Samsung launched a new budget phone specifically in the Indian market. This new smartphone is almost the same as the Galaxy A15 5G but goes by the name of Galaxy F15 5G instead. Let’s take a look at the new Samsung Galaxy F15 5G and discuss it in further detail.
Samsung Galaxy F15 5G Overview
Design and Display
We all know that Samsung adopted a uniform design for its devices all across the board. As such, this phone also has the signature Galaxy design with a mono-tone finish and vertically aligned camera cutouts. Even though this phone appears to be a rebrand of the Galaxy A15, you don’t get the “Key Island” that you get on its A-series counterpart.
Meanwhile, on the screen side of things, we get the same 6.5-inch Super AMOLED screen on the Samsung Galaxy F15 5G. It is an FHD+ panel that spans 2,340 x 1,080 pixels while offering a 90Hz refresh rate and a colour depth of 16 million. Additionally, the screen can reach a brightness of up to 800 nits.

Performance
The Samsung Galaxy F15 5G is similar to the Galaxy A15 5G (review) in the performance department as well. However, the processors on both these phones are the same i.e. MediaTek Dimensity 6100+. This chipset comes with eight cores, 6nm fabrication, and a peak clock speed of 2.2 GHz.
Even though the silicon on both phones is the same, the Samsung Galaxy F15 5G comes only in 4GB and 6GB memory options while the A15 also offers 8GB configurations. Meanwhile, you only get 128 gigs of internal storage to go with this phone. Additionally, it appears that you can virtually extend the memory on this phone and get up to 12GB of dynamic RAM. Similarly, you can also expand your storage up to a terabyte with a MicroSD card.
On the software end, you get the full Galaxy experience with OneUI based on Android 14. One of the interesting features of this phone is that you can cancel the background noise during calls with Voice Focus mode. In addition to that, you also get four years of software updates and five full years of security patches on your Samsung Galaxy F15 5G.
Camera and the rest
Moving on to the optics department, you get a 50MP primary shooter on this phone. You also get two auxiliary lenses on the Samsung Galaxy F15 5G, the larger of which is a 5MP ultrawide shooter. Lastly, you get a 2MP macro shooter which has next to no usability in your camera experience. In the meantime, a 13MP camera handles all the selfies and face unlocking responsibility.
The battery is one category you see an immediate difference between the Samsung Galaxy F15 5G and the A15. The former comes with a larger 6,000 mAh cell while boasting the same 25W charging speed. Other than that, you get the same dual SIM, 5G cellular, dual-band WiFi, and Bluetooth v5.3 support on this phone. Meanwhile, for wired connections, you get both USB Type-C as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack.
