As local telcos hop onto the 5G bandwagon, the average Malaysian's mobile experience is about to get better. Whether for watching videos, playing mobile games or more, 5G is the key that will supercharge your mobile experience.

So you see, you now have plenty of incentive to get 5G-capable smartphones. And there are many options out there that are 5G-ready. But if you haven't gotten one, we recommend the latest Samsung Galaxy A series.

The Samsung Galaxy A73 5G is the most powerful model this year and has the largest screen size of the three new models. It uses a different chipset than its counterparts, specifically the Snapdragon 778G 5G chipset. For mid-range phones, this chipset is currently one of the best options. Let's find out if it's the one for you in our full review below.

Today, another smartphone has been added to the certified compatibility list with Malaysia’s 5G network, which is the Samsung Galaxy A73 5G. Announced by Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB) in a press statement, the A73 5G follows other Samsung devices that are already compatible with the 5G network in Malaysia.

It wasn't that long ago that Samsung unveiled a brand new trio Galaxy A33 5G, Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A73 5G altogether. The pre-order for these new devices have begun starting today (21 March) or the Galaxy A53 5G until 25 March 2022, whereas the Galaxy A33 5G and A73 5G will be on until 13 April 2022. The starting price is RM1499 and comes with exclusive pre-order freebies. 

Previously, rumours claimed that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A73 5G will get powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G used by the A52 5G (as there was no Galaxy A72). However, this new information might be good news as it points to that the device will utilize a more powerful chip instead.
