DESIGN

Samsung Galaxy A32 4G variant is available in four distinct color options in India namely Awesome Violet, Awesome Blue, Awesome White, Awesome Black. The smartphone has quite an old-fashioned design of water-drop notch if compare to smartphones such as Realme Narzo 30Pro & other smartphones in this budget segment as they are having a punch-hole type design.

The back design is made up of glass and comes with Gorilla Glass 5 protection. There is no specific square shape or rectangular shape design for the camera and they are placed separately on the back body of the phone. It has a very ideal dimension that can fit very easily in normal hands. Also, the phone doesn’t seem to be very heavy with ideal weight distribution.

DISPLAY

Samsung has provided its Galaxy A32 4G variant with a Super AMOLED display whereas the 5G variant of the phone has an IPS LCD display. It is quite a big improvement we can see in the 4G variant of the phone. Samsung doesn’t focus much on the refresh rate of the phone except the flagship series of the smartphone but again in Galaxy A32 4G variant an improvement is seen in the refresh rate as the 5G version only had a 60Hz of refresh rate whereas the Galaxy A32 4G supports 90Hz of refresh rate.

The side bezels of the phone are considerably thin with having a slightly thick chin at the bottom. Due to the presence of an AMOLED display the outdoor visibility of the Samsung Galaxy A32 4G is going to be great. The multimedia experience in this phone is going to be excellent for sure.

SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE

Samsung Galaxy A32 4G variant is integrated with MediaTek Helio G80 SoC processor which has become too old now and is mostly seen in the smartphone ranging between 10-15k rupees. It is a little exasperating to know that the phone is available in only 6GB RAM and 128GB ROM variant but thankfully the storage can be expanded upto 1TB via MicroSD card slot.

As per the processor, I would not really say that the phone can handle high-end games with great ease but games like Pubg or Fortnite can be played from low to medium-level settings. Moto G 5G and Realme X7 Pro provided a far better processor than this smartphone.
