Samsung will soon launch two new smartphones. Dubbed as Galaxy A02 and Galaxy M02, the upcoming Samsung phones have made multiple appearances online ahead of the official launch. Now, the two phones have received Bluetooth SIG certification, hinting at the imminent launch.

The Bluetooth listing, however, does not divulge any specifications of the phones. An older listing on Geekbench benchmarking website revealed the SM-A025F (code name for Galaxy A02) would come with a Qualcomm processor. It will run on Android 10 and offer 2GB of RAM.

The phone is said to come with a 5.7-inch display with HD+ resolution. It will reportedly have three cameras – 13-megapixel and 2-megapixel sensors on the back, and an 8-megapixel sensor on the front. The Galaxy A02 will have Snapdragon 450 processor, according to reports.

As of now, there is no major leak on other details of the two phones. Considering the recent spate of leaks, the phones are likely to go official in the coming weeks.

Separately, Samsung Galaxy S21 is rumoured to launch early next year. The follow up to this year's Galaxy S20 series, the flagship phones will offer a 25W charger. The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, which is going to be the top model of the series, will reportedly feature a 5,000mAh battery.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is tipped to sport an upgraded ISOCELL Bright HM2 sensor (for 108-megapixel primary camera). The smartphone series is expected to get a 4K display with a refresh rate of 120Hz.
