The Samsung A series is getting wider and can cause us some problems when choosing a new mobile. Two of the most desired phones of the moment are the renewed Samsung Galaxy A20e and the Samsung Galaxy A50 , two smartphones of unequal price with important differences also in its configuration.
Sometimes it costs more to decide on the mid-range meodelso than with the high-end models, so we want to help you decide on your purchase , knowing step by step each aspect of the Samsung Galaxy A20e before the Samung Galaxy A50 , a Mid-range with higher aspirations.
Design and screen
The first thing we look at is in its design, where in both models we find a fairly current look where the frames disappear but they are quite small. Its size is different, presenting a 5.8-inch panel on the Samsung Galaxy A20 before the 6.4 inches of the Samsung Galaxy A50 which in turn reaches 166 grams. The screen of both has a small central notch Infinity V and U.
The screen of the Galaxy A20e is lower level by offering us only an HD + resolution , given the FullHD + resolution of the Galaxy A50. The construction materials of both are identical, based purely on plastic.
Processor and very differentiated configuration
We enter the first aspect where we begin to see the great changes between one and the other, on the one hand the Galaxy A20e offers us the Exynos 7884 that offers us a clock frequency of 1.6 GHz, enough for tasks such as taking photos, answering messages, consulting Social networks and news. Meanwhile, the Galaxy A50 bets on the Exynos 9610 processor with a frequency of 2.3 GHz capable of doing the same as the previous one but also starting to offer us a faster gaming experience and improved response times.
The storage of the Galaxy A20e seems somewhat short to us with 32 GB of storage only combined with 3 GB of RAM. Your competitor increases the bet from 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, to a choice of 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. A positive point is that in both we will have the possibility of expanding the storage through MicroSD.
Dual camera before triple camera
The camera of the most modest Samsung Galaxy A20e is double with a main sensor of 13 Mpx and aperture f / 1.9 along with 5 Mpx for the wide angle. Opposite the Galaxy A50 has a triple camera, the main one of 25 Mpx with an aperture of f / 1.7 difficult to overcome in lighting, in addition to 5 Mpx for the wide angle and 8 Mpx to improve the portrait mode.
The front camera of the first one is only 8 Mpx, growing on the Galaxy A50 to 25 Mpx and giving added value to the selfies. Both have autofocus and HDR , but neither of them optical stabilizer.
Batteries and connectivity
The first of these, the Galaxy A20e has a 3,000 mAh battery that together with the resolution will be enough to end the day, also adding 15W fast charging. The Samsung Galaxy A50 has a battery larger than 4,000 mAh that also has a fast charging of 15W . They are very similar data given the difference in size and resolution.
The connectivity is necessary in both, finding us with audio jack and USB Type C in both proposals together with 4G connectivity and Bluetooth 5.0 . In the Galaxy A20e we have the fingerprint reader in the back, being very fast and in the Galaxy A50 under the screen.
Android with One UI
Their system is based on Android 9 and in the future they will receive Android 10 together with One UI 2.0. This system is identical in both and is characterized by offering us a simple, colorful experience with several customization options. It offers us an advanced experience to pure Android, where the performance is not inconvenient and only the opinion of the users comes into play.
Price and conclusions
We reach the final section where its price comes into play, on the one hand the Samsung Galaxy A20e is the cheapest option for 150 euros, compared to 270 euros in which we can find the version of the Galaxy A50 with 128 GB , because the 64 GB It’s been sold out for a long time. With a big price difference, is it advisable to save money? The truth is that yes, in our opinion the changes in the processor, storage and cameras are large enough to wait a little longer and be able to opt for the Samsung Galaxy A50.
