Editor Rating
2.6/5

Samsung Galaxy A12 (India) is the latest smartphone on offer from the popular Korean brand, which brings a refreshed design and slightly updated internals to the budget-friendly A series. You still get a basic plastic body and frame construction, which helps save weight and keep costs down while still giving ample protection against fall damage and scratches. The rear panel is flat and features a matte paint job. There is also a diagonal pattern that is overlayed on top and makes it stand out against the backdrop.

Bottom Line

Samsung Galaxy A12 (India) is a nice and affordable entry-level smartphone that has a decent display, a reliable processor, barely usable cameras and a large but slow-charging battery.
