Samsung's 2021 A-series line
According to Strategy Analytics, the Samsung Galaxy A51 was the best-selling smartphone during the first half of 2020. As such, the South Korean firm aims to continue that success by focusing on the core values of the A series which are the camera, battery, display, and price.
At the March 2021 unpacked event, Samsung revealed the new members of the A-series that include the A32, A52, A52 5G, and A72. Samsung has dramatically changed the aesthetics of the A-series by going the minimal route with a sleeker camera housing and with the new matte haze finish.
