Your Galaxy A7x phone was an ‘experiment thing’ for Samsung?

Samsung reportedly killed yet another smartphone which could be named Galaxy A74 5G because…? There’s not just a single reason for strategy changes, the decision seems pre-decided as Samsung always neglected Galaxy A7x smartphones as compared to the Galaxy A5x.

No doubt, the Galaxy A7x lineup of smartphones is more premium than the Galaxy A5x, but still, it got neglected by Samsung, and no one knows why. The company offers monthly security updates to the Galaxy A5x phones, but the Galaxy A7x are listed in the quarterly schedule, looks funny!

The Galaxy A7x became an “experiment smartphone lineup” for Samsung, for instance, Galaxy A72 was the first mid-ranger to use Telephoto lens, and the Galaxy A73 was the first to get a 108MP camera sensor. Introduced with A72, the telephoto sensor didn’t continue with its sequel.

Not that all, the Korean tech giant brought LTE, 5G and “s” variants of the Galaxy A52 smartphone, but the Galaxy A72 was not even featured 5G connectivity. Due to network compatibility, the Galaxy A72 utilized a downgraded processor compared to its younger sibling, and eventually, the A7x is dead.

The death of the Galaxy A7x seems pre-planned as Samsung started to streamline the Galaxy A5x phones. Let’s have a quick comparison of key specs:

The former features a 6.5″ Super AMOLED panel, and the latter features a 6.7″ Super AMOLED Plus screen. Other specs remain the same; 120Hz refresh rate, 800 nits brightness, and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Camera

In the Camera department, the Galaxy A73 faced radical changes including the arrival of 108MP main camera and the comeback of the depth sensor by ditching telephoto. The Galaxy A53 camera specs are quite similar to its predecessor, check camera specs of both phones below.

Experiment failed, device dead

And finally, it looks like Samsung has done with its experiment on the Galaxy A7x series and found it unnecessary. The Galaxy S22 FE is reportedly dead, but rumors claimed that it’s still alive and coming at the Unpacked part 2 in the place of the Galaxy A74 smartphone.
