Samsung Galaxy A10, Galaxy A30 and Galaxy A50 launched in India with Android Pie-based One UI: Specs, features and everything to know

Samsung is seemingly in no mood to settle down. A day after launching the Galaxy M30, Samsung has launched a slew of affordable Galaxy A phones in India - the same day that Xiaomi is launching its 48MP-toting Redmi Note 7 Pro and Redmi Note 7 in the country. Samsung has launched as many as three new Galaxy A phones in India in one go - the entry-level Galaxy A10, and the mid-tier Galaxy A30 and Galaxy A50. While the Galaxy A30 and Galaxy A50 were recently announced at MWC 2019, the Galaxy A10 is making its global debut in India. Prices start at Rs 8,490 for the Galaxy A10, going all the way to Rs 22,990 for the Galaxy A50 – which brings many industry firsts to its price segment. All the three phones have an Infinity notch design and run Android 9 Pie-based One UI – the same software that powers Samsung’s more premium Galaxy S and Galaxy Note phones. The Galaxy A10, Galaxy A30 and Galaxy A50 bring Samsung’s One UI to the masses – with features like a system-wide dark mode and an emphasis on faster and seamless use on large-screen devices being its main highlight. Samsung is using a new 3D ‘glasstic’ design in its new Galaxy A-series phones which seems to be its take on the gradient design scheme seen in competing products from Huawei and others – all the phones are essentially made of plastic with glossy finish in layman terms though. There’s also Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection on the front. The Galaxy A50 is the most premium of the lot, with a 6.4-inch 1080p+ Super AMOLED display and a 2.3Ghz octa-coreExynos 9610 processor with up to 6GB RAM and up to 64GB storage which is expandable.
