Samsung Galaxy F04 Price and Specifications

Design, Body and Display

Samsung Galaxy F04 is made of glass at the front and plastic from the back and body frame. It weighs 188g and measures 164.2 x 75.9 x 9.1 mm. The device is generally flat, with round, curved edges. The 6.5-inch LPS LCD Display has a refresh rate of 60Hz. The display’s resolution is 720 x 1600 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~270 ppi density). The screen has a characteristic water drop notch centered at the upper end to accommodate the front-facing lens.

Performance and Battery

Samsung Galaxy F04 currently runs on Android 12, One UI. It gets powered by an Octa-core (4×2.35 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4×1.8 GHz Cortex-A53) CPU, Mediatek MT6765 Helio P35 (12nm) chipset and PowerVR GE8320 GPU. The Octa-core processor enables efficiency in operations whether you are multi-tasking or using the phone intensively. It also helps manage the power consumption by the device and works along the GPU for the best user experience when playing video games and streaming videos. Cushioning the processor is 4GB RAM and 64GB internal memory, which is considerable. MicroSD for additional memory makes lots of sense. Whether you are streaming videos, daily use, switching between applications, browsing the internet, or laying basic games, be assured of the great performance of the Galaxy F04.

Camera.

The selfie camera comprises a single 5 MP, f/2.2, which is quite basic, leaving a lot to be desired.  At the back, Samsung Galaxy F04 packs a Dual Camera set-up comprising of:

• 13 MP, f/2.2, (wide), AF
• 2 MP, f/2.4, (depth)

The primary is still basic and will provide average performance, but still functional to take pictures and videos. The LED flash enables the capture of pictures and videos even in low light. 1080p@30fps video capture is  not bad for such as basic camera

Sensors

Samsung Galaxy F13 features limited sensors, which is quite a disappointment. Installed on the device are the Accelerometer, and proximity sensors. Conspicuously missing is the fingerprint sensor, which adds security enhancement to the data and information on the device

Battery

The massive 5,000mAh with the 15W fast charger enables the device to run operations on the device without inconveniences caused by low power.

Pros and Cons of Samsung Galaxy F04

Pros

• Large capacity battery
• Supports 15W fast charging
• USB type C
• Average ROM and RAM for a low-entry phone

Cons

• Low display resolution at 720p
• Really basic camera set-up
• Outdated Bluetooth version
• No fingerprint scanner
• Outdated Android version
• No reverse charging
• No glass protector
• Not waterproof

Verdict

Samsung Galaxy F04 is an entry smartphone, hence stripped off most of the features that could make it an outstanding phone. For its price, you will find value for your money based on a large battery + fast charge support, 4GB RAM 64GB ROM + MicroSD, and a 13MP primary camera. The lack of a fingerprint scanner, below-average selfie camera, and low processing power in the Mediatek MT6765 Helio P35 (12nm) chipset make are the low points of an otherwise functional, affordable budget phone under Kes 16,000
