The Galaxy A80 launched back in early April but didn’t go on sale until July. The phone has a notch-less display and comes with triple rear cameras that rotate to double as front-facing cameras. When it was unveiled, Samsung only announced a single variant with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. However, a new TENAA listing shows we may be getting a 256GB version soon.
TENAA’s database recently added a new entry for the Galaxy A80 (SM-A8050) and the listing shows the device was certified on the 12th of November. There is no difference in the specs save for the addition of a 256GB variant.
Initially, we were surprised the phone was only released in one configuration which didn’t make any sense since it doesn’t even have support for storage expansion.
So if you have been eyeing the Galaxy A80 but put off by its storage, you should look out for the new 256GB version. Its release date is still unknown and we can’t say if it will be available in other markets where it is sold too.
The Galaxy A80 has a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a 1080 x 2400 resolution. It is powered by a Snapdragon 730G processor paired with 8GB of RAM. The primary camera is a 48MP sensor and it is paired with an 8MP ultrawide camera and a TOF 3D camera. The phone also has an in-display fingerprint scanner and uses Sound-on-Display rather than a traditional speaker.
There is no audio jack but you get NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, and a USB Type-C port. Under the hood is a 3700mAh battery with support for 25W fast charge. The Galaxy A80 ships with One UI based on Android 9 Pie.
