Samsung is introducing three budget-friendly smartphones in the Philippines, the Galaxy A04s, Galaxy A13 5G, and Galaxy A23 5G. The three complements the current range of Samsung devices positioned just under the midrange A series smartphones. Both the Galaxy A04s and A13 5G come with 6.5-inch 90Hz displays and triple rear cameras with 50MP f/1.8 main lenses. Meanwhile, the Galaxy A23 is placed slightly higher packing a 6.6-inch 120Hz screen and quad cameras.
The A13 5G and A23 5G will sport 5G connectivity, as their name suggests, thanks to their Dimensity 700 5G and Snapdragon 695 5G chips, respectively. All of them will come with 5,000mAh batteries but the 5G variants will come with faster charging.
