Furthermore, the South Korean tech giant has stated that the upcoming smartphone would be priced below Rs 7,000 in the country. As the name suggests, the Galaxy M02 succeeds the Galaxy M01 lineup that was introduced in India last year.
Notably, Samsung had also launched the Galaxy M02s in Nepal earlier this month at approximately Rs 9,900, for the lone 4GB RAM and 64GB storage variant.

In terms of specification, the dedicated Galaxy M02 page on Samsung India website reveals that the smartphone would feature a 6.5-inch HD+ Infinity V-display with narrow bezels. The company claims that the large display will be ideal for those who enjoy watching movies and videos on their smartphone. To ensure lasting power for seamless entertainment, the Galaxy M02 features a 5,000mAh battery.
Previous reports have also suggested that the Galaxy M02 will be a rebadged version of Galaxy A02s that was launched in Europe in November in 3GB + 32GB and 6GB + 128GB variants. It is further reported to feature Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 SoC under the hood alongside a dual rear camera setup with a 13-megapixel primary sensor, 5-megapixel selfie camera sensor and a USB Type-C port.

The same model number had appeared on the Geekbench website, showing Android 10 out-of-the-box and 3GB of RAM.
