So far, Samsung has launched the Galaxy M11, Galaxy M01, and Galaxy A31 smartphones this month. The Galaxy A21s, then, is the brand’s latest smartphone that sits right below the Galaxy A31 in its A-series smartphone line-up.
The Galaxy A21s features a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD display with 720 x 1600 resolution which seems a bit too underwhelming in this segment. Nevertheless, the phone gets Samsung’s Infinity-O display, which means the 13MP selfie camera is neatly placed in a punch-hole cut-out. Speaking of cameras, there’s a quad-camera setup at the rear, which includes a 48MP primary sensor, accompanied by an 8MP wide-angle sensor and two 2MP (depth and macro) sensors.
The Galaxy A21s is the brand’s first smartphone to be powered by the recently announced Exynos 850 chipset, which comes paired with up to 6GB RAM and 64GB of in-built storage, which can be expanded up to 512GB via microSD. The smartphone runs on Samsung’s One UI on top Android 10 and is backed up by a 5,000mAh battery, which supports 15W fast charging via USB-C.
Other notable additions of the Galaxy A21s include the presence of a headphone-jack, and connectivity options such as Bluetooth 5.0, and Wi-Fi 802.11ac. It also gets a capacitive fingerprint sensor at the back.
As far as pricing is concerned, the entry-level 4GB + 64GB version of the Galaxy A21s is priced at ₹16,499, while the higher-grade 6GB + 64GB version is priced at ₹18,499. It is available starting today in black, blue, and white colours on Flipkart, Samsung’s online store, and major offline stores.
