One of the main selling points for Galaxy A40 was its somewhat compact size... Now they've ruined the compact size AND even reduced the resolution from 1080p to 720p, so it's just awful all around.

Go home Samsung, you're drunk.

720p? A31 has a FullHD+ resolution. Where is the logic? Redmi 9 still KING.

A4x series was supposed to be compact. Imma just have to buy an iphone 12 mini at this point. Its exactly the size and weight I need but I just didn;t wanna buy Apple.

Ytsoc, 21 Dec 2020Wasn't the A4x series supose to be the ine with a small form.factor? Samsung seems to be... morethe a40 had 5.9 full HD display, a42 6.1 full HD display. it is the main differentiator from the other mid range A phones (between the A71-A21s)

Wasn't the A4x series supose to be the ine with a small form.factor? Samsung seems to be so stupid, they have like a million of models but somehow they don't make a decent compact phone. I hope now that apple made the iphone mini the rest of the stupid companies will copy them like they fid when apple made anti consumer decisions

IcyJay30, 21 Dec 2020720p display on this big screen... ppi is perfect for polygon games :P..... so many compromis... moresuch a weird choice to give it a low res display, I guess to make it affordable they really had to cut corners!!!, the design of the back is really nice though (in my opinion)

Everything about the phone looks worth buying, except for that horrible 4 tone back. It's horrible.

How shameful Samsung has even become
Like their devices were meh at best before
Now they're becoming worse
Like they can't see the competition and the devices released?
What is this? A 6.6 720p display and a high price for what? Never mind the cheap plastic they insist on using and the useless cameras they put

"it is the quality of the photos that matter, not the looks of the camera island."

If this were true, there would not be entire teams doing design and public opinion polls. When a woman buys a phone, how important do you think appearance is? The most important.
