‘These are all specifications of the Samsung Galaxy A72’
Few details of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy A series are spared. Even before the devices were launched, the design of the Galaxy A52 and A72 leaked. There was still some discussion about the specifications of the A72, but rumor maker Roland Quandt puts an end to this uncertainty.
Samsung Galaxy A72
Samsung has kicked off the year smoothly with the launch of the Galaxy S21 series. Not much later, the first Galaxy A-series device appeared, the Galaxy A32 5G. There was no question of a launch of the more expensive Galaxy A devices, but the launch seems to be getting closer. Images and specifications of the Galaxy A52 and Galaxy A72 appeared via Voice. This time, the Samsung Galaxy A72 is in the spotlight and the specifications of this device have appeared.
Samsung’s Galaxy A72 contains, according to rumor Roland Quandt, who often knows how to leak correct information about upcoming phones, a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with a Full HD + resolution (2,400 x 1,080 pixels) and a 90 Hz refresh rate. In the screen on the front of the phone we find a hole-punch notch, containing the 32 MP selfie camera; the fingerprint scanner of the A72 is also incorporated in the screen.
Extensive camera offer
Inside the phone we find a Snapdragon 720G chipset from Qualcomm, combined with 6 GB or 8 GB RAM and 128 GB or 256 GB storage memory respectively. In addition, a 5,000 mAh battery can be found internally. It is not known how fast the battery can be charged. Furthermore, we find four camera sensors on the back, starting with a 64 MP main camera, supplemented with a 12 MP wide-angle camera, an 8 MP telephoto sensor and finally a 2 MP sensor for macro photography.
What is striking is that the Samsung Galaxy A72 has been given an IP67 rating and should therefore be able to withstand water and dust, although the protection will be slightly less compared to phones that have been tested for IP68 – such as the Galaxy S21. Furthermore, the housing of this phone is made of plastic and there is a headphone jack and microSD card slot. Thus, the phone’s storage memory can be expanded.
Only a 4G variant
Roland Quandt does not mention the launch date of the Samsung Galaxy A72 in his rumors, but has been informed about the prices and says that the suggested retail price will be 449 euros. For this you are expected to get the model with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage memory. 5G will not be included in this package: there will be no 5G version of the A72, Quandt expects. This has to do with the chosen chipset, which does not support 5G networks.
That Samsung will not provide its higher positioned Galaxy A devices with 5G is to say the least striking, given that the lower positioned Galaxy A32 5G and Galaxy A42 5G are equipped with 5G chipsets. What do you think about Samsung launching the Galaxy A72 without 5G? Let us know in the comments at the bottom of the article.
