The Samsung Galaxy A series represents a collection of budget-friendly and mid-tier Android smartphones and tablets, previously including premium mid-range models until 2023. Produced by Samsung Electronics, this series is part of the broader Galaxy brand, succeeding the Galaxy J series along with the Galaxy S "mini" line, and positioned below the flagship Galaxy S series. The series debuted with the first-generation Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5, which were unveiled on October 31, 2014, and launched in December of the same year.

Upon introducing the 2017 lineup, Samsung set an ambitious target to sell up to 20 million units of Galaxy A smartphones, focusing on markets across Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.

By 2025, a majority of the Galaxy A models have become widely accessible globally. The Galaxy Tab A tablets also belong to this series and enjoy broad international availability.

Within the Galaxy A lineup, only the Galaxy A90 5G offers support for Samsung DeX. Additionally, the Galaxy A80 stands out as the sole Samsung device without any hole punch, notch, side cutout, or camera island—features found on devices like the Galaxy S10+, Huawei P40 Pro, and iPhone 15. This is due to its innovative motorized camera mechanism that repurposes the rear cameras for selfie capture.

Galaxy Ax2

In September 2020, Samsung unveiled the seventh iteration of its Galaxy A series. This generation features enhanced RAM and storage capacities, multiple camera improvements, the inclusion of optical image stabilization on premium variants, and expanded 5G availability across more models. Some devices in the lineup offer larger displays compared to their LTE-only versions. Notably, the series marks a transition away from Exynos processors toward Qualcomm and MediaTek chipsets, as Exynos is now reserved exclusively for flagship devices. Additionally, an IP certification—previously seen on the A8 and A9 models but absent in the two preceding generations—was reinstated for select higher-tier models. The lineup consists of thirteen distinct models. Moreover, starting with the A52, A72, and A82, the series introduced 120 Hz refresh rate displays. Contrary to the prior year, only 4G variants were available in the A7x range. The reintroduction of 5G-only models occurred for the first time since the Galaxy A90, beginning with the A42 and A82, followed by the subsequent release of 5G-exclusive versions within the A7x, A5x, and A3x series.

Galaxy Ax3

In August 2021, Samsung launched the eighth iteration of its Galaxy A series. This generation featured larger display sizes across both LTE and 5G variants, unlike the previous generation where larger screens were exclusive to 5G models. Notable enhancements included various camera improvements, the reintroduction of the peach color option after a two-generation hiatus, and the comeback of Exynos processors in the A33 and A53 models, a chipset last utilized in the A51 and A71. Additionally, the 5G-enabled A7x model was revived this year. The lineup comprises ten devices, maintaining a more streamlined selection compared to the peak diversity seen in the Ax0 series.

From this generation onward, the A3x, A5x, and A7x series models no longer feature a headphone jack and are exclusively available with 5G connectivity. However, these models benefit from extended software support, receiving four years of operating system updates and five years of security patches. Significantly, the A3x series marks the first time an IP rating has been included.

Galaxy Ax4 Series

In 2022, Samsung launched the ninth iteration of the Galaxy A lineup, comprising eight distinct models. This generation marks the debut of a 1080p resolution display within the A1x range, while the A54 model brings back a rear glass panel design, last featured in the final versions of the Galaxy A8 and A9 series. Starting with this release, the A2x series benefits from update support equivalent to that provided for the A33, A53, and A73 models. Additionally, the A3x series introduces a 120 Hz refresh rate for the first time. Consistent with previous releases, both the A34 and A54, along with upcoming A3x and A5x devices, are slated to receive software updates for four years. Notably, the A2x series is offered exclusively as a 4G variant in this cycle.

Galaxy Ax5

In 2023, Samsung unveiled the 10th iteration of the Galaxy A series. This generation marked the debut of Super AMOLED screens within the A1x lineup, introduced 25 W Super Fast Charging even on entry-level models, and featured the new "Key Island" design across all except the A0x variants. Additionally, a metal frame made its first appearance in the A5x series. The A3x models abandoned the teardrop notch, opting instead for the holepunch style that Samsung has implemented since the Galaxy Note 10, S10 Lite, and A51.

Notably, this generation saw no US release for any A5x devices for the first time.[22] The last models in the A1x and A2x series to include a headphone jack were the A15 (LTE/5G) and the A25 5G; subsequent releases removed this feature. Beginning with this generation, all A2x models are exclusively available with 5G connectivity. The A55 is distinguished as the first Galaxy A device to support eSIM. This generation also represents the final installment of A5x and A3x models equipped with a microSD or second SIM slot, likely encouraging adoption of eSIM technology. Furthermore, starting from this release, the update support timeline for A1x devices was aligned with that of the A2x, A3x, and A5x series.

Tablets

Samsung launched the Galaxy Tab A lineup in March 2015, featuring models with 8.0-inch and 9.7-inch displays, complemented by an S Pen stylus and pre-installed Samsung apps. This marked the first Samsung Galaxy device outside the Note series to include the S Pen functionality. Later versions of the Tab A series omitted the stylus to reposition the range within the budget segment. Additionally, a children’s edition was introduced in select markets starting with the Galaxy Tab A9 series, which also incorporated a stylus.[24]
