Overview
Design
In the last few years, Samsung has followed their A series design on Its flagship S series. Samsung Galaxy A3 is no different. The front & back side will be glass, and the side frame will be Aluminium.
Display
A 6.6-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED+ panel will be used to display this mobile phone. This panel has a small punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera in the top center. This screen will support a 120Hz high refresh rate. In consuming HDR content, this panel will hit up to 2200 nits of peak brightness. Two thousand two hundred nits of peak brightness is huge. The panel will be bright up to 1300 nits, which is suitable for harsh outdoor sunlight. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ will protect this screen.
Camera
The Samsung Galaxy A38 will come with three rear cameras and one front camera. A 108MP rear primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 10MP telephoto camera, and a 32MP front camera. Nowadays, almost all youth love to take pictures in tight focal length portrait mode. A telephoto camera is very useful when clicking DSLR-like portrait photos. The 12MP telephoto camera will capture 50mm focal length. 50mm focal length is decent for portrait photography. But 70mm focal length is good for the portrait. The 108MP primary camera captures good pictures and videos in 4K 30/60fps and 1080p 30/60fps with gyro-EIS and OIS. The 12MP ultrawide camera can capture decent 123-degree wide photos and videos. The 32MP front camera can capture good pictures and videos at 4K 30/60fps, and 1080p 30/60fps.
Performance
Android 17 and One UI 9.0 will run on the operating system. This phone will find updates up to Android 21. 4 Years of Android update is very good. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 will be used as the chipset. It is an Octa-core chip based on 4-nanometer fabrication. The eight cores are divided into 1-core 2.63GHz cortex A715, 3-core 2.4GHz cortex A715, and 4-core 1.8GHz cortex A510. The Adreno 720 will be used as the GPU for this chip. It is a good chip. This chip can hit more than 8 Laks Antutu scores, which is a good Antutu score.
Sound System
It will have stereo speakers as loudspeakers, but there is no 3.5mm headphone jack. The stereo speakers’ sound is good.
