The Samsung Galaxy A series still holds significant sway among Vietnamese users. Personally, I'm quite impressed with the Galaxy A32, hence my decision to buy and use it for the past month.
Here's my reflection after 30 days of experiencing the Galaxy A32 and the immense satisfaction of choosing the perfect smartphone to fulfill my needs.
Week 1: The screen is absolutely stunning!
The first aspect, and arguably the most impactful, on the Galaxy A32 is its display. Everything that shines brightest is encapsulated here.
The Galaxy A32 features a high-quality Super AMOLED display, Full HD+ resolution, with a 6.4-inch screen size. Samsung has enhanced the display experience of the A32 by introducing a 90Hz refresh rate.
The upgrade from 60Hz to 90Hz is undeniably significant. You'll easily notice smoother transition effects in certain apps like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Samsung's default apps.
Not to mention, the Galaxy A32 boasts a brightness that can be cranked up to 800 nits, making it usable even in the brightest sunlight.
The Super AMOLED display of the Galaxy A32 in this price range is hard to fault in any aspect, with its high sharpness, vibrant colors, excellent contrast, and deep blacks that make prolonged movie watching a strain-free experience.
Week 2: Overall, multimedia entertainment on the Galaxy A32 is decent
With a beautiful screen out of the way, let's talk performance. The Galaxy A32 with Helio G80 still handles basic apps like Facebook, Zalo, and Messenger smoothly without any issues.
Speaking of gaming, lighter entertainment games like Temple Run, Subway Surfers, and Asphalt 8 run smoothly on the device. As for heavier titles like Liên Quân or PUBG Mobile, rest assured, it handles them just fine.
While the Galaxy A32 can handle the mentioned games, it's not the best experience due to being capped at 30 FPS and running on average to low graphics settings.
However, Samsung compensates a bit by equipping the Galaxy A32 with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, allowing for smooth multitasking and ample app storage.
The Galaxy A32's 5,000 mAh battery can last up to 2 days with light usage. Even with heavy usage, this phone can easily last a full day.
The device supports fast charging, but in my experience, it's most effective in the first 30-40 minutes, where it can charge about 1/3 of the battery. To fully charge, it takes over 2 hours.
Week 3: Camera packed with features for exploration
The camera is a noteworthy aspect of the Galaxy A32, with Samsung significantly improving the software, especially in the scene optimization feature.
In terms of the number of lenses, the Galaxy A32 boasts 4 rear cameras, including a 64 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultra-wide camera, a 5 MP macro camera, and a 5 MP depth-sensing camera.
The scene optimization feature helps the device adjust parameters such as brightness, detail, etc., to produce the most harmonious photos. Specifically, in strong or backlight conditions, other mid-range smartphones in this price range may produce dark photos, but the Galaxy A32 remains sharp.
The macro camera brings a rather interesting experience, allowing you to focus on close-up objects and explore unique shooting angles to showcase on social media.
With so many lenses, the Galaxy A32 offers a variety of new and unique shooting styles. For more details, you can refer to this article.

Week 4: Discovering more cool features
One UI is a UI I really appreciate in the Android world for its simplicity, beauty, and many useful features.
The Galaxy A32 was launched with One UI 3.1 on the latest Android 12 platform. Currently, I haven't found out whether this smartphone will receive updates for 3 generations of Android. However, one thing is certain, I will receive two more major updates, and Samsung promises security support for up to 4 years.
Some features I really like include the one-handed mode which makes operation more convenient, especially since the Galaxy A32 has a fairly large screen. Doubling up on apps like Messenger helps me log into multiple accounts and send messages faster.
Adjusting Pop-Up call notifications on Galaxy A32One particularly useful feature I found is the Pop-Up notification for calls, which is handy when you're gaming or working and don't want to be interrupted by notifications popping up on the screen.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I'm extremely satisfied with choosing the Galaxy A32. This smartphone boasts a versatile camera system, excellent display, outstanding battery life, and comes with the latest One UI interface packed with useful features.
The Galaxy A32 is a more sensible choice for most users, especially those currently using the Galaxy A30/A31 and looking to upgrade.
