For all those that are able to spend 1000 € on a smartphone, good for them.
The highest I have ever spent on a smartphone is 400 € (Mate 10 Pro), and I'm able to go maximum 500 € but that phone must really be worth it : impressive camera, good screen, great battery life, excellent performance and some extras (IR blaster, headphone jack, expandable storage and Radio) will be great.

    Anonymous, 10 Apr 2019I dont mind the plastic backs, glass is to fragile really!,... moreI prefer metal bodies. More scratch-resistant and stronger.

      What to expect: Pleasing marketing visuals and phone designs while having underwhelming specs, plastic body, extremely bad camera (yes, they have the worst camera in the midrange segment), super slow "fast" charging and prices higher than the competition. Samsung, you can only fool old people who know nothing about smartphone specs and you are only good at marketing and ads. The only good phones that you make are those in your flagship S series. Other than those, everything is crap.

        It's funny how they refer to it as, "a smaller 6.3"...". Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a "phone/phablet" around 7" and I won't mind getting bigger than that. I had the very old Note 8.0 (which makes calls/SMS) way back.

        Anyway, as per this article, I prefer to have the A60 with no moving parts and rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

            samsung is so desperate! on-screen cut-out is enough, no need to try some rediculous design to please buyer.. price is one of the reason it doesnt sell.. so simple issue..

              Anonymous, 10 Apr 2019Samsung became another Nokia.Although I was a Nokia lover and I am not a hater/lover of Samsung now, Samsung wont be the next Nokia. Samsung mobile develop its hardware and software (i.e User Interface) so well. Maybe you hate Samsung for being overpriced products.

                        Excited for the A70, love big amoled screens and big batteries for media consumption

                          Good move by Samsung. Hopefully they introduce these in all Markets, Globally, and Soon.

                                      We''ll, this will be the first time I will be watching a Samsung launching event due to BlackPink. YAY!

                                        I'd like to be interested in this but I'm not excited one bit about this. Samsung has been so disappointing lately that I've lost all interest. I like the S10 but it is way too expensive for me. Samsung's phones are just too expensive nowadays and are not worth their price at all.
