Samsung Galaxy A2 Core render leaked, likely to be an Android Go phone

• The Galaxy A2 Core will likely be an Android Go smartphone.
• A new render shows off the Galaxy A2 Core's 16:9 display.
• The Galaxy A2 Core may launch on March 22.

Samsung could soon announce a new Android Go smartphone, called the Galaxy A2 Core. Tipster Evan Blass has shared what looks to be an official press render of the Galaxy A2 Core, and official images of the Galaxy A2 Core have surfaced. You may recall that company launched its first Android Go device, the Galaxy J2 Core, last year with a pretty similar design. The Galaxy A2 Core is possibly its successor considering Samsung has unofficially killed the Galaxy J-series.

Back in February, a Geekbench entry revealed the device's official name - the SM-A260F alongside its key specs.

As with other Android Go phones, internals are hardly inspiring, although the Exynos 7870 chipset is better than what other Go phones offer. The 1GB RAM is about par for the course.

As of now, there is no word on when Samsung will announce the Galaxy A2 Core. The date mentioned on the render is March 22, which could suggest that Samsung will launch the device next week.
