Samsung Galaxy F04: Specs, Price in Pakistan
Samsung Galaxy F04 — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan
The Samsung Galaxy F04 is a 2023 entry-level phone launched exclusively in India as a rebadged Galaxy M04. Samsung pitched it at first-time buyers: a 6.5-inch HD+ screen, MediaTek's Helio P35, 4GB of RAM with virtual-RAM expansion, a 13MP dual camera, and a 5,000mAh battery — all under Rs. 10,000 at launch. Never officially sold in Pakistan, it now exists here only as a used import.

Design and Build Quality
The Galaxy F04 follows Samsung's budget design language of its era: glossy plastic back and plastic frame, sized at 164.2 x 75.9 x 9.1 mm and weighing 188 g. A plain, comfortable handset built for everyday knocks rather than looks. Colours are limited to Jade Purple, Opal Green.
A rebadged version of the Galaxy M04 (India) shares the same chassis, so cases and accessories made for its twin generally fit as well. For security, the phone offers no fingerprint reader — face unlock is the only biometric.
Display Features
The 6.5-inch IPS LCD Infinity-V display with 720 x 1600 (HD+), 20:9 and a 60Hz standard refresh rate (around 270 pixels per inch) is a sensible budget panel: text is readable, colours are natural, and video looks fine at typical viewing distances.
Usable for WhatsApp, YouTube, and browsing — but blacks are greyish and peak brightness is modest, so outdoor visibility in harsh sunlight is average at best.
Processor and Performance
Powering the phone is the MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765), a 12 nm chip with an octa-core (4x2.35 GHz Cortex-A53 + 4x1.8 GHz Cortex-A53) and PowerVR GE8320 graphics — entry-level tier for its generation.
Expect smooth calls, messaging, social apps, and video streaming. Heavy multitasking and 3D games will expose its limits — longer load times and frame drops are normal here. These are specification-based expectations, not hands-on test claims.
RAM and Storage
The Galaxy F04 ships with 4GB (expandable to 8GB via RAM Plus virtual memory) and 64GB of internal storage. MicroSDXC up to 1TB (dedicated slot) means storage anxiety is largely optional — a microSD card holds photos, videos, and offline media cheaply.
Camera Features
Rear cameras: Dual: 13MP (wide, f/2.2) + 2MP (depth, f/2.4). A 13MP main plus a depth helper for portrait shots — a very basic setup suited to daylight social-media photos. Video recording tops out at 1080p at 30fps — standard for the segment, with no 4K option.
Front camera: 5MP (f/2.2) in a waterdrop notch. Fine for video calls and casual selfies in good light; like most budget front cameras, it softens detail and struggles in dim rooms.
Battery and Charging
The 5,000mAh battery is one of the phone's practical strengths — for typical Pakistani usage (calls, WhatsApp, some YouTube, mobile data on), it comfortably lasts a full day and often stretches into a second day on lighter use.
Charging is 15W wired over USB Type-C — unhurried, so overnight charging is the routine. There is no wireless charging.
Software and Updates
The Galaxy F04 launched with Android 12 with One UI Core 4.1. Samsung promised two major OS updates (Android 13 and 14) plus three years of security updates — that coverage has now ended.
A phone inside its update window stays compatible with banking apps longer; one past it suits secondary use better.
Connectivity and Additional Features
Network support is 4G LTE (no 5G support). The SIM setup is dual Nano-SIM plus a dedicated microSD slot, and connectivity includes Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS/GLONASS, USB Type-C 2.0 with OTG, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Biometrics: no fingerprint reader — face unlock is the only biometric. NFC: nFC was not listed on the India model — so do not count on contactless payments unless you verify it on the actual unit.
Variants, Colours and Availability
Official configurations: 4GB (expandable to 8GB via RAM Plus virtual memory) RAM with 64GB storage, in Jade Purple, Opal Green. Announced January 4, 2023; on sale January 12, 2023 (India).
There was never an official Pakistan launch, so Pakistani buyers only encounter imported units — new-import stock for recent models, used handsets for discontinued ones.
Price in Pakistan and PTA Information
The store product page lists the Samsung Galaxy F04 at Rs. 22,000 (verified 2026-10-11) — but this matches the 2026-10-01 catalog import and prices surged after October 6, so confirm the latest price with the store before buying.
PTA and IMEI check before you buy: the entire Galaxy F-series is India-only, so no Galaxy F04 is PTA-approved by default — approval is per device and per IMEI. Before paying, SMS the phone's IMEI to 8484 (PTA DIRBS) and confirm the result with the store. Non-compliant devices can attract registration duty or lose network access. The store’s 7-day check warranty applies to used phones — confirm coverage for the specific unit.
Main Advantages and Limitations
Advantages
- 5,000mAh battery still delivers long runtime for light use
- RAM Plus virtual memory and a dedicated microSD slot give it flexibility unusual at this price
- Received two full Android OS updates — Android 14-era software is serviceable for basic apps
- Clean Samsung build with a glossy finish that looks better than its price
Limitations
- Discontinued; only used units available, and security updates have ended
- Helio P35 is noticeably slow — heavy apps and games lag
- No fingerprint reader at all; face unlock is the only biometric
- 13MP + 2MP camera is very basic; weak low-light performance
- 60Hz HD+ display is unremarkable in 2026
Who Should Consider This Phone?
Used-market reality: the F04 sold well in India, so used units circulate in Pakistan — but three-year-old batteries are the weak point. Test charging from empty to full, open both cameras, and check that face unlock registers — these are the components that fail first on budget handsets of this age.
It does not suit anyone who needs guaranteed software updates for banking apps, heavy gaming performance, or an officially warranted Pakistan unit — for those, browse newer models in the Samsung collection.

Final Verdict
The Galaxy F04 was decent value in 2023 and is now a used-market bargain play only. The Helio P35 is slow by 2026 standards, there is no fingerprint sensor, and security updates have ended. It works as an inexpensive spare for calls and WhatsApp — if the unit checks out and the price is right.
