Samsung Galaxy A41

Samsung Galaxy A41

Samsung Galaxy A41 smartphone was announced on 18th March 2020. Its price in Kenya is 26,500 shillings. The phone comes with a 6.10-inch touchscreen display, an octa-core processor, 4GB RAM, and a 3500mAh non-removable battery. Samsung Galaxy A41 is powered by Android 10.0 and has a Mediatek MT6768 Helio P65 (12 nm) chipset.  It comes in three color options – Black, White, or Blue. Connectivity options on the Samsung Galaxy A41 include a 4G network, Wi-Fi 802.11, NFC, GPS, and USB Type-C.

Build and design

Samsung Galaxy A41 has an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance up to 1.5m for 30 minutes. This is by far the best comment anyone reviewing this phone must include. Very rarely do you find water resistance on mid-tier smartphones? How Samsung managed to make this phone with an IP68 rating yet it has a plastic build only points me to Galaxy S10 Lite.

Though A41 is cheaper than S10 Lite, it has water resistance but the latter does not. The frames here are also plastic and the phone comes with an Infinity-U screen. More on this later. On the back panel, you will see a camera module and Samsung branding. Samsung Galaxy A41 comes in three colors Black, White, and Blue. This phone has a 3.5mm jack.

What you see – Display

Of high resolution and clear display, Samsung Galaxy A41 has a part with its 6.1 inches, 89.8 cm2  display panel. Now, if you are a fan of big displays then by 2020 standards this is not the phone to go for. But if you care more about a great quality display then, by all means, feel free. I say this because 1080 x 2400 pixels resolution on a 6.1 inch is nothing short of immaculate. That is right! Viewing angles are astounding, colors punchy and the display razor-sharp.

Did you also know that it has a 431 PPI density? And, did you also know that it does support 16M colors and that being a Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, outdoor visibility is a walk in the part? Well, not you should know. The display of the Galaxy A41 is brilliant. Finally, the optical fingerprint reader is under this very display. It cannot get any better than this.

Triple camera and 25MP selfie

We love phones with high-resolution cameras and Samsung Galaxy A41 is one of those phones. Yes, there is no sight of a macro lens here we concede. But whoever uses that though? Instead, we see a 5 MP, f/2.4, the depth-sensing lens on the A41, an 8 MP ultra-wide lens, and a 48 MP main shooting lens. You will be glad to learn that 4K video recording is present here at 2160p@30fps. With Galaxy A41 you can also shoot videos in 1080p which is the same quality as that of its 25 MP front-facing camera.  Speaking of which, you will fall in love with the high-resolution selfies this selfie camera takes.

Platform

What comes to mind at the mention of the name platform? For us, it is words such as speed, performance, OS, RAM and so on. Samsung Galaxy A41 is powered by Android 10.0; One UI 2 straight off its box. It comes with a Mediatek MT6768 Helio P65 (12 nm) chipset and not Exynos or Snapdragon which is quite strange. Still within it is a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU and an Octa-core (2×2.0 GHz Cortex-A75 & 6×1.7 GHz Cortex-A55) CPU. Galaxy A41 has 64GB of expandable internal storage and 4GB RAM. Using a micro SDXC its internal storage can be expanded.

Battery

Sealed within is a non-removable Li-Po 3500 mAh battery that is charged with fast charging 15W. It is not the most generous of battery capacities but it surely does get the job done, and well. Overall the highlight of the Samsung Galaxy A41 is its vivid display, its 48MP high-resolution camera, and its 25MP selfie camera. Buy it with us today for the best price in the region.
