    they never will using a chipset for first time like old days. even Exynos 980 for first time used by Vivo X30
    or samsung 108Mp for first time used by Xiaomi.
    after couple months they will start using their own product.
    for example Vivo start using Exynos 980 in december in vivo x30...then vivo used it in Vivo s6 in April...then in June, samsung used Exynos 980 in A71 5G.
    takes 6months after Vivo.
    Probably this new chipset it's Exynos 880
    bcuz its time to using it in samsung
    Vivo Y70s used 880 chipset in 1june & Vivo Y51s start using it in 29july.
    so Yeah its time for samsung to use their own product. Exynos 880

How come you don't have a choice for compact phones?! More important than screen size is the dimensions: width and height of the device...Everything under 155mm height and 72 width is perfectly manageble with one handed use...Also most people prefer 6.1-6.7 screens nowadays because they feel is more productive and they get more for they money the spend which is fucking true.. I will never go back to a screen smaller than mine now 6.39''....

              A40 series is not available in some regions which is a bad omission.

                    What SoC will it use? I think SD690 and those complaining about bigger size is probably because of 5G

                          Hardware Hypervisor, 02 Sep 2020Nothing interesting about A40 series except its small form factor. Now that is also gone. Pass.True. The best thing about A40 and A41 was small form factor.

                            Love how 5G became really affordable, but screen size is overkill, 6inch is okay but 6.6 isn’t compact at all

                                Since the placement of the camera and the flash is becoming weird. Four camera equals four flashes not one. If any company would like a weird idea try this one next to each camera please add a flash. Seriously Samsung please fire all your people in the designing department. Awful design equal awful sales. Good luck with the sale of this device.

                                        My work phone, with unlimited data and phone calls, is a A50. I would never buy it but it serves well. I have it since Feb 2020... it seems next Feb we will have the A56... lol
