Design and Display

As hinted in the introductory paragraph, the Samsung Galaxy F12’s design is basically a reminiscence of a previous Samsung smartphone. Having a look at Samsung’s recent releases hints Samsung has sort of begun adopting a strategy of repeating designs on its low-budget devices.

The reminisced design was earlier seen on the likes of the Samsung Galaxy A12 and the Galaxy M12. Once again it isn’t totally a bad thing to repeat smartphone designs, however, there is no denying the fact that a fresh design is highly appreciated.

Taking scrutiny of this design, we find a line patterned rear cover style, on which you will find a square camera module bearing four cameras. Below the camera module is an LED flash. You will also find the Samsung branding, which indicates it as an OEM.

The front panel bears a 6.5-inch display on which you will find a drop notch. The highlights of this display include a resolution of 720 x 1600 Pixels, a density of 270 PPI, and a 90Hz Refresh Rate.

On the side of build properties, we have plastic on the rear, glass up front, and plastic on the frame. A setup that is pretty much popular amongst low-budget smartphones.

The Cameras

Moving on to the camera department, we have a set of four cameras on the rear and a single camera setup upfront. The cameras in both setups are sort of what you would be expecting from a smartphone in this category.

On the rear, we have a 48MP primary camera with an aperture of f/2.0, a 2MP macro camera with an aperture of f/2.4, a 2MP depth camera with an aperture of f/2.4, and a 5MP ultrawide camera with an aperture of f/2.2. This setup is capable of recording videos up to 1080p @ 30fps.

Selfies are manned by a single 8MP on the teardrop notch on the display. This camera has an aperture of f/2.2 and can record videos up to 1080p @ 30fps.

The other performance facilitators include a Mali-G52 GPU, 4GB RAM, an option for either 64GB or 128GB of internal storage, and a non-removable 6000mAh Li-Po battery.

On the software side, we have the One UI 3.1 user interface running on the Android 11 operating system.

Connectivity

The Samsung Galaxy F12 features low-energy Bluetooth 5.2, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C 2.0.

Internet connectivity on this device is capped at 4G, which means enthusiasts won’t get access to 5G connectivity.
