Samsung Galaxy A series review

Riding on the success of their previous launch, Samsung India unveiled 5 new versions of their popular A series, on the same day. The 5 new models included : Galaxy A13/A23/A33 5G/A53 5G and the flagship A73 5G. Speaking at a launch event in Chennai, Mahesh Alanthat, Director and Head of Retail and Marketing quoted that “At Samsung, we believe in Openness with the Galaxy experience powering endless possibilities. The Galaxy A series epitomises that belief by making flagship-like features accessible at an affordable price point. The five new models we are launching are curated to inspire consumers with style, power and versatility”. Let’s now look at this Samsung Galaxy A series review.

With a significant ramp up from their predecessors, the new models now comes with refreshing colours , more advanced features and importantly priced at affordable ranges in the mid-tier segment.

A Special look at the A73 5G

One of the flagship phones that was launched at the event was the Galaxy A73 5G . As a first, Samsung has opted to go with a massive 108mp camera along with Optical Image Stabilization. The phone is powered by the Snapdrgaon 778 5G processor, wit an AMOLED+ display . This power packed feature combo can definitely be a major selling point in this flagship model. But the price is yet to be revealed and have only started with pre-bookings in their website.

From my personal experience while demoing the phone , I found it to have a bright vivid display. It felt super light (like literally feather light), had a super fast responsive touch screen and quick app loading time . I generally test it with opening multiple apps at the same time and there was no lag observed whatsoever. The phone’s camera was really good and had some nice pics that came out even in low light. Hopefully if the pricing is right, this can definitely be a big hit for them.

Summary – Galaxy A Series Review

With the launch of these 5 models , as a fresh upgrade to the previous versions, Samsung has really brought in a compelling statement for the Mid-range buyers (in the 15-35K segment). A super light weight device, power packed with 5000mah battery, AMOLED displays and fast charging support, the A23-33-53-73 really looks like a convincing deal for buyers. With a reliable long lasting Exynos processor in their 33 and 53 models, this also gives them the edge to be price competitive. Can it dent the existing market of other brands and push their existing 25% market share? Let’s wait and watch
