Price in Pakistan
Launched in Pakistan in September 2022 and now discontinued — hamariweb lists the variants as discontinued and says the phone is no longer available in Pakistan; it is out of stock at the online stores that still list it. mymobile still lists the 4GB + 64GB at Rs. 27,999, and the live cluster sits at Rs. 27,360–28,700 (yahoomobile 28,700 across Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad; giznext 27,360 for the 4GB + 64GB). MobileDokan’s rows convert to Rs. 40,999 (Official) and Rs. 32,999 (Unofficial) — launch-era Bangladesh prices matching the stale official list price of Rs. 39,999 still shown on whatmobile and hamariweb, so they are named here but not used. The MobileDokan glance price of ৳55,900 is also not used, and the 128GB variant’s last listed price was not verified. All prices Expected; PTA tax not yet confirmed.
4GB + 64GB — Expected: Rs. 27,999
| Model | Samsung Galaxy A04s |
| Price | PKR. 27,999 (Expected) |
| Display | 6.5″ PLS LCD, 90Hz, 720×1600 |
| RAM | 3GB / 4GB |
| ROM | 32GB / 64GB / 128GB |
| Released | September 2022 |
Buying in Pakistan
- Check the IMEI and the exact model SM-A047F — the A04 (Helio P35, dual camera) and A04e (Helio P35, 13MP dual camera) are different phones.
- The phone is discontinued — confirm the unit is new and sealed, not used or refurbished, and check what warranty the seller offers.
- Confirm PTA status via DIRBS; the usual 60-day window applies.
- Make sure it is the A04s (Exynos 850, triple camera, 90Hz display).
Final Verdict
A discontinued 2022 budget phone at Rs. 27,999 — buy it only if the price is right. The 90Hz display, 50MP main camera and 5000mAh battery are still usable for basic daily use, and the microSD slot and headphone jack are genuine conveniences. Its weakest points are the slow Exynos 850, the 5MP selfie camera, the 2MP macro and depth lenses that add almost nothing, and Android 12 with a limited update path. The real catch is that it is discontinued — buy only as a new, sealed unit with a checked IMEI, and only if the price stays near Rs. 27,999.
