Samsung A42 Singapore Reviews
Samsung’s A lineups consist of phones that feature budget mid-range performances, the same goes for the Samsung A42.
The Samsung A42 weighs 193g which is heavier than most phones in the market. The back of the phone has a unique prism dot look with three different shades.
The back of the phone is made of plastic instead of glass which is a fingerprint magnet, hence slapping on a phone casing may be a good idea.
Samsung A42 also supports the use of a MicroSD card alongside the huge 128GB internal storage.
The screen on the Samsung A42 is a 720p display which is a downgrade from its predecessor but it is an affordable phone that supports 5G. Despite the downgrade, the screen has a nice brightness level and good colors, which is good enough for everyday use.
Samsung A42 has a 5000mAh battery which is a huge upgrade from the A41. The phone also comes with a 15W fast charging which will get the A42 from 0% to 100% within 2 hours. It is not a phone with super impressive fast charging but considering it having a huge battery capacity and a mid-ranger, it is not too bad!
The A42 uses the SnapDragon 750 5G which is good for gaming and performs the day-to-day task with no problem.
The camera has a quad-camera setup on its back. It is running a 48MP main shooter, an 8MP ultra-wide, a 5MP macro cam, and a 5MP depth sensor. On the other hand, the selfie camera is a 20MP snapper.
