Samsung Galaxy F series phone teased ahead of India launch


Samsung has started teasing the launch of the company’s next Galaxy F series smartphone in India on Flipkart. The teaser says “Samsung got something FRESH on the way!” without revealing any other details.

The Samsung Galaxy F06 with the model number SM-E066B/DS and Galaxy F16 with the model number SM-E166P/DS recently showed on Samsung India support page. The Galaxy F16 even showed up on the Geekbench listing last month, so we can expect the phone to launch in the country.

This reveals MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, 8GB of RAM and Android 14 with One UI 6. This is similar to the specifications of the Galaxy A16, which was launched back in October.

To remind you, the A16 pack a 6.7-inch FHD+ 90Hz Super AMOLED display with a notch, 50MP main + 5MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro camera, 13MP front camera and a 5000mAh battery with 25W charging support. Like the Galaxy F15, the Galaxy F16 could get a bigger, 6000mAh battery.

Will it get the same 6 OS updates and 6 years of security updates like the Galaxy A16? We will know soon. The phone is expected to launch later this February.
