Samsung's forthcoming Galaxy A06 was initially seen in leaked renders late last month. Now, a more detailed rendering has emerged, providing further insights into the phone's external design, such as a textured back panel.
Galaxy A06 Rendering
The new render reveals the same camera layout and back texture as its predecessor. The latest render indicates that the phone will feature slightly larger camera modules compared to the Galaxy A05, but the overall camera layout, including the flash module placement, remains unchanged. The back panel texture also appears to be very similar to the previous model.
Design Consistency
On the right side, the new phone will have a raised portion on the frame that houses the power button and volume rocker, akin to the Galaxy A15, Galaxy A35, and Galaxy A55. Samsung has dubbed this design "Key Island." The front render shows bezels and a water drop notch for the selfie camera, much like its predecessor.
Specifications
A previous Geekbench listing reveals that the Galaxy A06 will be powered by a MediaTek Helio G85 chip and will come pre-installed with One UI 6.1 based on Android 14. This 6nm-class chip is designed for 4G smartphones. In terms of memory, the model will come with 4GB RAM, although 6GB RAM is becoming mainstream in many markets.
This phone will support 4G connectivity and dual-sim dual-standby. Interestingly, it uses the same chipset as its predecessor, which raises questions about potential performance improvements. There are also rumors that the phone might use the Helio G99 chipset.
Display and Battery
The display is expected to be a 6.7" HD+ LCD screen. Notably, the phone will feature a 3.5mm headphone jack and a 5000mAh battery. It is said to support the company's traditional 15W charging technology, although this seems unlikely since the predecessor already supports faster 25W charging.
In other aspects, the predecessor also features a 6.7" LCD display with the same 720p resolution and is powered by the Helio G85 (12nm) chipset and a 5000mAh battery.
