![Prateek Pandey]()
Verdict
In my books, the Galaxy A50 is Samsung s best attempt yet to fend off the Chinese competition. The smartphone offers a gorgeous design, a stunning display, long-lasting battery life, excellent cameras, andgood performance, all while being priced quite competitively. The handset starts at Rs 19,990, which honestly, is a really good price from Samsung. In fact, after a long time, I don t feel that buyers have to pay a premium to get acapable smartphone from the company.Unfortunately, the pricing is still not competitive enough to sway gamers away from the Snapdragon 845-toting Poco F1.

Samsung has a penchant for designing good-looking smartphones, but it refrained from bringing that to the affordable segment. The Galaxy A50 turns that notion on its head. The device comes clad in a polycarbonate shell, but I'm willing to bet that the smartphone's glossy finish will fool you into thinking that it's made of glass. The device looks straight out of a chic boutique store and it comes in numerous peppy hues. However, buyers residing in India will be limited to Black, Blue and White colourways of the device. That's a bit of a bummer, as the bright orange variant of the smartphone I checked out at MWC Barcelona looked other-worldly.That said, the all-black paint job on my review unit looks dazzling too, especially when rays of light strike its back to show off an iridescent glow. Samsung has even paid heed to the little things, such as keeping the camera bump to the minimum, thereby ensuring you can use the device even when it's put flat on a table. What's more, the physical buttons are adequately tactile, and there's even an in-display fingerprint sensor on the device — making it one of the most affordable smartphones to boast an invisible fingerprint reader. Now, granted, it's not the quickest in the market, but the scanner has been positioned within thumb's reach under the display and was reliable enough during my testing too.You'll also get a 3.5mm headphone socket with the device, which is always a welcome sight along with a USB Type-C port for charging, bringing up Samsung's affordable handset up to the speed with the competition.The Samsung Galaxy A50 offers a remarkable in-hand grip too. The device nestles comfortably in the palms owing to its tapered back which blends seamlessly into the edges. The corners have been rounded off as well, which coupled with the smartphone's sleek girth ensure that you won't feel the device pressing against your thighs when it's inside the pocket of your jeans. And, thanks in no small part to its sleek bezels, the 6.4-inch display on the Galaxy A50 can be operated with just one hand quite comfortably.The design of the smartphone is not without its flaws though. The back panel of the device is a fingerprint magnet and the smartphone doesn't feel as premium in the hand like a proper glass-back phone either. But, on the whole, the smartphone's design is up there with the most stylish offerings in this segment.As I mentioned previously, the Galaxy A50 ships with a 6.4-inch AMOLED display, which bears an FHD+ resolution. Unsurprisingly, consuming content on the device is a visual treat, especially since the panel features a tiny Infinity-U notch which isn't as intrusive as a traditional camera cut-out. What's more, Samsung has added a bunch of cool animations to highlight the smartphone's U-shaped notch too and there's a transition effect when you unlock the phone using facial recognition or switch to the selfie camera in the camera app. The panel has excellent viewing angles too and it gets reasonably bright as well. All in all, the display on the Galaxy A50 is among the best in its class and I expected no less from Samsung.

Performance and software

The Samsung Galaxy A50 is backed by the company's in-house Exynos 9610 octa-core processor which in the case of my review unit, worked alongside 4GB of RAM and 64GB of user-expandable storage. However, buyers looking for a bit more grunt can opt for a 6GB RAM variant of the device too.Now, the Exynos 9610 utilises ARM's older Cortex-A73 performance cores which work in conjunction with battery-efficient Cortex A53 cores. Consequently, you should expect better performance from a smartphone which is backed by newer Cortex-A75 or A76 performance cores, such as the recently launched Redmi Note 7 Pro. With that out of the way, I can confirm that the performance of the A50 isn't all that bad either.Apps opened swiftly on the device and for the most part, multitasking was buttery smooth too. The smartphone did struggle to render animations cleanly when I was juggling between resource hungry applications like Twitter and Chrome, but that can be boiled down to the 4GB RAM model I was using. In the gaming department, the handset breezed through casual titles like Clash Royale and Alto's Adventure, however, I had to tone down the graphics setting in demanding games like PUBG. Even then, there were some significant frame drops during intense battles, which made me lose a lot more than I otherwise would. Therefore, if you're a hard-core gamer, then the similarly priced POCO F1 (review) is where your money should be at.As for the battery life, the Samsung Galaxy A50 ships with a 4,000mAh cell which managed to last me a full day on heavy usage. To give you a better picture, my usage involved juggling between various social media apps like Fenix, WhatsApp and Instagram, playing a Classic game of PUBG Mobile and listening to songs on Apple Music. By the time I hit the bed, the device had clocked in over four hours of screen on time, which is quite an impressive number. Samsung has really upped the ante in the software department and the Galaxy A50 boots the company's One UI on top of Android Pie. I've always disliked the company's custom skin, but the brand's all-new One UI comes across as a breath of fresh air. The skin is quite minimalistic and comes bundled with practical features like an all-dark mode, a device manager and navigational gestures. What's more, the company has deployed some clever animations to better the UI experience. For instance, swiping down on the home-screen brings down the notification tray, but the kicker is that when you swipe down on the display again, the icons at the top are lowered further, making them more accessible to someone with tiny hands. Everything considered, it was about time Samsung improved its software and with One UI, the company has genuinely outdone itself.

Samsung is no stranger to furnishing its devices with multiple cameras and the Galaxy A50 too features a triple-camera array towards the back comprising a 25MP f/1.7 standard shooter, an 8MP wide-angle lens with a 123-degree of field of view and a 5MP depth sensor. For selfies, the smartphone comes with a 25MP f/2.0 sensor.Clearly, Samsung is going all out in the photography department and it shows. The handset managed to click some incredible shots and barring a handful of issues, I don't have any complaints with the A50's cameras. I'll sum up my experience with the smartphone in the form of bullet points, so here we go:
