On 6 March 2024, Samsung released the Samsung Galaxy M14 (not to be confused with Samsung Galaxy M14 5G) which is a similar model to the Samsung Galaxy A05s with different color options and fewer memory configurations. It is considered a rebrand of the Samsung Galaxy A05s.[7][8] Also, on 2 August 2024, Samsung announced the Samsung Galaxy F14, which has only 4/64 GB memory configuration and different colors compared to the Galaxy A05s and Galaxy M14.[8][9] The Samsung Galaxy F14 and Galaxy M14 have very similar specifications but have been created to be sold in different regions.[10]
Hardware
editDespite having similar capabilities in terms of performance and hardware, the A05s gains an edge over the A05 by featuring a biometric fingerprint sensor for an alternative phone unlocking type.
