Samsung Galaxy A14 specs leak reveals 50MP camera, 5000mAh battery
Everyone is looking for the flagship Samsung Galaxy S23 series but we should not forget that the company is also working on other mid-range and budget smartphones as well. Last month we saw the renders of the Samsung Galaxy A14 smartphone and now some of its key specs have been merged online.
According to the new information via GalaxyClub, the upcoming Galaxy A14 smartphone will equip a battery that bears model number EB-BA146ABY. This battery is of 4900mAh capacity, which means the company could advertise the phone with a typical battery of 5000mAh.

In addition to this, the device will feature a 50MP primary camera. It’s worth noting that Galaxy A13 also equips a 50MP primary camera and there is a high chance that Samsung will use the same camera sensor in the forthcoming device as well.

Furthermore, while these specs of the Samsung Galaxy A14 are similar to its predecessor, the device will see an upgrade on the front camera side. As per the leak, it will equip a 13MP selfie shooter, which is an upgrade from a 5MP and 8MP selfie camera of A13 4G and A13 5G, respectively.
Besides these, there is nothing that the new information reveals, whereas, previous details claim that we will see a larger 6.8-inches FHD+ LCD display compared to the 6.6-inch panel of the A13. Also, it has dimensions of 167.7 x 78.7 x 9.3mm.
OnLeaks revealed the renders of the Galaxy A14 smartphone in the previous weeks. This shows that the display has changed to Infinity-U instead of Infinity-V. Whereas, on the back, the device has a circular triple camera design.
Samsung still doesn’t want to cancel the Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy S25 series. A new report from a Korean media outlet suggests that the company still believes that the 3nm yield will improve and reach the mass production milestone.
Hankyung reports that Samsung could make a final decision on the Exynos 2500 in Galaxy S25 later this month or early next month. The current stage doesn’t imply Exynos in Samsung’s upcoming flagship smartphones.
Samsung had high hopes for Exynos 2500 due to its cutting-edge 3nm foundry process. The chipset is still under development, but a lower-than-expected yield rate is ruining Samsung’s dreams of debuting in-house 3nm Exynos for Galaxy.
A Samsung official stated, “We will consider the possibility of using Exynos until the very end.”
The Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus come with an Exynos 2400 processor. The Galaxy S24 Ultra exclusively uses Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. However, the same chip distribution is currently unlikely in next year’s flagship smartphone family.
Following overheating and throttling reports in the Exynos 2200, Samsung canceled the Exynos 2300. The Galaxy S23 series exclusively used Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy processor supplied by Qualcomm.
Reason why Exynos is imp:
If Samsung opts to solely rely on Qualcomm, it will likely face higher costs, even if it tries to negotiate a premium price. This cost burden is becoming more prominent, especially as MX’s operating profit is declining despite rising sales.
Addressing yield issues and using Exynos in Galaxy S25 would be ideal for Samsung’s System LSI and MX Division. Meanwhile, any performance issue won’t allow Samsung Elec to pursue Exynos 2500 in the flagship smartphone lineup.
In October 2024, Samsung updated its Galaxy Enhance-X app, which brings the popular Camera Shift feature to more devices. This feature helps you take and edit full-body photos easily. If you own a compatible Samsung device, you can take advantage of the Camera Shift feature.
