PRESS RELEASE
Brand new Galaxy A range offers unmatched style, performance and enhanced features
London, UK – December 2, 2015 – Samsung Electronics today announced its latest Galaxy A smartphone line up, offering premium design, easy mobile payment technology, and enhanced camera features.
The Galaxy A 2016 range gives consumers powerful performance in three screen size options: 5.5-inch for the A7, 5.2-inch for the A5 and 4.7-inch for the A3.
The line-up reinforces the Samsung Galaxy design heritage, combining metal and glass to create a beautiful premium exterior with a narrower bezel, for an exceptional viewing experience.
The 2016 Galaxy A line up also comes equipped with an enhanced camera system for brighter and clearer photos and videos. The advanced system includes Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) to prevent image blurring, as well as a front and rear F1.9 lens to allow users to take the best photos in dark conditions. What’s more, with Samsung’s Quick Launch feature, double clicking the home button launches the camera in less than a second. People can also take their best selfie yet with features including Wide Selfie, Palm Selfie and Beautifying Effects.
The Galaxy A 2016 line up will be available in the UK from April 2016 and will be expanded to global markets. Samsung UK will announce UK availability in due course.
