Smartphones can be divided into three basic categories – entry-level, mid-range and flagship. The differences between Samsung’s entry-level and mid-range phones are very subtle, like the Samsung Galaxy J series (J1 to J8) offers entry-level and mid-range models. On the other hand, the Samsung A series features IP68 water-resistance and dual selfie cameras, but spec-wise they are still very similar to the Galaxy J5 and above.
In 2019, Samsung decided to reposition its phone product categories. Their Galaxy J series has been discontinued and replaced by the Galaxy M series, whereas the Samsung Galaxy A series has been repositioned with different specs and features. Let’s have a look at the Samsung Galaxy A50 (officially priced at RM 1199) and see where it is positioned.
