Samsung has just announced the launch of its first 5G smartphone outside its flagship Galaxy S-series and Galaxy Note lineups. Called the Galaxy A90 5G, the device comes with high-end specs, but is expected to be priced relatively more affordably than the 5G variants of the company’s flagship phones. While it is already available for purchase in South Korea, there’s no word on when it might be launched globally.
The Galaxy A90 5G is available in South Korea from today, although the exact pricing is not yet clear, but South Korean news agency Yonhap claims the phone will be priced at KRW 900,000 (~Rs. 53,100). Samsung also hasn’t said anything about its global availability just yet, but given that 5G is still a work in progress in most regions around the world, expect this device to either be restricted to very few countries, or be released without 5G support in other markets, such as India.
