Samsung A series

Introduction

At the end of the first half of the year, Samsung phones have already been presented as the almost renewed of its mobile catalog for 2018, and the giant company focused more on the A-series.

Galaxy A series

The Samsung Galaxy A family integrates the mid-range / high-end models like the Samsung Galaxy S20 or the Galaxy S10 with increasingly more than enough features for those who do not take advantage of the latest innovations. It is difficult to find a smartphone manufacturer as active as them: the Korean giant "churns out" dozens of terminals a year for all budgets and all needs, and keeping up with it is a feat! There is so much freedom of choice, but you never know which one to go to when buying a new phone.

Here is why we decided on this guide to give you some advice on which A series device you should go for. Here, we’ll discuss the models from the A-series lineup and find out which one suits your needs.

Most Samsung phones are equipped with a Super AMOLED display (the more pixels there are, the more defined the images and texts reproduced on display). A larger screen can make the consumption of content more comfortable, but it can decrease the handling of the produced phone.

Galaxy A

The first generation came out some years back; the design is sleek, thus maintaining the essence of a high-end appearance together with the competent performance which provides a pleasant experience.

On the other hand, the 2020 Samsung Galaxy A series offers something for everyone at every price point in the budget segment.

There is an ethos that the entire lineup sticks to, they all have a stylish design, a bigger battery, and a better camera experience than their direct competition. All the phones in this A-series deliver on this expectation.

This series has come a long way and it has now become a bonafide competitor in the market. They have significantly improved its Galaxy A phones in 2020 to stand head and shoulders above the competition. If you're on a bit of a budget, you should take a look at used mobile phones.

Which smartphone to go for

Ready to find out which smartphone best suits your needs and budget? If your answer is yes, take five minutes of your time and take a look at the Samsung A series listed below:

A20

In the range of lower Samsung phones, we have the Samsung A20, a device with an excellent quality-price ratio for those who need an essential and reliable product, even if not too fast.

The dimensions are more compact than the Samsung A10: we have a 6.4-inch display which is bigger than the Samsung Galaxy S8, has a lower weight, and a 3GB of RAM with 32GB of expandable internal storage.

This model has a 4,000mAh battery and easily lasts a whole day so, you won't need a carry a portable battery pack with you at all times, it can also integrate two SIMs simultaneously, and is sold with Android 9 pre-installed.

If you love a fast-charging phone, then you’ll love this phone because it supports 15W fast charging and a pair of cameras at the rear with an ultra-comprehensive angle module. It is more complete than Galaxy A10, thanks to the presence of a rear fingerprint sensor. The price of a Grade A refurbished A20 is $179 AUD in Australia and it may vary according to the grade and condition.

A30

If you want to stay under 200 euros, I suggest this device, not the most recent but still a great phone. This uses a 6.4 ″ (drop notch), made with Super AMOLED technology even if only at HD resolution (1080 x 2340 pixels).

It also has an octa-core Exynos 7904 processor, versions with 3 or 4GB of RAM and 32/64 / 128GB of storage expandable via a dedicated microSD slot, while the battery is 4,000mAh and supports fast charging too.

This device can use Bluetooth 5.0 protocol, supports AC networks, and has the NFC module for contactless payments. The fingerprint sensor is not very fast, but it is comfortable since it is rear mounted. A refurbished A30 will set you back $229 AUD in Australia.

A71

It is a tad higher than others; a mid-range that has offered a compelling value for money since its launch, its design is sleek and light-weighted.

 It supports face unlocking, unlocking with fingerprint, and has good specifications.

The performance, of course, is not top of the range, but we have a good 6.7 ″ Super AMOLED Plus display with 1080 x 2400 pixel resolution, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 chipset (consisting of 8 cores which are clocked at 2x2.2 GHz Kryo 470 Gold & 6x1.8 GHz Kryo 470 Silver), 64 or 128GB of internal memory (expandable with microSD, with dedicated slot), 6 or 8GB of RAM and a 4,500 mAh battery with excellent autonomy. You can find great mobile phone deals online these days.

It features a four rear camera setup, 64MP + 12 + 5MP+ 5MP capable of recording videos at 4K / 30fps and a front camera from 32MP with aperture f / 2.2 (wide) capable of recording videos at 1080p / 30fps. It measures 163.6 x 76 x 7.7 mm for 179g of weight and has Android 10 customized with the OneUI 2.5. A refurbished or open-box A71 will cost you approx. $569 AUD in Australia.

SAMSUNG AND 5G MOBILES

They’re one of the first telecommunication giants to put a 5G commercial mobile on the market, as is the case with the Galaxy S10 Plus 5G and the Samsung A50 5G.

This way, it tries to lead this new technology that differs from its 3G because of the high transfer speed and low latency rates.

They are also going to take part in this new technology with its infrastructure division, offering operators the possibility of creating their 5G networks with Samsung antennas and base stations.
