Samsung’s A20 has proved to be popular in the market and the Korean company has followed that success up with the Samsung Galaxy A20s. Like its predecesor, this is a budget/mid-range Android phone, but with a few improved specs.
Samsung fans in Nigeria will be happy to see that fast charging is still in the picture and the rear camera now has 3 sensors instead of the two on the A20. The processor has been changed to a Qualcomm unit, which is good. However, it will be a dampener to some that the display is no longer Super AMOLED. But it isn’t a poor display still.

Like its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy A20s 2019 is a droid that has solid build quality, adequate RAM for a smooth user experience, a fingerprint reader, a big battery, and fast charging. And now with an improved camera, a good phone has gotten better.
Samsung lovers will snap it up without looking elsewhere. But if you are looking for the best bang for buck, you will find phones that offer similar performance for less in the market. If you are on a tight budget, you should explore competing smartphones like TECNO Camon 12, vivo Y12, Huawei Y7 Prime 2019, and TECNO Pouvoir 3 Plus, among others. If you want a stock Android experience and fast Android version updates, you should look at one of the 2019 phone models from Nokia.
Still, if you are hunting for a decent mid-range smartphone that gets the job done without lots of bells and whistles, the Galaxy A20s is one and worthy of your attention.
