 120Hz. While this may not seem like a big deal on paper, trust us when we say that this is an improvement that you will appreciate every day.




The screen brightness has also been bumped up to 800 nits, which should make it easier to view outside, something that many budget smartphones struggle with. However, it is still a shame that Samsung has not opted for an AMOLED screen, something that some of its rivals in this price bracket are now starting to offer. While an AMOLED screen would have been a nice touch, the screen size and refresh rate are still more than sufficient for watching videos and browsing the web.
Coming to the camera section, Samsung has taken a rather conservative stance. The Galaxy A07 5G comes with the same camera configuration as the A06 5G, which includes a 50MP primary sensor, a 2MP depth camera, and an 8MP front camera. For general photography, social media sharing, and video calling, this arrangement will be more than adequate. The portraits should turn out decent, and the images clicked during the day should be sharp enough for general use.
The absence of an ultrawide camera sensor does seem a tad peculiar, particularly when companies like Redmi and Realme are now beginning to incorporate ultrawide cameras even in their budget offerings.
The most significant and important change brought about in the Galaxy A07 5G is in its battery. Samsung has increased the battery size to a whopping 6,000mAh, which was 5,000mAh in the A06 5G. Along with the HD+ screen and low-end specs, this device will definitely last more than a day, even with heavy usage such as watching videos for hours.
The charging speed is still the same at 25W, which is not the fastest charging speed available in the market but is still good. For those who prioritize battery life over charging speed, this single change makes the Galaxy A07 5G better than its previous version.
The chipset for the Indian variant has not been confirmed by Samsung yet, but the international variant is powered by a 6nm octa-core processor, which is similar to the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 found in the Galaxy A06 5G. This is an indication that the processor is designed for handling tasks such as WhatsApp, YouTube, browsing, and social media, and not gaming or multitasking.
For the target group of this smartphone, this is not a problem at all. This is a smartphone that is designed for students, first-time smartphone users, and those who want a lag-free experience for basic tasks without worrying about overheating and battery drain.
One of the areas where Samsung still manages to excel over most of its rivals is in software updates. The Galaxy A07 5G comes with Android 16 and One UI 8, and Samsung has already announced that it will provide six Android version updates and security updates for six years. This is a great promise for a budget device and something that very few brands provide in this price range.
If you are someone who intends to keep their device for a long time, then the Galaxy A07 5G is definitely a better option than most other devices in the same price range that provide only two or three years of software updates.
Samsung has not announced the pricing yet, but as per tipster Abhishek Yadav, the Galaxy A07 5G may begin at ₹15,999 for the 4GB RAM + 128GB storage model, and the 6GB RAM variant may be priced at ₹17,999. If this is true, then this device will be positioned slightly above the Galaxy A06 5G and will go head-to-head with other budget 5G devices from Redmi, Realme, and iQOO.
With this pricing, it is quite evident that Samsung is relying on trust, battery life, and software updates rather than raw performance. This has been the case with the Galaxy A series in India, especially for those consumers who value reliability over innovation.
The Samsung Galaxy A07 5G is a conservative, predictable, and sensible upgrade. It doesn’t attempt to wow with flagship functionality, but it does enhance where it counts the most scrolling, battery life, and software updates. For those who are looking for a reliable 5G smartphone that will hold up well in the years to come, the Galaxy A07 5G appears to be a sound option.
While Samsung may not be breaking new ground with the Galaxy A07 5G, it’s worth noting that in the budget category, sometimes it’s more important to be reliable than innovative, and that’s exactly what the Galaxy A07 5G is.
