  • Samsung Galaxy A15 5G

    The Galaxy A15 5G arrived in India in December 2023 at Rs 19,499 for 8 GB/128 GB. Its biggest step up over the A14 5G was the screen, moving to a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED at 90Hz, and Samsung also promised four generations of Android updates and five years of security patches, unusual at this price.

    Samsung's new design language with a flat frame and a raised Key Island on the side for the power and volume keys makes it look closer to the pricier A series. The MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chip is efficient but modest, handling everyday use and light gaming without fuss. The AMOLED panel has deep blacks and good outdoor visibility compared with LCD rivals.

    Cameras include a 50 MP main with a 5 MP ultrawide and 2 MP macro, a useful upgrade from the A14's depth sensor. The 5000 mAh battery delivers long endurance, and 25W charging is faster though still not quick by Indian market standards, where the Redmi Note 13 5G and Realme 11x offered more speed. The update policy remains its strongest argument.

  • Samsung Galaxy A16 5G

    Samsung launched the Galaxy A16 5G in India in October 2024 at Rs 18,999 for 8 GB/128 GB. Its headline was software: six generations of Android upgrades and six years of security updates, a promise previously seen only on flagships. It is aimed at buyers who keep a phone for many years and value support over specifications.

    The screen grows to 6.7 inches with a 90Hz Super AMOLED panel at full HD+, good for video and reading. Samsung added IP54 splash resistance, uncommon at this price, but dropped the 3.5 mm headphone jack. Performance in India comes from the Exynos 1330, which is efficient for daily tasks but clearly slower than the Snapdragon and Dimensity chips in rivals like the Redmi Note 14 or Moto G85.

    The camera setup is a 50 MP main, 5 MP ultrawide and 2 MP macro, with a 13 MP selfie camera. Results are decent in daylight and average indoors. A 5000 mAh battery with 25W charging gives long endurance but slow refills. The phone is thin at about 7.9 mm and feels more premium than earlier entry-level Galaxies.

  • Samsung Galaxy A25 5G

    Samsung launched the Galaxy A25 5G in India in December 2023 at Rs 26,999 for 8 GB/128 GB, alongside the A15 5G. It positions itself as a step up with a smoother 120Hz screen, optical image stabilisation and Samsung's older but proven Exynos 1280 chip, the same family that powered the Galaxy A53 and M34.

    The 6.5-inch Super AMOLED runs at 120Hz with full HD+ resolution, giving smooth scrolling and good contrast. The design matches the A15 with a Key Island on the frame and a plastic body. Exynos 1280 handles multitasking and casual gaming acceptably, but it was already aging next to the Snapdragon 7 series chips in rivals like the Redmi Note 13 Pro and Poco X6.

    The 50 MP main camera has OIS, which helps low-light photos and video stability, paired with 8 MP ultrawide and 2 MP macro sensors. The 5000 mAh battery and 25W charging give long life with average refill times. Its price was its biggest problem at launch, as the Galaxy M34 and later Galaxy F-series offered similar hardware for less.

  • Samsung Galaxy A34 5G

    Samsung introduced the Galaxy A34 5G in India in March 2023 at Rs 30,999 for 8 GB/128 GB, launched alongside the A54. Interestingly, it used MediaTek's Dimensity 1080 instead of an Exynos chip, which turned out to be a strong match for everyday performance and gaming at this price. That combination made it a dependable everyday pick.

    Its 6.6-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and waterdrop notch is bright and vivid, with stereo speakers adding to the media experience. The plastic back has a glossy prism-like finish, and IP67 water and dust resistance is a real advantage in Indian monsoons, something many competitors such as the Redmi Note 12 Pro did not offer at the same level.

    The 48 MP main camera has OIS and is joined by an 8 MP ultrawide and 5 MP macro. Images are natural with Samsung's typical bright processing. A 5000 mAh battery gives very good endurance, though 25W charging is slow. With four OS upgrades promised, it became a sensible middle ground for buyers who did not want to pay for the A54.

  • Samsung Galaxy A35 5G

    The Galaxy A35 5G launched in India in March 2024 at Rs 30,999 for 8 GB/128 GB. Samsung gave it the Exynos 1380 from the previous year's A54, along with a glass back and the Key Island frame design. It effectively offered last year's A54 internals in a fresher body at a lower price.

    The 6.6-inch Super AMOLED panel now has a punch-hole cutout instead of a notch, with 120Hz refresh and good brightness. Gorilla Glass Victus+ front and back give it a premium feel, though the frame is plastic and the phone is fairly heavy at 209 g. Exynos 1380 is smooth for daily tasks and moderate gaming, but rivals like the Nothing Phone (2a) and Poco X6 Pro were faster.

    Cameras are a 50 MP main with OIS, 8 MP ultrawide and 5 MP macro, producing reliable, slightly bright results. The 5000 mAh battery lasts well, while 25W charging remains sluggish. IP67, stereo speakers, Samsung Knox security and four years of OS upgrades round out a package aimed at buyers who value build and support over benchmarks.

  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra

    The Galaxy S25 Ultra went on sale in India in early 2025 after a January launch, priced at Rs 1,29,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. It kept the Ultra recipe of a built-in S Pen, titanium frame and four rear cameras, but softened the design with rounded corners and a slightly larger 6.9-inch display that is easier to hold than the boxy S24 Ultra.

    The QHD+ screen keeps Gorilla Armor 2 with anti-reflective coating, which remains one of the best outdoor displays on any phone. Weight drops to 218 g, a meaningful change for an Ultra. The Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy is fast and efficient, and Samsung removed Bluetooth Air Actions from the S Pen, a small loss for people who used it as a remote.

    The ultrawide camera jumps to 50 MP, joining the 200 MP main, 10 MP 3x and 50 MP 5x telephotos. Battery stays at 5000 mAh with 45W charging, but endurance is excellent. Rivals such as the Vivo X200 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max matched or beat it in some camera tests, yet nothing else combines a stylus, this zoom range and seven years of updates.

  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge

    Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 Edge in India in May 2025 at Rs 1,09,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. It is a design-first phone: a titanium frame just 5.8 mm thick and a weight of 163 g, despite carrying a 6.7-inch QHD+ display. It sits between the S25+ and S25 Ultra in price, which made its value case harder than its looks.

    Picking it up is the selling point. It feels lighter than the smaller S25 in some hands and slips into pockets that the Ultra strains. The screen is a sharp 1440 x 3120 panel with a 120Hz adaptive rate, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy delivers the same speed as the other S25 models, although sustained gaming makes the thin body warm.

    To get so slim Samsung cut the telephoto, leaving a 200 MP main and 12 MP ultrawide. The 200 MP sensor's crop handles 2x well, but it cannot match the zoom of the cheaper S25. The 3900 mAh battery and 25W charging are the clear compromises, and heavy users will need a top-up by evening. Its closest rival in concept was the later iPhone Air, not the regular flagships.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5

    Samsung's fifth-generation book-style foldable reached India in July 2023 at Rs 1,54,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. Its headline change was the new Flex hinge, which lets the phone close flat with no wedge-shaped gap, making it slimmer when folded and less prone to collecting grit. It launched against the first wave of serious foldable competition in India.

    Open, you get a 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner screen with a less visible crease than before; closed, a narrow 6.2-inch cover display. The narrow outer screen remained the main complaint, especially next to wider rivals like the Pixel Fold and OnePlus Open. Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy provides smooth multitasking, and Samsung's taskbar and three-app split view are the most mature foldable software of the time.

    Cameras are a 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 10 MP 3x telephoto, solid but behind the Galaxy S23 Ultra. A 4400 mAh battery and 25W charging feel conservative for the price. IPX8 water resistance, S Pen Fold Edition support and a polished app experience are its strengths, while the OnePlus Open, arriving months later, beat it on cameras and charging speed.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5

    Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip5 in India in July 2023 at Rs 99,999 for 8 GB/256 GB. After years of a tiny notification strip, the Flip5 brought a 3.4-inch Flex Window on the outside, large enough for widgets, quick replies, maps and even full apps through Samsung's Labs setting. The Motorola Razr 40 Ultra had a bigger cover screen, setting up a direct contest.

    The new hinge closes flat with no gap, and the 187 g phone feels dense and well made. Inside is a 6.7-inch 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a crease you notice mainly at angles. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy keeps everything fast, and Flex Mode lets the half-folded phone act as its own tripod for video calls and time-lapses.

    There is no telephoto: you get a 12 MP main and 12 MP ultrawide, with a 10 MP inner selfie camera, though the cover screen lets you use the main camera for selfies too. The 3700 mAh battery is the weak spot and heavy users will need to charge by evening, with only 25W wired support. For style and compactness, few phones of its time matched it.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6

    The Galaxy Z Fold6 launched in India in July 2024 at Rs 1,64,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. Samsung refined rather than reinvented, making it lighter at 239 g, slightly squarer with sharper corners, and a little wider on the outside with a 6.3-inch cover display. Galaxy AI features like Note Assist, interpreter mode and Sketch to Image were heavily promoted.

    The 7.6-inch inner panel is brighter and its crease is a bit less pronounced than on the Fold5. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy with a larger vapour chamber improves sustained performance for gaming and multitasking. Samsung also raised protection to IP48, which adds some resistance against larger dust particles, though fine sand remains a concern.

    Cameras are unchanged from the Fold5: 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 10 MP 3x telephoto. The 4400 mAh battery and 25W charging also carry over, an area where the OnePlus Open and Vivo X Fold3 Pro were clearly ahead with bigger cells and faster charging. Where the Fold6 wins is software polish, accessory support and the update promise of seven years.
