Samsung Galaxy F05: Specs, Price in Pakistan
Samsung Galaxy F05 — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan
The Samsung Galaxy F05 is a September 2024 India-only launch — effectively a Galaxy A05/M05 with a leather-pattern back and a sharper price. Its pitch: the MediaTek Helio G85, a big 6.7-inch HD+ screen, a 50MP main camera, and 5,000mAh with 25W charging, all for under Rs. 8,000 at launch. Remaining units in Pakistan are imports or used stock.

Design and Build Quality
The Galaxy F05 follows Samsung's budget design language of its era: vegan-leather-pattern back with a plastic frame and glass front, sized at 168.8 x 78.2 x 8.8 mm and weighing 195 g. A plain, comfortable handset built for everyday knocks rather than looks. Colours are limited to Twilight Blue (the sole launch colour).
A rebadged version of the Galaxy A05 / M05, distinguished by its leather-pattern back shares the same chassis, so cases and accessories made for its twin generally fit as well. For security, the phone offers face unlock is the listed biometric; a fingerprint reader was not confirmed on the official spec sheet.
Display Features
The 6.7-inch PLS LCD Infinity-V display with 720 x 1600 (HD+), 20:9 and a 60Hz standard refresh rate (around 262 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 G85, a 12 nm chip with an octa-core (2x2.0 GHz Cortex-A75 + 6x1.8 GHz Cortex-A55) and Mali-G52 MC2 graphics — budget 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 F05 ships with 4GB (expandable to 8GB via RAM Plus virtual memory) and 64GB (eMMC 5.1) 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: 50MP (wide, f/1.8, autofocus) + 2MP (depth, f/2.4). The 50MP main sensor is a genuine step up from the 13MP units on older F models; daylight photos and portrait mode are noticeably better. Video recording tops out at 1080p at 30fps — standard for the segment, with no 4K option.
Front camera: 8MP (f/2.0) 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 25W wired over USB Type-C (charger not always included — check the unit) — unhurried, so overnight charging is the routine. There is no wireless charging.
Software and Updates
The Galaxy F05 launched with Android 14 with One UI Core 6.0. Samsung promised two major OS updates and up to four years of security updates.
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 5 (dual-band), Bluetooth 5.3, GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou, USB Type-C 2.0 with OTG, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Biometrics: face unlock is the listed biometric; a fingerprint reader was not confirmed on the official spec sheet. 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 (eMMC 5.1) storage, in Twilight Blue (the sole launch colour). Announced September 17, 2024; on sale September 20, 2024 (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 F05 at Rs. 26,000 (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 F05 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
- Helio G85 is the strongest 4G chip in this F-series slice — handles light gaming well
- 50MP main camera is a clear step up from the 13MP shooters on older F models
- 25W wired charging fills the 5,000mAh battery noticeably faster than 15W rivals
- Leather-pattern back feels more premium than typical budget plastic
- Two promised OS updates give the software more life than the F02s/F04
Limitations
- India-only launch; no official Pakistan support or local warranty
- 60Hz HD+ display — sharpness and smoothness lag behind even budget AMOLEDs
- No 5G support from the Helio G85
- No confirmed fingerprint reader on the spec sheet
- 64GB base storage feels tight in 2026 despite microSD expansion
Who Should Consider This Phone?
Used-market reality: the F05 is young enough (2024) that used units usually still have healthy batteries, but because it was an India-only budget phone, check for regional firmware quirks — confirm it accepts a Pakistani SIM and updates its apps normally before you commit.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of Samsung Galaxy F05 in Pakistan?

No. It is a 4G-only phone — the MediaTek Helio G85 has no 5G modem.
What processor does it use?
The MediaTek Helio G85 (12 nm), an octa-core (2x2.0 GHz Cortex-A75 + 6x1.8 GHz Cortex-A55), paired with a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU.
What are its RAM and storage options?
4GB (expandable to 8GB via RAM Plus virtual memory) of RAM with 64GB (eMMC 5.1) of internal storage. Storage is expandable: microSDXC up to 1TB (dedicated slot).
How good is its camera?
Rear: Dual: 50MP (wide, f/1.8, autofocus) + 2MP (depth, f/2.4). The 50MP main sensor is a genuine step up from the 13MP units on older F models; daylight photos and portrait mode are noticeably better. Front: 8MP (f/2.0) in a waterdrop notch.

Final Verdict
The Galaxy F05 is the sweet spot of the older 4G F-series: the Helio G85 and 50MP camera outclass the F02s and F04, and 25W charging is a real upgrade. Limits are the 60Hz HD+ screen and no 5G. A fair pick as a reliable daily driver at the right used price — after a PTA IMEI check.
