Galaxy A04e
Samsung's sub-$100 entry-level phone with a big 5000 mAh battery.
The Galaxy A04e is a budget Samsung smartphone released Oct 2022, with a launch price of $129. It pairs the MediaTek Helio P35 with a 6.5" HD+ PLS LCD, 60Hz display, a 13 MP + 2 MP depth main camera and a 5000 mAh, 7.75W battery. In SpecEagle's editorial review it scores 50/100 — Why pick the Galaxy A04e? Standout strengths: two-day battery life in actual use and ultra-low price point. Main trade-off: hd-only display feels dated.
