Keeping pace with Chinese and Taiwanese Andriod phone makers, Samsung has been launching new products in different price ranges for a long time. For qualitative analyses, Samsung is the only smartphone maker which has consistently competed with Apple’s iPhone and has sometimes been rated higher than the American company’s iconic product.
Samsung says that this will be its first phone with 5G connectivity in the A-Series. Says a Samsung India official: “Galaxy A22 5G has been designed keeping in mind evolving consumer needs and comes with segment-leading features like smooth 90Hz display, versatile camera and a fast and efficient processor. It is a perfect choice for customers who want their device to be future-ready with its 11 bands’ support and promise of two year OS upgrades.”The two-year OS upgrade ensures the life of the phone to at least that many years.
