A Super AMOLED panel at this price point is worth noting on its own. The Galaxy A30 packs a 6.4-inch display with 1080 x 2340 resolution and a near 85% screen-to-body ratio, so colours and contrast hold up better than most phones in its class. Powering it is an Exynos 7904 chipset paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, expandable further via a dedicated microSD slot up to 1TB. It's not a performance phone, but it handles everyday apps and Android 9.0 Pie without much fuss.
On the back you get a 16MP main sensor with an f/1.7 aperture alongside a 5MP ultrawide, giving a bit more flexibility than a single-camera setup. The front camera also comes in at 16MP for selfies and video calls. A 4000 mAh battery with 15W fast charging should get most users through a full day, and there's a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor for quick unlocking. Samsung Galaxy A30 price in Malaysia starts from RM599, and it comes in Black, Blue, or Red.
