It also features dual rear cameras — one with 13MP at f/2.2 aperture, while the other is a depth lens at 2MP. A 5MP selfie camera completes the package.
The phone is packed with a 3000mAh battery, to which Samsung VN promises a full day’s worth of normal usage. There’s also Android 10 right out of the box with the company’s OneUI 2 on top.
