According to a report from etnews, a new addition to the Samsung Galaxy A series is on its way. The Samsung Galaxy A series of smartphones constitutes Samsung’s midrange offerings, and are about what you’d expect. An Exynos 7000 series (equivalent to the Snapdragon 600 series), a decent display, and an average camera. Now the next addition to the series has something different – triple cameras and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

Interestingly, the report also suggests that the Samsung Galaxy A successors will use a different type of in-display fingerprint sensor than the S10. The S10 is likely to use an ultrasound technology to implement it, while the A series will use optical. Optical measures the shading on your finger (or thumb) and how the light bends based on a light shot up when scanning. It’s likely that this technology may be slower but cheaper for the company to implement.
We’ve already seen that the Samsung Galaxy S10 is likely to have a triple camera variant, and the company isn’t against an in-display fingerprint scanner either. Huawei has implemented triple cameras to great effect, so it’s not quite a gimmick. It’s pretty cool though in that Samsung seems willing to bring some new – potentially flagship-level – features to their midrange devices. The Samsung Galaxy A series doesn’t have too many defining features and simply offers mid to high-end specifications with a more premium build quality.
