The Galaxy A15 has a 6.5-inch 2340 x 1080 pixel AMOLED display. That’s big enough to be comfortable to navigate. It uses a MediaTek Dimensity 6400+ processor with 4GB of RAM. And it has 128GB of storage plus a microSD card slot for expansion. These specs aren’t going to rival Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S24 Ultra phone, but it’s enough to power most apps and entertainment. The casing has three cameras at back, among them a 50MP wide, a 5MP wide, and 2MP macro camera.
Senior reviews editor Kerry Wan calls this the best cheap Android phone in our list of best Samsung phones you can buy. In his expert take, he says “Don’t let the lower cost fool you; the Galaxy A15 5G has all the specs you’d want for a feasible mobile companion, from the relatively sizable 6.5-inch 90Hz AMOLED – a rarity in this price range – to the expandable storage (up to 1TB) to Samsung’s four-year commitment to security patches.”
After testing the Galaxy A15 5G, Wan observed, “it’s surprisingly sturdy to hold, and the 90Hz display looked great for app browsing and navigating.”
