The storage goes up to 128GB with 6GB of RAM but starts at 32GB with 3GB of RAM. There's a quad-camera with a 48MP main sensor, but the other sensors are a 5MP ultra-wide lens and a pair of 2MP lens for depth sensing and macro capture respectively.

Buyers will be offered the phone in just black and white.

The Galaxy A51 5G makes a great upgrade pick. It's sized similarly, but a more powerful processor and 5G support futureproof you for years to come while the display and camera will keep you wanting to use it.
