news hardware Samsung announces a new 5G smartphone that should sell very well
With its Samsung Galaxy A23 5G, the South Korean manufacturer wants to compete with brands like Xiaomi by offering a terminal compatible with very fast mobile phones at an affordable price.
After several years of trying, most smartphone manufacturers have now taken the initiative to release 5G smartphones at attractive prices. Today, Pure 4G models are becoming increasingly rareand this inevitably affects the way people buy their new terminal.
Manufacturers need to release cheap 5G smartphones to attract customers. Because the fact is that the best-selling cell phones are no longer the most expensive: This explains the market rise of brands such as Xiaomi, Oppo or Realme, which offer competitive mid-range smartphones, also in 5G.
Samsung Galaxy A23 5G, a smartphone for less than 320 dollars
For its part, Samsung has never made a secret of the fact that its best-selling smartphone range was the Galaxy A. There are entry-level devices, but also mid-range devices. The prices called start at around 200 dollars for the cheapest models, such as the Samsung Galaxy A13.
The South Korean manufacturer has just formalized its Samsung Galaxy A23 5G, a mid-range 5G model whose release in France has been confirmed. This is a good surprise because initially this smartphone was mainly expected in Asia. If the date of the market launch is imprecise, the manufacturer speaks of “mid-September”. The retail price in France is 319 dollars
Samsung Galaxy A23 5G, the characteristics
The technical sheet of the Samsung Galaxy A23 5G is appealing. We find there:
- A 6.6″ TFT LCD screen in Full HD and 120 Hz,
- A Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor,
- 4GB RAM,
- 50 + 8 + 2 + 2 megapixel photo sensors,
- An 8 megapixel selfie sensor,
- A 5000 mAh battery,
- A storage capacity of 64 GB,
- A microSD card reader,
- A 25 watt fast charge,
- Android 12 and OneUI 4.1.
Among the strengths of this model, therefore, are a very high capacity battery, 5G connectivity and a fairly generous photo section, which, as always, must be judged on the spot.
That should be emphasized In France there will only be a version with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storagebut the integrated microSD card reader accepts models up to 1 TB, which leaves a very comfortable margin.
This Samsung 5G terminal therefore promises to be attractive and if you want to invest in a cheap terminal it might be good to wait for its imminent arrival on the French market.
