Finger Print for unlock is fine but in apps completely bugs. Apps are not properly recognised.

Useless phone

In the "verdict" section of this review, comparing the A42 to Xiaomi and Realme phones is not valid for U.S. users. The Chinese phones (with the exception of OnePlus) do not work well, or in some cases not at all on U.S. networks.

pekebo, 18 Apr 2021I am a newbie. I need someone's expert opinion. I just bought this phone - the configur... moreI notice the same thing. Not sure why there are two (apparently) different configurations of this phone. Just received the phone case with the dip below the lenses you were speaking of. Case fits perfectly. Unless your really not careful with your phones, don't think it will de a problem. It won't for me.

I like the F42 5g more. Love the integration of the mediatek chip and the huge battery section here.

Can you use a 25watts fast charger (Samsung brand) to Samsung Galaxy A42 5G? Will it be compatible and charge the phone faster even by default it only has 15watts fast charger support?

The gaming preformance on this Phone is Quite good, and battery, and camera but I Wish that the pixel density on the AMOLED screen was higher, but other than that a good midrange Phone from Samsung.
