<p>JOHANNESBURG, South Africa – 10 APRIL, 2019 – Samsung has launched the new <a href="https://www.samsung.com/za/smartphones/galaxy-a-series/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Galaxy A Series</a>, designed with incredible improvements to the essential device features. This includes immersive viewing experiences, longer lasting performance and ground-breaking cameras. The Galaxy A Series follows through on 10 Years of Galaxy Innovation, upgraded for all, at an affordable price. Which means, it’s set to capture the imagination of more people, in more ways. Ultimately, the new Galaxy A Series is designed for the way people are connecting today – sharing, capturing and consuming live. The new series offers diverse, powerful devices that can keep up with these spontaneous, collaborative interactions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“Galaxy A is designed to provide an option for everyone, whether for first-time mobile users or value-seekers,” said Justin Hume, Director: Integrated Mobility at Samsung South Africa.” We focussed on the needs of the local market and have researched the unique preferences to bring the flagship experience to a broader audience. It offers premium features to South Africans who want to live the Galaxy life”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This commitment to delivering meaningful innovation to everyone has also led to the evolution of the J Series into the A Series. By upgrading Galaxy J to Galaxy A, consumers will be able to access innovative essentials as part of a streamlined offering, making it easier for South Africans to choose the right device for them.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With the Galaxy A Series, consumers can also seamlessly experience the Galaxy ecosystem using key services such as <a href="https://www.samsung.com/za/apps/samsung-health/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Samsung Health</a>, <a href="https://www.samsung.com/za/apps/samsung-members/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Samsung Members</a>, and <a href="https://www.samsung.com/za/apps/bixby/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bixby</a>.
