Samsung Galaxy A50 Quick Review

Ever since Exynos 9610 SoC was announced last year by Samsung, it didn’t make it into any smartphone. The Galaxy A50 is the device that pioneers the mid-range chipset. Its superb actions are mainly orchestrated by an octa-core 2.3GHz Cortex-A73 CPU. Meanwhile, the Mali-G72 GPU stationed on it sorts out graphics dissemination.

What helps the chip to coordinate multitasking and smooth running of apps is the 4GB RAM. Even more, there’s a bigger 6GB RAM version for more of such juice. For the 4GB RAM variant, the internal storage partition is 64GB. Such storage space is more than enough to store thousands of songs, videos and photos. Trust Samsung; the 6GB RAM iteration comes with 128GB ROM for next-to-zero storage headaches.

In the display department, a 6.4 inches Super AMOLED screen teams up with resolution 1080 x 2340 pixels and pixel density of 403PPI. Amazingly, the AMOLED screen doesn’t only provide display fullness; it also contributes to the phone’s security. How’s that? The fingerprint scanner got placed under the panel; thus, you’ll need to put your hands in the lower third portion of the screen to lock or unlock the smartphone.

Photography is one of the aspects we all look forward to in smartphones. Samsung did an excellent job in this device as three cameras and LED flash are aboard. The quality of the cameras includes 25MP, 8MP and 5MP. At the face of the phone, there’s a 25MP camera for selfie shots. Finally, a Fast Charging 4,000mAh battery is the power source of the phone.
