Samsung has announced the new Galaxy A42 5G that is the first among the Galaxy A series smartphones. With 4 rear-facing cameras, a big battery, and a great screen to go with the more power-efficient SoC, this device is going to be quite a competitive device that is 5G-ready (but we don’t have mainstream 5G yet so yeah).

Pricing and Availability
The Samsung Galaxy A42 5G will become available for purchase starting November 27 at RM1599 on participating Samsung Experience Stores, authorized dealer, and e-stores. For a 5G device to be priced at the mid RM1k range, it could be good enough for futureproofing but if you need something more powerful right now without caring about 5G, there are plenty of options for you to choose from as well.
May I suggest the Samsung Galaxy A51 if you’re not looking for a 5G phone?
