This is what the quadruple camera of the new Samsung Galaxy A31 is for

If you don't know which mobile from the Galaxy range to buy, Samsung makes it even more complicated (or not). The company has launched a new low / mid-range model, the Galaxy A31. This terminal arrives to renew the Galaxy A30, and it does so with a quad camera, a renewed design and a huge battery. We tell you all the details and what those four cameras on the back are for.

The Galaxy A31 has a 48 megapixel main lens. This camera is in charge of taking angular photographs. That is, those that we usually do automatically. While the camera has the ability to capture up to 48 megapixels, photos are taken at a lower resolution. This is because the 48 MP takes up more space in the internal memory, and its use is focused to be able to view the photograph on a larger screen. Also to print or edit it in a more professional way. Therefore, if you think that you are going to give that use to photography, you can activate the mode from the camera settings.

The second lens, which has a resolution of 8 megapixels, is an ultra wide angle camera. The one that offers more information in photography, with a more panoramic angle. It is perfect for taking pictures of landscapes or buildings and capturing as much information as possible. We also find a 5 megapixel macro sensor, designed for close-range photography. The fourth camera, which is dedicated to measuring depth of field, is 2 MP. This sensor helps the main lens for portrait mode.

Two more cameras compared to the Galaxy A30

The quad camera of the Samsung Galaxy A31.

The differences of the Galaxy A31 camera compared to its previous generation, the A30 are notorious. The previous model had a double camera: a 16-megapixel main sensor with f / 1.7 aperture and a 5-megapixel depth sensor. Now, the main lens goes up to maximum resolution and two other cameras are added: an ultra wide angle lens and a macro. The selfie camera also changes: 16 megapixels on the Galaxy A30 and 20 megapixels on the a31.

Large 5,000 mAh battery

The Samsung Galaxy A31 does not sacrifice on screen. The South Korean firm bets on a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED panel with Full HD + resolution. On the screen we find a notch in the shape of a 'U', where the camera for selfies is housed. In terms of performance, we see an eight-core Exynos processor, accompanied by two versions of 4 or 6 GB of RAM, as well as 64 or 128 GB of storage respectively. In both cases expandable by micro SD card. All this under Android 10 and One UI 2.0, the latest version of Android. Among the advantages of this new interface is the possibility of applying the dark mode.

Taking into account that the screen is AMOLED and that we can apply the dark mode thanks to Android 10, we can achieve some more savings in autonomy. However, it may not be necessary. The battery of the Galaxy A31 is 5,000 mAh. Samsung has not given details of the duration. Yes from the load, which is 15W.

No price or departure date

The Samsung Galaxy A31 arrives in blue and red, with a black front and minimal frames.

Samsung has announced this model globally, but we still do not know the price of the different versions. Neither is your departure date. What we do know is that it will come in four finishes: black. White blue and red. All of them with a polycarbonate back.

In the absence of knowing what its official price will be, the Galaxy A31 seems a very interesting mobile for those users who are looking for a device that does not exceed 800 euros, and that offers a good photographic section, as well as a large screen and high resolution to consume multimedia content.
