Samsung Galaxy A73 5G: Price, Specs & Availability
Samsung today unveiled a new model – the Galaxy A73 5G – with some very nice improvements. However, despite the launch of the Galaxy A33 5G and Galaxy A53 5G, there is not much fanfare about this device.
This may be due to the fact that the Galaxy A73 is not widely available at the 5G launch. It may eventually become accessible to the road. Markets across Europe are likely to gain some momentum.

Samsung is using the Snapdragon 778G chipset for the Galaxy A73 5G. It will be available with 6/8GB RAM and 128/256GB storage. There is a microSD card slot for external expansion up to 1TB. Headphone jack fans may not like the fact that it removes the 3.5mm jack.
The camera setup of the device has undergone a major change compared to its predecessor. In it, Samsung’s 108MP primary sensor is available, instead of the Galaxy A72’s 8MP 3x zoom sensor. Other sensors on the Galaxy A73 5G include 12MP ultra-wide, 5MP depth and 5MP macro. There is also a 32MP selfie camera.
