5G phones are the future of the industry, but at the moment they are not for all budgets. Only the mid-premium and high-end can enjoy the new high-speed network. It is not something that worries the bulk of users, given the limited supply in this regard and an infrastructure that must continue to grow. However, Samsung is already preparing its cheapest 5G mobile to date.
How could it be otherwise, Samsung was one of the first companies to join 5G. The first terminal of the Koreans compatible with this technology was the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, which was later followed by the Galaxy Note 10 series and the Galaxy S20. However, some mid-range phones such as the Galaxy A51 or Galaxy A71 have also flirted with 5G versions to bring the technology closer to more pockets.
5G reaches the entry level
Now it is the SamMobile medium, specialized in Samsung, he claims to have exclusive information about the Samsung Galaxy A42. The source claims that Samsung has begun development of this terminal, which belongs to the company’s lower price ranges, but will be compatible with 5G networks. That is, as detailed, in late 2020 or early 2021 we can have the Samsung Galaxy A42 5G in our hands, as the maximum exponent of the democratization of 5G in the company’s smartphones.
The information SamMobile has had access to reveals that the terminal will have the model number SM-A426B and that it will have 128 GB of internal storage, which doubles the 64 GB capacity of the current Galaxy A41. It is also detailed that it will be available in gray, white and black colors and that it could come with an LTE variant to maintain an even lower price for those users who cannot connect to a 5G network.
Only 5G mobiles?
Maintenance of 5G and LTE production series also comes at a cost to Samsung, which should also be removed. This will be possible in 2021, as the source claims that they will be during the next year, when only Galaxy 5G mobiles (also compatible with LTE) could be launched, eliminating all traces of mobiles only compatible with 4G networks. Meanwhile, we must still see more commercial offers of 5G, which, for example, in the case of our country, continue to be supported by Vodafone. Still, the advantages of One UI to change the style of calls in Samsung will remain.
