Samsung A05a uses eMMC 5.1 storage, not UFS 2.2. Check gsmarena.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVPCzUtto3g at 6:13 it says UFS. GSM Arena just copies store info without real testing.

GSMArena info isn’t always 100% correct. Sometimes they share wrong details.

A05s on Android 14 uses One UI 6.0, not core version. Check Sammobile: https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-a05s-android-14-one-ui-6-update-released/

I use A05s. It came with Android 13 and One UI Core 5.1. After updating to Android 14, One UI is no longer the Core version.

Update: A05s uses UFS 2.2, not eMMC 5.1. I tested it myself.

Tested Galaxy A05s: sequential read ~958 MB/s, write ~225 MB/s. UFS 2.1 typical speeds: read 850+ MB/s, write 250 MB/s. So Galaxy A05s uses UFS 2.1, not eMMC 5.1, proven by AnTuTu.
