  • Upcoming Samsung Galaxy A6s Leaked

    Upcoming Samsung Galaxy A6s Leaked

    Samsung has been a major player in the smartphone market, but lately their sales numbers have been declining. This is due to cut throat competition from Chinese manufactures like Oppo and Xiaomi. Now. the company is working hard to gain lost market share by launching new smartphones with features that set them apart from their competition. One such example is the Galaxy A9 with 4 rear cameras. Today, an alleged Samsung device called the Samsung Galaxy A6s has surfaced online. The phone also passed the  TENAA certification late last month.

    To fight with low profit focused Chinese companies, Samsung is trying the ODM approach. ODM or Original Design Manufacturing is a cost cutting approach in which a company outsources production of  goods to a locally based company in a foreign market. The local company is able to achieve lower production costs due to low labor-inputs, transport links and its proximity to markets. The Samsung Galaxy A6s will be the first ODM device from the company.

     

    TENAA is a Chinese website for new mobile devices registration and a new Samsung smartphone was recently registered there as the G6200. The G6200 is supposedly the Samsung Galaxy A6s. The listing also revealed the specifications of the Galaxy A6s.

    The Samsung Galaxy A6s gives us an idea about the new design language for the upcoming Samsung smartphones. The leaked devices show off new colours and all new glass back. They have vertically aligned dual rear cameras with dual-LED flash and a rear mounted fingerprint sensor.

    Specifications:

    The Galaxy A6s has a 5.99 inch IPS LCD display with Full HD resolution. It runs on an unknown 2.2 GHz Octa-Core processor with 6 GB of RAM. The smartphone has two storage variants of 64 GB and 128 GB which will be expandable via a microSD card. The handset run on Android 8.1 Oreo and have a 3,300 mAh battery.

    However, these are leaked images and specifications of the devices and the retail unit may vary. Sadly we will have to wait for any official announcement from Samsung regarding the same.

    The poster teased by the company shows a smartphone with dual front cameras which will be the prominent feature of the upcoming device. Not much information about the device is available but it will surely have better specifications than its predecessor. For reference, here are the specifications of the Lenovo S5.

    Lenovo S5 Specifications:

    The Lenovo S5 has a 5.7-inch FHD display with 2160 x 1080 px resolution and a pixel density of 424 ppi. The device has the Snapdragon 625 Soc with an Octa-Core processor and the Adreno 506 GPU.
