Samsung Galaxy A12 Nacho has quietly been launched in Russia by the South Korean company as an upgrade to its Galaxy A12. On the specifications front, the new smartphone is quite similar to the original Galaxy A12 that arrived in November last year. It, however, appears to have a new Exynos chip to deliver an updated experience over the earlier model that had a MediaTek SoC.
Samsung Galaxy A12 Nacho runs on Android 11 with One UI Core 3.1 on top. It features a 6.5-inch HD+ (720×1,600 pixels) PLS TFT display with a 20:9 aspect ratio. The phone is powered by an octa-core SoC that is reported to be Exynos 850 (no details mentioned on the official website), along with up to 4GB of RAM.
It comes with a quad rear camera setup that houses a 48MP primary sensor with an f/2.0 lens, along with a 5MP ultra-wide shooter, a 2-megapixel depth sensor, and a 2MP macro sensor. For selfies and video chats, the Samsung Galaxy A12 Nacho sports an 8MP selfie camera sensor at the front with an f/2.2 lens.
Connectivity options include 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth v5, GPS/ A-GPS, NFC, USB Type-C, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Sensors onboard include an accelerometer, ambient light, and a proximity sensor. There is also a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Samsung has provided a 5,000mAh battery that is claimed to deliver up to 20 hours of constant Internet usage on a single charge. The battery also supports 15W fast charging.
Samsung Galaxy A12 Nacho price has been set at RUB 11,990 (roughly Rs. 12,100) for the 3GB + 32GB storage variant, while its 4GB + 64GB storage option carries a price tag of RUB 13,990 (Rs. 14,100). The phone comes in three different color options – Black, Blue, and Red.
