James Kitto, Vice President of Sales, Samsung UK and Ireland, told us…
We’re excited to bring to market our latest 5G smartphone within the A Series line-up. The Galaxy A42 5G delivers premium features and innovation, powered ready for super-fast 5G network connectivity; it is part of our ongoing commitment to deliver next-generation connectivity to more people.
This is a phone that’s dancing in the OnePlus Nord and Moto G 5G Plus arena – yet more choice for less money. Definitely no bad thing.
