Samsung is allegedly preparing to introduce the Galaxy F16 in India, and a recent leak has indicated the price and availability of its rumor. While the company has not confirmed the official launch date, several leaks suggest whether to expect. According to Tipster Debayan Roy on X (East Twitter), the price of Galaxy F16 is likely to be less than the rupee. 15,000 in India. For comparison, the Galaxy A16 5G, launched in October 2024, began from Rs. 18,999 for 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variants. This suggests that the Galaxy F16 can bring similar glasses at a more competitive price.

The Galaxy F16 is expected to have a 6.7-inch full-HD+ AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. This will probably be powered by a MediaTek dimensions 6300 chipset manufactured on the 6Nm process. The phone has been tipped to come up with 8GB LPDDR4X RAM, which should provide decent performance for everyday tasks and light gaming.

In terms of cameras, the Galaxy F16 is rumored to facilitate triple rear camera setup, the headline by a 50-megapixel primary sensor. It is also expected to include a 5-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, although the details about the third sensor are unclear. For selfie, the phone can sports a 13-megapixel front-facing camera.

Battery life is another area where the Galaxy F16 can shine. It is said to pack a 5,000mAh battery – the same ability to the Galaxy A16 – which should easily run easily for a full day on a charge. Additionally, the phone is expected to support dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) for sharp and stable internet connectivity.

You see, we keep mentioning the Galaxy A16 throughout the article because, the interesting thing is that the Galaxy F16 is rumored to be a rebranded version of A16, which was launched in October last year. This strategy is not new to Samsung, as the company has often released slightly modified versions of the existing models under different chains to complete different markets and price segments.

Flipkart has already teased the arrival of a new Galaxy F-Series phone in India, and all indications indicate it to become the Galaxy F16. This device has also appeared on Samsung India website with model number SM-E166P/DS, which is indicating further at an adjacent launch.
