In October, we learnt that Samsung had plans to release a ‘Lite’ version of two of its popular flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10. We also learnt that the Galaxy S10 Lite (codenamed SM-G770F) would come in white, black, and blue colours. A recent certification made by Anatel (or the National Telecommunications Agency) in Brazil now suggests that the upcoming Galaxy S10 Lite will sport a fairly large 4370mAh battery.
According to a post published by Gurugram-based comparisons site IndiaShopps, the report from Anatel indicates that the Galaxy S10 Lite will have a minimum battery capacity of 4370mAh, which means the unit's typical capacity should be close to 4500mAh. This is much more than the Galaxy S10's 3400mAh unit and the Galaxy S10e's 3100mAh unit. What's more, recent rumours suggest the Galaxy S10 Lite's large battery will be complemented by a 45W fast charging kit.
From all that we've learnt so far, the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite is a rebranded and repackaged Galaxy A91. It could be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage space that's expandable up to 512GB using a microSD card. We expect the phone to run Android 9 Pie right out of the box with Samsung's proprietary One UI on top. Like the Galaxy S10, the ‘Lite’ model could be available in Prism Black, Prism Blue, and Prism White colours.
Unlike its current cousins, the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite is expected to come with a much larger 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. On the back panel, the handset could have as many as three cameras, including a 48MP primary sensor with an f/2.0 aperture, a 12MP ultra-wide sensor with an f/2.2 aperture, and a 5MP depth sensor with an f/2.2 aperture. The single selfie camera is expected to be a 32MP sensor with an f/2.2 aperture. We expect to learn more about this phone in the coming weeks.
