The device runs on Android 10 with a MediaTek Helio A25 chipset eight Cortex-A53 cores at 1.8 GHz plus a PowerVR GE 8320 GPU at 600 MHz. Still, under the hood, there’s a 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage capacity having an option to expand via the microSD.
The back of the device houses a triple camera setup – 13MP main module, 5MP ultrawide (fixed focus lens), and a 2MP depth sensor. Also, a fingerprint reader. A 4000 mAh battery powers the S12 Lite but charges over an ancient microUSB port. There’s no information about the price; however, we expect to hear about it during the launch.
