Samsung is intent on reclaiming its lost market share in the Chinese market ad one series it is using to achieve that is the rebranded Galaxy A series. Just last week, Samsung announced the Galaxy A60 and A40s in China. Pre-orders for the models have now gone live on Samsung China’s official website. The Galaxy A60 pre-order will end on May 10 while the A40s’ will end on May 5 when sales will commence. As a recap, the Galaxy A60 packs a 6.7-inch FHD+ LCD display with a punch hole housing a 32MP selfie camera. The punch-hole design gifts the A60 a screen-to-body ratio of 92%. The punch hole as a diameter of 4.8mm and so is smaller than those of the Honor View 20 and Galaxy A8s. The phone also ditches the design of a traditional speaker at the top for sound-on-display technology just like the Galaxy A80.

On the camera end, Samsung Galaxy A60 has triple rear cameras – a 32MP primary camera, an 8MP super wide-angle camera, and a 5MP depth sensor. It is powered by the Snapdragon 675 processor and has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The phone gets its juice from a generous 3,500mAh battery. One outstanding feature is the presence of NFC. The device equally packs a fingerprint scanner. The A60 is priced at ¥1999 ($299).

On the other hand, the Galaxy A40s is basically a rebranded Galaxy M30 which was launched in India not too long ago. The device packs a 6.4-inch FHD+ Infinity U display. The notch houses a 16MP selfie camera. The phone is powered by the 14nm Exynos 7904 processor and it is paired with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. The A40s comes with triple rear cameras – a 13MP primary camera, a 5MP super wide-angle camera, and a 5MP depth sensor. The phone also packs a huge 5000mAh battery with 15W fast charging and a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. As for the pricing, the Galaxy A40s has a price tag of ¥1499 (~$224). You’ll agree the prices of the phones are spot on, putting them in positions to wrestle some of the market shares from competitors.
