As seen from the images, the Samsung Galaxy A01 Core will come with thick bezels on the top and bottom, which means you can expect a traditional 18:9 aspect ratio. The design seems to be in line with renders that were leaked by tipster Evan Blass. The right spine of the phone will sport a power button and volume rocker. Additionally, as reported by us previously, the Samsung Galaxy A01 Core will tout plastic build, a single rear camera with LED flash, and microUSB port, 3.5mm headphone jack and a single speaker grille at the bottom edge.

The Samsung Galaxy A01 Core specifications are expected to include an HD+ display and entry-level MT6739WW chipset ticking at its core. The SoC will allegedly be paired with PowerVR GE 8100 GPU and a gigabyte of RAM. The phone will also tout a suite of Android Go apps, such as YouTube Go, Google Go, and Gmail Go, and Samsung apps. There is no word on Samsung Galaxy A01 Core price in India yet, but the entry-level smartphone is likely to retail around Rs 5,000.
