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, and good 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 a capable smartphone from the company. Unfortunately, the pricing is still not competitive enough to sway gamers away from the Snapdragon 845-toting Poco F1. Moreover, the recently launched Redmi Note 7 Pro could give the A50 a run for its money too as it features a slightly more powerful CPU, comes with Sony`s 48MP imaging sensor and costs much less.However, for all the Samsung loyalists, the Galaxy A50 is a stellar buy, and if this is a sign of things to come, I can`t wait for the more offerings from the South Korean giant in the affordable and mid-budget segments.
