Budget smartphones are hugely competitive (see p91), with everyone and his cousin fighting it out for that profitable bottom end of the market. By comparison, flagships get along rather well. Samsung’s Galaxy A32 is out to steal someone’s lunch, with an excellent display, better-than-average camera and attractive good looks packed into an affordable frame.
The 6.4in Super AMOLED display runs at up to 90Hz, MediaTek’s Helio G80 and 4GB of RAM speak more to a mid-range demographic and the camera arrangement (see inset) is better than expected. It helps that Samsung makes most of the bits it’s using here, as that keeps the price down.
