Review of Samsung Galaxy A30

Samsung has completely rethought its approach to the market and so in 2019 introduced the A-series, which is noticeably different from the previous models with this index. Now after the letter follow two digits. The main changes, of course, are not in the name. The manufacturer has made efforts to offer devices that are the epitome of the optimal price/quality ratio for each price segment. A definite winner is the variety of colour solutions. Versions with different memory are now also available. It's another thing to come out of your lethargic slumber and realise that the competition has gained momentum and strength.
