Design and Display

The front is covered in glass with a V-notch for the front facing camera. On the back, you will see the three cameras with an LED flash.
Photography and Videos
Samsung Galaxy A04s adds an additional sensor on the back compared to the vanilla model. Aside the 50 megapixels wide angle camera and 2 megapixels depth camera on the vanilla model, this Samsung phone also adds a 2 megapixels macro lens.

The chipset is built on a dual-cluster architecture with two Cortex-A55 quad-core processors clocked at 2.0GHz respectively with a Mali-G52 GPU for graphics.
