Samsung Galaxy A11


The Samsung Galaxy A11 is a budget Android smartphone developed by Samsung Electronics. It was first released on May 1, 2020, as a successor to the Samsung Galaxy A10.

Design

The A11 is considerably less compact than its predecessor, measuring 161.4 x 76.3 x 8 mm, and it weighs 177g, 9 grams more than the A10. Looks-wise, the Galaxy A11 looks fairly similar to the Galaxy A10s. It has a thin wraparound bezel surrounding the display, with a considerably bigger bottom bezel. Both phones have a fingerprint scanner on the back, and the camera's positioning is on the top-left on both phones. However, the camera array is the biggest design difference between the A10s and A11. While both have their cameras contained in a small vertical oval, the A11 has an extra camera, and the flash has been moved to the right of the depth sensor rather than below the oval. In addition, the selfie camera's design is different. The A10s had a teardrop notch, while the A11 has a hole-punch in the top-left corner. Also, on the A11, every physical button is on the right side, while on the A10s, the volume buttons were on the left. The A11 comes in four different colors: black, white, red, and blue.

Specifications

Hardware

The Samsung Galaxy A11 has a 6.4" IPS LCD display, with a 1560x720 resolution. The phone has a 1.8GHz Octa-core CPU, and will come with 32GB of storage and either 2 or 3GB of RAM. The phone has a 4000 mAh battery, and supports 15W fast charging.

Cameras

Unlike the Galaxy A10, which had only one rear camera, the A11 will have three. The specs of the main camera are pretty much the same, save for a slight increase in aperture. The A11 also has an ultrawide camera, which will be a 5MP sensor behind an f/2.2 lens. The A11 will also have a 2MP, f/2.4 sensor for depth info. The selfie camera will receive a bump to 8MP. From top to bottom, the order of the cameras is depth sensor, main, ultrawide.

Software

The A11 comes with Android 10 under One UI 2. Judging from previous Samsung phones, it will probably receive Android 11 and 12 when they get released, along with Samsung's skins for those versions, but no further.
