What's the story
As an addition to its budget-friendly Galaxy A series of smartphones, South Korean tech giant Samsung is working to launch the Galaxy A31 in India soon.

First, a bit about Geekbench and its scores
Geekbench is a cross-platform processor benchmark platform which grades processors on their single-core and multi-core performances. While calculating multi-core scores, Geekbench runs multiple streams of instructions simultaneously per core and reports an aggregate score. With single-core scores, the same process is applied but on a single core. The quicker a CPU completes the instructions, the higher is its Geekbench score.

What are A31's scores?
The Galaxy A31 is listed on Geekbench with model number- SM-A315F. The listing, with an upload date of March 4, reveals that the handset has received a single-core score of 349 and a multi-core score of 1,291.
Design and display
How will it look like?
It is yet to be revealed if the upcoming Galaxy A31 will retain the waterdrop notched design of the Galaxy A30s/A30 models or get a different design. However, quite like the Galaxy A30 smartphones, we expect the upcoming handset to offer an AMOLED screen and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor for secure biometric authentication.
