Samsung Galaxy A50 Highlights and Overview

Advertisements

Samsung’s latest Galaxy A50 is a feature packed mid-range smartphone with a huge 6.4-inch AMOLED display and 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution, with Waterdrop notch above the screen. The major selling point of the device is the in-screen fingerprint scanner, which is the first on any of the Galaxy A-series sor far. The Galaxy A50 also comes with a triple rear camera sensor, absent in the previous A-series.

Specification wise, the device is powered by the latest Exynos 9810 Octa-core CPU clocked at 2.3GHz, integrated with Mali-G72 MP3. It has both 4/6 GB RAM and 32/64 GB expandable storage versions.

The aforementioned triple rear camera is a combination of a 25 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultra-wide angle lense, and a 5 MP depth sensor, featuring PDAF, f/1.7 aperture and a single LED flash. At the front, there’s yet another large 25-megapixel front-facing camera for selfie and video chats.

The device retains same 4000mAh built-in battery, with 15W fast charging features as seen on the Galaxy A30, and also supports USB Type-C interface, and Android 9.0 (Pie) out of the box. Other key specifications and silent features of the Samsung Galaxy A50 are contained in the table below.
