Last week, Samsung started rolling out the Android 11-based One UI Core 3.1 update for the Galaxy A01. A few days later, the company is now seeding this very same update for the Galaxy M01, which is a rebranded Galaxy A01. Additionally, the Android 11 update is also being rolled out for the Galaxy A41 as One UI 3.1.

The Samsung Galaxy M01 Android 11 (One UI Core 3.1) update arrives with firmware version M015GXXU3BUD9. Apart from bringing new features and UI, the latest system update for this entry-level smartphone also bumps up the security patch level to April 2021.

On the other hand, the Android 11 (One UI 3.1) update for the Samsung Galaxy A41 is currently live in Russia with firmware version A415FXXU1CUD4. It also comes with April 2021 security patches.

Users of these two smartphones can head over to Settings > Software update > Download and install to check whether their unit has received the update. 

Anyway, like any other software update, this OTA update is also being pushed in batches across different regions. Therefore, it may take some time to hit every unit in the market.

Lastly, it is worth noting that Android 11 is the first-ever major software update for these two phones. However, we are not sure if the cheaper Galaxy M01 will receive Android 12 in the future.

Prior to this, the company had launched the Galaxy A40 model in March 2019.

Samsung‘s decision to revamp its premium mid-range Galaxy A series turned out to be a deft move. The A-series was a tremendous success in 2019 and the tech giant is looking to capitalise on last year’s success this year 2020 with the introduction of the Galaxy A51 and A71. The company is also targeting the lower mid-range segment with the Galaxy A31 and A41. Before now, little is known about the two models except that Samsung had trademarked the monikers. A new leak has, however, changed all that as details of both Galaxy A-series models (Galaxy A31 and A41) have been outed.

The leak focuses on just the battery and camera specs of both models. It touts the Galaxy A31 as coming with a 48MP main camera as well as a 5MP macro shooter which would be a noticeable step up from the A30 and it’s 16MP + 5MP combo. On the battery aspect, the A31 will pack an impressive 5,000 mAh cell.

On the other hand, the Galaxy A41 will also present with a 48MP main camera sensor but the leak stopped short of revealing the other sensors at the rear. The front-facing one is tipped to come in at 25MP. The Galaxy A31 and A41 have previously been revealed to come with 64GB of storage on its base model.

There is still no word yet on the launch date but we expect the company to begin taking the wraps off the mid-range models after the flagship Galaxy S20 models get launched.

The Galaxy A series got revamped this year. It now covers a wider range of prices and is no longer a line of upper mid-range phones. This decision contributed to Samsung‘s growth in markets like India where it was already losing to Chinese players like Xiaomi.

A few weeks ago, Samsung applied for trademarks for 9 new Galaxy A smartphones which will launch next year. Today, the camera specs for 8 of those phones have leaked, way ahead of their release dates.

The source of the leak is Sudhanshu Ambhore @Sudhanshu1414. He had previously teased that he had info about eight new devices scheduled for launch next year before tweeting the details today.

The phones are the Galaxy A21, Galaxy A31, Galaxy A41, Galaxy A51, Galaxy A61, Galaxy A71, Galaxy A81, and Galaxy A91.

Galaxy A21

The Galaxy A21 will come with triple rear cameras, one more sensor than its predecessor, the Galaxy A20. The primary camera is a 13MP sensor that is paired with an 8MP wide-angle camera and a 5MP depth sensor.

Galaxy A31

The Galaxy A30 also has dual rear cameras but its successor, the Galaxy A31 will have three. It will keep the 16MP primary sensor, upgrades the 5MP ultrawide camera to 8MP and adds a 5MP depth sensor.

Galaxy A41

The Galaxy A40 which also has a 16MP + 5MP dual camera combo will get a triple camera setup for its successor. The Galaxy A41 will have a 24MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 5MP depth sensor.

Galaxy A51

Samsung will switch to quad rear cameras for the Galaxy A51. The main camera will be a 32MP sensor paired with a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 12MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom and a 5MP depth sensor.

Galaxy A61

The Galaxy A60’s successor will also get the quad-rear camera treatment. There is a 48MP main camera on the Galaxy A61. It will also have an 8MP ultrawide camera, a 10MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom like the Galaxy A51, and also a 5MP depth sensor.

Galaxy A71

The Galaxy A71 will also get a 48MP primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide sensor, another 12MP sensor but telephoto with 2x optical zoom, and then a ToF sensor.

Galaxy A81

The Galaxy A81 is Samsung’s most powerful A series phone at the moment but it will soon be dethroned by the upcoming Galaxy A90. The Galaxy A81 will have quad rear cameras and we doubt it will adopt the slide+rotate design of the Galaxy A80’s triple rear cameras.

The main camera of the Galaxy A81 is a 64MP sensor and it will be paired with a 16MP ultrawide angle camera, a 12MP telephoto camera with optical zoom (source not sure if it is 2x or 5x) and a Time of Flight sensor.

Galaxy A91

Last but definitely not least is the Galaxy A91, a successor to the yet-to-be-announced Galaxy A90. This will make use of Samsung’s 108MP sensor, most probably the one which was announced recently. It will add a 16MP ultrawide camera, a 12MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom and a ToF camera.

Samsung’s Galaxy A series lineup for next year will be packing some serious camera specs which should make the competition worried. However, the authenticity of the above info is still unconfirmed. The Galaxy A20 launched in April which means a successor is still about eight months away. Even if the above specs are true, as of the time of writing, Samsung may decide to change some features.

The post Camera specs for 2020 Samsung Galaxy A series leaked appeared first on Gizmochina.

This year the Galaxy A series went from being a line of upper mid-range phones to a mix of entry-level, mid-range, and premium/upper mid-range devices, thanks to the cancellation of the Galaxy J series.

The new Galaxy A series already has several members starting from the entry-level Galaxy A10 to the mid-range Galaxy A40 and to the Galaxy A80 which currently sits at the top. Samsung is planning to release more models such as the Snapdragon 855-powered Galaxy A90 and the budget Galaxy A10s.

According to the latest reports, the Korean smartphone company has already registered the names for next year’s models at the European Union Intellectual Property Office.

The document shows Samsung has registered the following names for 2020’s Galaxy A series:

• Galaxy A11
• Galaxy A21
• Galaxy A31
• Galaxy A41
• Galaxy A51
• Galaxy A61
• Galaxy A71
• Galaxy A81
• Galaxy A91

We are not sure if these are all the Galaxy A phones that will launch next year, but knowing Samsung we are pretty sure there will be more with “e” and “s” suffixes.

We also believe some of these phones will launch under the Galaxy M line in some other markets. The Galaxy A40s, for example, is sold as the Galaxy M30 in markets outside China. The Galaxy A60 sold in China is also the same device sold as the Galaxy M40 in India.
