Samsung Galaxy A50 A505G 64GB Duos GSM Unlocked Phone w/Triple 25MP Camera - Black

Highly recommend. I am so done buying phones with carriers and spending around 30$ a month for a high end phone. I have MetroPCS in Miami FL and it works very well. Especially outdoors (my house is known to hinder cell reception). Outside with a weak LTE+ I can hit 59mb/s down and 39 up. On normal LTE I get 21 to 29, though upload says anywhere from 3 to 15. But I never really upload. When I am in a highly populated area in Miami LTE+ on full bars gets me 80mb/s plus (have hit 100 plus a couple times). This phone is a monster. MetroPCS offers the A20 for a very low price for new customers but about 208$ activated for a current customer with in store rebate. The different between the A20 and A50 is large. So paying the extra 30-50$ is worth it. 4gb of RAM is pretty high end now (some upper phones are at 6) as many phones of good quality offer 2gb to 3gb (I believe the A20 is 3gb) 64gb internal storage is enough for me but you also get a free 64gb microSD. I love microSDs since you can put them in so many things to share so I see this as a major plus (the SD card is class 10 ultra capable of high speed transfer so great quality). The processor is one of the better Exynos sets and much higher than the A20 with a much better GPU. Everything I have done has been lightning fast. The processor upgrade from the A20 is worth the money alone. The screen/display is amazing. Samsung's AMOLED brand always delivers. The front of the phone is beautiful. And it comes with a screen protector on already (i suck at putting them on) with a free clear case that is ok, but better than nothing till you get a better one. Basically this phone is at least on par with a Galaxy S9 and close to the 10. Just in a more plastic shell. Still feels great in your hand. Not heavy very accessible. Battery life for me has been weird but I am a very heavy user who is constantly browsing and reading watching Netflix and YouTube. It lasts my entire day of heavy use so far. Really wish I could open it for multiple battery use . I don't use cell cameras much as I'm in the stone age of social media (hate snap chat and FB) but took a couple photos and they were the best cell phone pictures I have ever taken (in terms of quality). The bad? Things that don't affect me much. The fingerprint scanner and fingerprint functions totally were a hassle for me. I don't like using it but I tried and was very dissatisfied. It was difficult to get my fingerprint read to open anything. So I stuck with the pattern or code. I have not tried face recognition. Overall this phone is a must for MetroPCS users that are interested in the A20 or someone who wants a powerhouse phone without shelling out more than $500. Samsung still has the bloat ware. OneUI is ok. Better than TouchhWiz and some bloat can be frozen. I haven't messed with Bixby (always hated Google assistant). I paid $238 for mine. Wish I did it sooner. Remember to make sure the model purchased will support USA LTE If you are here in the states (some A50 do not. My A505G does) and this is a GSM phone not a CDMA so no Verizon or Sprint. As someone who has had 3 different Notes, the original Galaxy 1 and the 6, this phone is just great. Save your money. Get this phone is a nice sturdy case and you win. An edit to add in the end but better Samsung phones have a great sound chipset and can make music sound so much better than other phones. I came from the J7 Prime and music is so much better on this phone. TL;DR if you are a MetroPCS customer on a budget this phone is a must. Good battery fantastic chipset. Amazing display. Bad fingerprint sensor.

Last year we needed new phones. I like Samsung products, but I refuse to pay the asking price for the high end Galaxy phones. We ended up buying two BLU Vivo8s for around $150 each. They had an awesome battery but were glitchy from the beginning(not enough time or room to list the details). We lived with them for a year or so, but after a while we were just ready for something else. I saw an article on the A50 on some website and was intrigued. Even though I could not find a US specific A50 for sale, after some digging I found the SM-A505G model was supposed to be US compatible. It's the Latin America version if I remember right. We took a chance and ordered one A50 and one A30....hoping they would work on AT&T in the midwest. Both phones take NANO sims(not micro) so we had to get different cards before we could try them. Calling worked just fine first try. Texting worked first try. We don't use a huge amount of data, but speeds seem fine. The only issue was with MMS. We sent a couple of pics back and forth just to test....no luck. :( In some of my searching and researching pre-purchase, I had found a site(and bookmarked it) that listed some settings that had to be changed(added) to get MMS to work. We entered the settings ....and it worked!! We've only had them about a week, but so far so good. None of the goofiness that the BLU phones did. The only Con so far....... Some other people mentioned an issue with the fingerprint reader on the A50. At first it worked great...first try, every time. But a day or two later I went to unlock and it did not recognize my fingerprint. After several tries it finally worked. I have deleted fingerprints and redone them and tried several different fingers. It just doesn't work consistently. I hate to say it, but even the BLU phone had a better fingerprint reader. Usually I just give up and enter the pattern....it's faster. Even with this one "con" I can live with it. Great phone...good price...Samsung firmware quality....good size for my old eyes(not too big or too small). Wife is happy with her A30 also(and the fingerprint reader works great on it). We'll probably keep these phones for a long time unless some unforeseen issues pop up.

The phone didnt come with manual. It was priced affordably with a 64 gb internal memory along with 64 gb sd card. Battery life great. Can run multiple apps and smoothly. For a significant amount of time. Takes phenomenal pictures. Quality is above and beyond expected. What ever you take a picture of comes out life like. Vibrant colors. Big screen for video play. Easily play games or stream. Easy to cast or transfer files to other devices. Phone honestly has more capabilities then I can think of. That's why I was so bummed about know owners manual. Phone can take abuse and no big scratches. Only real drawbacks in the flashlight. Not bright at all and still havent figured out if it has a signal light that goes off when in sleep mode and not in use that notifies you. If you missed a notification when you were occupied without having to stop and check always liked that capability. Very disappointed in the brightness of flash light. Overall for the price an unbelievable phone. No monthly fee for 18 months where at end of contract you have dropped 1200 to 2000 dollars for a phone you now have to upgrade or replace or god forbid continue paying for. One of the best features is the security of your files and life stories. Fingerprint very capable to all the most recent and best security precautions.

Very good price

As described

Vengo de un Redmi Note 5 y estoy muy satisfecho con este nuevo teléfono. Pros: -Primero lo primero, la pantalla es excelente, se nota la calidad viniendo del IPS del Redmi Note. -Muy buena batería, para el uso moderado que le doy funciona bastante bien y da el día sin problemas. -La capa de Samsung (One UI) con android 9 es mejor de lo que esperaba, más ligera que las anteriores, buen diseño y muchas buenas características, esperemos que Samsung no se olvide de actualizaciones. -La cámara es decente, y el sensor de gran apertura para mi es lo mas llamativo se presta para fotos más interesantes. -El procesador exynos, aunque no llega a ser tan potente como otros snapdragon de gamas medias, es suficiente para el dia a dia, junto con los 4 de RAM no da problema con el multitasking, en juegos no lo he probado por que no lo uso para eso. Contras: -El sensor de huella en pantalla, a lo que he leído es algo lento, en mi caso no lo he comprobado al 100 porque mi teléfono tenía una mica puesta en la pantalla, y como es de plástico probablemente interfiere en la detección de la huella, conmigo fallaba muchas veces y otras tardaba mucho que preferí usar otro método de desbloqueo, también tiene desbloqueo facial pero tampoco lo he probado. En lo personal no tengo problema con los otros métodos de desbloqueo pero si te importa mucho el lector de huellas, es algo a tener en cuenta, hay que mencionar que es algo que se puede mejorar por software, esperemos que en futuras actualizaciones se haga. -La parte de atrás es como plastico-cristal pero algo más inclinado a plástico, refleja la luz muy padre pero las marcas de huellas de los dedos se pegan, igual viene con una fundita. Apesar de los contras le dejo 5 estrellas, es muy buen teléfono con un montón de características por software que lo hacen divertido, algunas compartidas con las de los nuevos S10 por el One UI, tiene una buena pantalla y rendimiento balanceado.

Telefono rimandato indietro perché non si accendeva il display il servizio è stato molto gentile non scortese e educato e fatto subito rimborso peccato che è mi è capitato questa cosa ve lo consiglio come venditore
