Editorial report
Samsung Galaxy A50 technical sheet
The Samsung Galaxy A50 suits someone looking for an everyday phone with a strong screen and flexible cameras; the trade-off is 15 W charging, below average for phones launched around the same time. Its 4,000 mAh battery has more capacity than most of those phones.
The 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display has a density of 403 ppi, higher than that of most phones from its time. Its 60 Hz refresh rate is average. The body is 7.7 mm thick and weighs 166 g. A fingerprint reader sits under the display, which also includes Always-On Display and Gorilla Glass 3.
For photography, the rear main camera’s f/1.7 aperture is among the brightest of its time. It is joined by an 8 MP ultrawide camera, while the front camera is 25 MP; video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps. The AnTuTu benchmark is above average, and connectivity is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The phone has 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, expandable with a card up to 512 GB. NFC, USB Type-C and a 3.5 mm audio jack are also included.
Its NeoScore is 5.0. The Galaxy A50 is worth considering for someone who prioritizes the display, camera options and expandable storage, and can accept slower charging.
