Frequently asked

Does the Galaxy A07 support 5G?

No, the standard Galaxy A07 is a 4G LTE phone. Samsung sells a separate Galaxy A07 5G model with a different chipset.

How long will the Galaxy A07 get updates?

Samsung commits to six generations of OS upgrades and six years of security updates, extending support to roughly August 2031.

When will the Galaxy M07 stop getting updates?

Samsung has committed to six generations of OS upgrades and six years of security patches from the phone's late-2025 launch, with support listed into 2031. That is remarkable for a phone that costs under ₹8,000. It ships on Android 15 with One UI 7.

Is the Galaxy M07 worth buying in 2026?

As a first phone, a backup, or a device for a child or an elderly relative, it is excellent value: six years of security on a sub-$100 phone is barely more than a dollar a month of safe use. Just go in knowing the screen is only 720p and there is no 5G or NFC. Anyone who wants 5G should stretch to the A07 5G.
