News & Reviews:   Samsung Galaxy A80 announce

In China, the Samsung Galaxy A60 was launched alongside the Samsung Galaxy A40s. The A60 comes with two very interesting features which are the Infinity-O display and the Screen Cast technology which uses its entire screen as a speaker.

Sure the Samsung Galaxy A80 is cool and all but it's the Samsung Galaxy A70 smartphone that everyone asks the price for. Samsung had announced that pre-orders for the device is now open. The 6GB + 128GB variant will be priced at 2999 Yuan (~RM1839) and the 8GB + 128GB variant at 3299 Yuan (~RM2023).

The Samsung Galaxy A70 looks like any ordinary smartphone on the market, unlike the Samsung Galaxy A80. However, it does have some impressive tech specs which include the Snapdragon 675 chipset, a 4500mAh battery capacity with 25W fast charging and supports expandable memory up to 512GB. It features a 32MP selfie camera housed in the Infinity-U notch and as for the rear camera, you’ll find a triple camera setup with 35MP + 5MP (ultra-wide) + 8MP sensors.

In terms of design, it does have an array of colours to choose from which are Laser Black, Pearl White, Coral Orange and more. No sign of a Malaysia price yet or Malaysia release date yet but we’ll let you know on TechNave.com when we do. Is the price of this device what you expected it to be?

As announced earlier, the once entry-level tier Galaxy J series are now being replaced by the Galaxy A series which explains why we are seeing so many models this year. That said, Samsung has also just announced the latest entry which is the Samsung Galaxy A80 (which we previously thought was the Samsung Galaxy A90) along with the Samsung Galaxy A70 making an appearance. 

The Galaxy A80 will be available on 29 May 2019 globally, so it should arrive in Malaysia on the same date. No news yet where exactly it will be made available but we assume that it will be at all authorized resellers and online channels such as the official Samsung stores at Shopee and Lazada. 

Samsung Malaysia posted a video on their Youtube channel mentioning that the A series will be replacing the Samsung Galaxy J series. We aren’t surprised at this year only brand new phones from the A and M series have been released.
