These models were officially revealed on September 25, 2023, with the A05 launching on October 15 and the A05s following on October 18, both belonging to the broader Samsung Galaxy A series.

On March 6, 2024, Samsung introduced the Galaxy M14, distinct from the previously known Galaxy M14 5G, followed by the announcement of the Galaxy F14 on August 2, 2024. Both the M14 and F14 are essentially reissues of the Samsung Galaxy A05s, differentiated mostly by their color selections and memory options.

Later in the year, on September 10, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy M05, with the subsequent release of the Galaxy F05 on September 17. Both of these models are rebrands of the original Samsung Galaxy A05 base device, featuring alternate color schemes and memory configurations.

The reliability of the Galaxy A05/F05/M05 lineup has faced considerable criticism due to recurring touch screen malfunctions reported by users.

Design

The front panel consists of glass, whereas the rear varies by model: the Galaxy A05 features glossy plastic with stripe accents, the Galaxy F05 uses plastic with a leather-like finish, the Galaxy M05 has plain glossy plastic, and the Galaxy A05s, Galaxy F14, and Galaxy M14 are constructed with matte plastic backs.

Located on the bottom edge are a 3.5 mm headphone jack, a microphone, a USB-C charging port, and a speaker. The top edge includes an extra microphone. On the left side, depending on the regional variant of the Galaxy A05 and Galaxy A05s, there is either a single SIM or dual SIM tray, while all other models come with a dual SIM tray. The right side houses both the volume control buttons and the power key, which incorporates a fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy A05s, Galaxy F14, and Galaxy M14.
