Samsung Malaysia has just launched the Galaxy A42 5G and this is its first Galaxy A phone with 5G for our local market. As well as supporting next-gen high-speed connectivity, the device is powered by a Snapdragon processor and has a larger battery than the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
Prices
The Samsung Galaxy A42 5G is now available from the official Samsung store at Shopee and is sold for RM 1,599 in Malaysia. It is available in two colors: Prism Dot Gray and Prism Dot Black. According to its SIRIM list, the device supports 5G 700MHz and 3500MHz bands in Malaysia and also comes with NFC.
Hardware specs
The Galaxy A42 features a 6.6 ″ Super AMOLED display which, unfortunately, pushes a lower HD + resolution of 1600 × 720 pixels. It’s a shame considering the lower spec Galaxy A31 comes with a higher Full HD + resolution display.
Under the hood, it runs on an 8nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G chipset. For Malaysia, the device is configured with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage that can be expanded via microSD up to an extra 1TB.
In the camera department, the A42 5G has a four camera setup that sits on a square camera top. It consists of a 48MP f / 1.8 main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle shooter, a 5MP depth camera, and a 5MP macro shooter. For selfies, the device has a 20MP f / 2.2 front shooter that sits in a small notch.
Keeping the lights on is a 5,000mAh battery that supports 15W adaptive fast charging via USB-C. A 3.5mm headphone jack is also retained and has an in-display fingerprint sensor. For more information, you can refer to the Galaxy A42 5G product page on the Samsung Malaysia website.
