Manufacturers aren’t letting the ongoing pandemic stop smartphone production as Samsung introduces two new budget devices. We recently saw the Galaxy M11 launch into the Samsung M series lineup and now Samsung has added the Galaxy A11 and Galaxy A21 into its A-series device portfolio.
Samsung Galaxy A11 And Galaxy A21 succeed the Galaxy A10 and A20 that was introduced in April 2019. A11 and A21 feature closely similar specs and design, they both have a hole-punch IPS LCD capacitive display, a rear fingerprint sensor and 4000mAh battery that comes with 15W charging support.
The Galaxy A11 comes with a triple camera setup on the rear, A21, however, comes with a quad-camera setup to capture better details. Both use an unknown Octa-core processor with A11 having it clock speed at 1.8Ghz while that of the Galaxy A21 has not been revealed.
