With the launch of the Samsung Galaxy A50 smartphone , the prestigious company seems finally ready to stand up in the mid-range terminal sector. We have messed it around for a short time courtesy of the manufacturer. We have enjoyed the mobile and now is the time to tell you how we found the device and the experience it provides. We will see how this new reference to the Samsung Galaxy M20 , which we also analyze on the web, surpasses . Yes you want to discover all that gives of the A50 from Samsung do not forget to read the review.

Unboxing and design of the Samsung Galaxy A50: Samsung Galaxy A50, we tested this smartphone

The Samsung Galaxy A50 with its box

The Galaxy A50  from Samsung  is presented in a simple and effective carton color white , with a screen image and the device cover on the front accompanied by the brand and large print reference model.

The reverse of the packaging

Some of the smartphone’s features are briefly detailed behind . Employing some sketchy icons that highlight the best virtues of the A50 .

Accessories included in the box

The box costs a bit to open, since the upper part fits completely with the lower part. Inside the phone is deposited on a cardboard cradle, and under it are the accessories:

• Extraction ring
• Power adapter
• USB Cable
• Headphones

Design

The terminal stands out for its lightness, even though it is a large device. With frames reduced to the minimum expression, the screen extends practically across the entire front, lacking any front button. The display is only disturbed by the drop-type notch . It does not reach 170 grams of weight. And everything is integrated into a body of 158.5 x 74.7 x 7.7 mm .

A light and comfortable structure in hand

Its rounded metal edge makes it very pleasant in hand, and super comfortable to hold. The only downside we can put to the A50 is its manufacture is not having extended that metal from the edge to the back. Well, actually what it has is a plastic cover . However, it is quite well hidden by its mirrored treatment. It can be found in four different colors. We have received the blue one , but it is also sold in black , white and coral .

The housing, although made of plastic, appears to be a better material due to its glass effect

The mobile has only two side buttons on the right side: power and volume control. The bottom has the USB connector and the headphone jack . On the left side is the slot for cards .

Technical details of the Samsung Galaxy A50

We leave aside the physical aspect of the smartphone and stop at its hardware characteristics .

Screen

There is no doubt when you turn on the phone that the best thing about it is its screen. The panel SuperAMOLED of 6.4 inches , provides a resolution FHD + of 2340 x 1080 pixels . Occupying more than 90% of the front, it is a visual pleasure, which reflects quality brightness and contrasts. Its good viewing angles  as well as outdoor visibility make it one of the best screens in its segment that have ever passed through our hands.

A display worthy of Samsung

Performance

To thoroughly test the terminal we have subjected it to the AnTuTu test . It is discovered with some satisfaction as its processor Exynos 9610 of eight cores delivers what it promises, reaching the average results of its range of competitors. The sensations, leaving aside the numbers, are those of a fluid performance, without obstacles in the loading and operation of the Apps . With 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage it is very solvent for what we demand of a model of its cost.

Performance Test Result

Cameras

One aspect that the brand is quite satisfied with in its Samsung Galaxy A50 is the triple camera with an ultra wide angle of 123º . Our use has discovered us a device that complies correctly in taking pictures, but not beyond what is usually obtained for this price. Put aside the worries and limit itself to the user enjoying pointing and shooting, choosing at all times one of its three options: classic , wide angle and portrait mode .

Battery

A pleasant surprise of the Samsung Galaxy A50 is undoubtedly the 4000 mAh capacity battery . And it should not surprise you if we confirm that it perfectly withstands intensive daily use from sunrise to sunset.

Operating system and connectivity

How could it be otherwise, this is a terminal that works using the Android system . From the factory it comes with version 9 , with a Samsung layer , the so-called One UI interface . Simple and straightforward, it makes it easy to start using the phone almost instantly. The clean and large icons quickly lead us to perform the tasks we want. The A50 also includes good security options: fingerprint protection , and face unlock . The fingerprint sensor is on the screen, using optical technology not as fast as expected. Facial recognition works surprisingly well, and faster.

The connectivity meets the requirements that can be demanded of a terminal of this price. A current connection USB of type C allows us to communicate at high speed telephone cable with other devices, in addition to offering fast load 15 W . We will also find speed in wireless communications, as the A50 includes WiFi 802.11a / b / g / n / ac 2.4 + 5GHz , and   Bluetooth 5.0 . Beyond the USB port it only has a standard 3.5 headphone jack. Great for connecting the included headphones.

Conclusions about the Samsung Galaxy A50: Samsung Galaxy A50, we tested this smartphone

Samsung Galaxy A50, a device with an excellent quality / price ratio

We found the Samsung Galaxy A50 smartphone to be a very convincing device. A mid-range that cannot be blamed for any lack of relevance. Offering an attractive, handy and lightweight design, it is more than capable of withstanding the most intensive days of use with its large battery. Its splendid screen provides an enjoyment that no mobile in its range / price comes close to. Therefore, considering the competition it faces and its cost, the Samsung Galaxy A50 is worthy of our Gizlogic Gold Award .
