RefurbStore's independent expert review
Review Overview:
The Samsung Galaxy A50 is an entry-level smartphone that offers decent performance for its price range. It's packed with features that can satisfy the needs of casual users who prioritize multimedia consumption, photography, and day-to-day tasks.
Overall Score: 3.7/5
Price: 4/5
The Galaxy A50 is quite competitively priced for a smartphone that offers a Super AMOLED screen, a decent processor, and multiple cameras. It is an excellent choice for those who want to experience Samsung's quality without breaking the bank.
Camera: 3.5/5
The Galaxy A50 features a triple camera setup - a 25MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 5MP depth sensor. It takes decent photos in well-lit conditions, but struggles a bit in low light. The ultra-wide lens is a nice touch, but the image quality is noticeably lower than the main sensor. The selfie camera is quite satisfactory at 25MP.
Power: 3/5
The Galaxy A50 is powered by Samsung's Exynos 9610, which is sufficient for casual use, light gaming, and daily tasks. However, it may not meet the expectations of power users who require high-level performance for intense gaming or heavy multitasking.
Battery: 4.5/5
One of the strong points of the Galaxy A50 is its battery life. With a 4000mAh battery, it can easily last a full day with moderate to heavy usage. The 15W fast charging is a nice addition, though not the fastest available in the market.
