The Galaxy A15 was the major upgrade of this series, bringing a high-res 90Hz AMOLED, 25W fast charging and more RAM. The Galaxy A16 continues improving...

Samsung is offering a whopping 6 OS upgrades for this relatively entry level model. Too bad though, they junked the 3.5 mm jack for this one.

    I could be wrong, but didn’t previous generation of Samsung A series phones come with eMMC storage. I think this has UFS 2.2, so slight increase there as well.

    But I agree that overall it’s an incremental upgrade only. And base model of 4GB RAM might not hold in the long term. I had/have an entry level Samsung phone(A05 I guess), but that stutters much

      Sadly the storage upgrade isn’t gonna justify the total package here. These specs are really not going to live up to the promised 6 years. I think Scamsung just used the “6 years” as a slogan, where they can get away with selling bad hardware they have too much left off.
