The camera is best in bright sunny conditions, colours are awesome and in cloudy or low-light conditions, it’s not up to the mark. You will find zoom shots to be a specific weakness. Rest of the things i.e. display colours, battery, multitasking, and gaming are fine.

Specifications:
Design:
The handset feels polished when holding in a hand as Samsung has done something very interesting on the back of the phone. Throughout the rear plastic shell, there is a reflective coating that strews the lights – making for some appealing hues. With 3.5mm headphone jack, the smartphone is sleek at 7.7mm. The power and volume rockers are holding their position on the right-hand side of the handset whereas a speaker grille can be found on the bottom. Three cameras are placed vertically on the top left corner of the phone alongside an LED flash and Samsung’s Logo combined with the deep nature of the back panel making it eye-catching. It’s a solid smartphone with 166 grams weight and 158.5 x 74.7 x 7.7 mm dimensions.
Display:
The gigantic 6.4-inches Super AMOLED display with a maximum resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels at 403 PPI density, looks biggest and gorgeous. It comes with U-shaped notch on the front which holds a front-facing camera and allows approx. 91.6% screen-to-body ratio. The display is covered by an extra layer of Gorilla Glass 3 to keep it safe from scuff marks and scratches. The colours are punchy and vibrant with excellent contrast and saturation – thanks to its Super AMOLED display. Considering its affordable price, Samsung brings its Galaxy A50 in a new AMOLED flavour to a budget segment.
Camera:
As mentioned above, Samsung Galaxy A50 comprises a triple camera setup on its back – consist of the 25MP main camera, 5MP depth-sensing camera and an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera with 123-degree field of view. The front-facing camera, however, is 25MP. For social media junkies, Samsung’s triple-camera is more than enough as long as there is enough light. Very much like mid-range smartphones, low-light images quality isn’t up to the mark and in standard and wide-angle modes, images have a significant amount of noise. The 25MP front camera captures colourful and bright selfies. However, it doesn’t capture as detailed images as Redmi Note 7 Pro but it’s a versatile performer that can capture good enough images.
Performance and OS:
The Samsung Galaxy A50 is backed by in-house Exynos 9610 Chipset which ensures smooth and silky day-to-day usability. The Chipset is partnered with 4GB/6GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB of onboard memory that can be taken to the next level (up to 1TB). And to manage a graphical department, it’s equipped with Mali-G72 MP3 GPU. According to some online sources, Galaxy A50, in terms of performance, maintains a steady frame rate in PUBG Mobile without a hiccup or glitch. However, it gets a little warm with extended gaming. But all in all, it offers up to snuff performance whether you work on multiple apps simultaneously or play games.
Battery:
Last but absolutely not the least, Samsung Galaxy A50 comes with a 4000mAh non-removable battery which is, unfortunately, a step down from a whopping 5000mAh battery in Samsung Galaxy M30. Aside from that, it can easily last a whole day under a heavy usage even with a decent amount of juice in the tank. In a regular use which comprises of social media, browsing, playing games, watching videos on YouTube, it’ll consume only 12% battery in an hour – maybe more sometimes.
