it's better than paying more for something that's worth less
Coolnicky, 25 Dec 2020Well my Samsung has zero ads while Xiaomi pushes a lot of ads on their phones."a lot" is an exaggeration, the only time where you get ads is when you use miui apps (Themes for example).

It's a shame that Samsung has decided to get rid of the compactness of the previous A4* models including the downgrade to a 720p display. Great looking plastic back though!!
Anonymous, 23 Dec 2020Xiaomi made it so cheap because of the explicit and 18+ ads in MIUI.that may just be your ad personalisation at work because i haven't encountered a single inappropriate ad on my both my note 8 pro and 9c : P
720p display in this price, literally? I would rather go pro realme 7 pro (4G) or redmi note 9 pro 5G

Too big screen !!! ,very uncomfortable on hands, a40, a41 models were compact size
A42 : 720p but Super Amoled.
A32: 1080p but no Super Amoled.
A30, A31, A40 and A41: 1080p with Super Amoled.
Samsung is really messing and dumping their A series phones next year.
samsung phones are overpriced anyway. i don't see why anyone who's well versed in tech would waste their money on a brand new samsung phone. the mi 10 lite 5G costs the same, has much better specifications and a 1080p display at that.

AnonD-821125, 19 Dec 2020lower resolution= more breathing room for cpu= better performanceIt's a samsung midranger! They are meant for media! This is blasphemy to the a40. Especially being 300 bloody euro.
Make a new line of phones for this, dont call it the a series
The a40 line was about the compact
Why they changed resolution and format is a mystery to me
chantoine, 20 Dec 2020can't really see the screen quality difference with my Galaxy note 9 (standard setting), ... morewhy would you go from note 9 to this!!!!
