The smartphone, sporting model number SM-F415F, scored 348 and 1,339 points on the single and multi-core tests respectively. The benchmark scores hint at its mid-range-level capabilities.

As said earlier, Samsung's Galaxy F series phones will be priced between ₹15,000 and ₹20,000. The phones will also focus on the camera. The first phone under the Galaxy F series is expected to be available via online retail channels only. The company may later make the phone available to offline channels as well.
