Samsung India on Wednesday launched the Galaxy A21s smartphone with a starting price of Rs 16,499. Some of the key features of the device are 5000mAh battery, 48MP quad-rear cameras, and a punch-hole display. The Samsung Galaxy A21s debuted in the UK last month and it has finally arrived in India a month later, a company release said.
The Samsung Galaxy A21s will go on sale starting today via Samsung Opera House, Samsung.com, and other online retailers in the country. The device is available in Black, Blue, and White colour variants. Apart from the base 4GB/64GB model that is priced at Rs 16,499, the Galaxy A21s also comes in a 6GB RAM + 64GB ROM model, which is priced at Rs 18,499.
“Samsung is focused on bringing meaningful innovations to all its consumers. With Galaxy A21s, we are offering the ‘best of everything’ from our A series line up– a true 48 MP quad camera, an immersive HD+ Infinity-O display, and a 5000mAh long-lasting battery. Galaxy A21s also comes with our signature defense-grade Samsung Knox security platform which ensures the safety and security of consumer data,” said Aditya Babbar, Director, Mobile Business, Samsung India.
