Galaxy A05s Price in Jordan
Estimate — about JOD 60 & full specs, October 2026 edition
In the “under JOD 100” bracket — see the best alternatives ›
Overview
The Galaxy A05s is a budget phone from Samsung, with an unverified reference price of about JOD 60 (about $85) — an estimate, not a confirmed market price. Below is its full spec sheet with a plain-language breakdown, pros and cons, and how it compares to its rivals. We have not tested this phone ourselves; everything here is derived from published specifications.
Its main highlights: its large 5,000 mAh battery. Its chipset is basic (27/100) — calls, WhatsApp and light browsing, as a first or backup phone.
Performance-index rank: #135 of 342 Samsung phones we list.
Why consider it?
The A05s is the upper half of Samsung's cheapest 2023 pair: a 6.7-inch PLS LCD at 1080x2400, a Snapdragon 680 that Samsung names outright in the product copy, and a 5,000mAh battery with 25W charging support, from ≈ 60 JD. What separates it from the plain A05 is narrow but clear — resolution, a fingerprint sensor, and a third rear lens.
Who it suits
Someone who wants the cheapest new Samsung with a full-resolution screen and a fingerprint reader, for everyday basics: calls, apps and occasional photos.
Who should look elsewhere
Not for anyone who needs 5G or contactless payments — Samsung's sheet records NFC as "No" and lists 2G, 3G and 4G bands only — and not for low-light photography.
Performance, camera, display and battery — and the limits of the evidence
Samsung Levant's SM-A057F table lists an octa-core processor at 2.4GHz and 1.9GHz, while the product copy on the same page names it outright: Snapdragon 680. The display is a PLS LCD measuring 170.8mm, or 6.7 inches, at 1080x2400. The battery is 5,000mAh typical and 4,900mAh rated, with fast charging up to 25W and the charger sold separately. Rear cameras are a 50MP F1.8 plus two 2MP F2.4 lenses, with no optical stabilisation and digital zoom up to 10x, and the front camera is 13MP at F2.0. Maximum video capture is FHD at 60fps. The base configuration is 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, of which Samsung says 45.5GB is actually available, with microSD support up to 1TB in a dedicated tray that takes both SIMs and the card together. Connectivity is Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi up to ac, a Type-C port on USB 2.0, a 3.5mm headphone jack and no NFC. The listed bands stop at 2G, 3G and 4G, so the phone is outside 5G coverage entirely. The body is 168 x 77.8 x 8.8mm at 194g, and the sensor list includes a side fingerprint reader alongside accelerometer, light and proximity. The detail worth noting is Samsung's own security schedule: the A05s currently sits in the group that receives security updates every three months rather than every month, which is a real difference in how quickly patches arrive. Samsung does not publish a refresh rate for this model. We have not tested it or measured its battery or its photos.
Alternatives worth comparing
- Tecno Camon 18T — For the same money (≈ 60 JD) you get a 5,000mAh battery and a slightly larger 6.8-inch screen, but at 60Hz, with only two rear cameras (48+2), a Helio G88 and a 2022 launch date. (60 JOD · estimate) full comparison ›

Verdict — conditional on your needs and the documented price above
If your ceiling is around ≈ 60 JD and you want an FHD+ screen and a fingerprint reader from Samsung, this is the clearest option in the bracket. But its real limit is not speed, it is what is missing: a phone with no NFC and no 5G, and you will run into both of those long before the chip runs out of breath.

Phones JO index (spec-based)
What does that mean in plain words?
Battery: 5,000 mAh — a large capacity by market standards. Capacity is an indicator, not a measurement: real endurance depends on the display, chipset and your usage, and we have not measured it.
Charging: 25W — standard (rated charging power; actual charge time varies with the charger and temperature).
Display: FHD+, 6.7-inch, 90Hz — the panel technology (OLED or LCD) is not recorded for this device, so we make no claim about its contrast.
Camera: 50+2+2 MP (3 lenses) plus a 13 MP front camera. Megapixels and lens count describe the setup, not image quality — real results depend on the sensor and processing, which we have not tested.
Pros & cons
Pros
- 1080x2400 on a 6.7-inch panel, roughly twice the pixel count of the near-identically sized A05 (720x1600)
- Samsung names the chip in the product copy — Snapdragon 680 — and the table records 2.4GHz and 1.9GHz clocks, a naming it does not give the A05
- A side fingerprint sensor the A05 does not have at all, plus a tray that holds two SIMs and a microSD card of up to 1TB at the same time
Cons
- No NFC and no 5G: the band list in Samsung's table stops at 4G, and the NFC row reads "No"
- No optical stabilisation on any lens, zoom is digital up to 10x only, and both helper lenses are 2MP at F2.4
- Samsung places it in the quarterly security-update group rather than the monthly one, and the 25W charger is sold separately per the page's own footnote
