The company Samsung has finally presented the model Galaxy A27 5G. This phone brings moderate changes compared to its predecessor Galaxy A26. The changes are mostly of an aesthetic nature, but inside there is a chipset that provides slightly better performance.
The front of the new model is technically identical to the screen of the previous version. A Super AMOLED panel is built in. The screen has a diagonal of 6.7 inches and a refresh rate of 120 Hz.
The main aesthetic difference is in the way the front camera is integrated. The teardrop neckline has finally been removed. It was replaced by a cleaner circular opening, the so-called punch hole, but Samsung calls this design Infinity-O display. The bezels around the screen are also thinner compared to the previous model.
Another significant change relates to the choice of chipset. The phone is powered by a 4-nanometer Snapdragon 6 Gen 3. It brings a speedup of 10-20% compared to 5-nanometer Exynos 1380 from the Galaxy A26 model. The company states that the device will therefore respond faster during daily work.
