Samsung just released the Galaxy A series, which includes its first 5G smartphone. In India, the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G was launched with the MediaTek Dimensity 700 processor. The Galaxy A22 5G has a 5,000mAh battery, a 90Hz display, and a 5G capability for around 20,000 rupees.
Poco M3 Pro 5G is another phone with the same chipset and 5G capability. It even costs ₹4,000 less than the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G and has been on the market for a few months.
Here’s how the two low-cost 5G smartphones with the same chipset match up against one another:
