Samsung fans in Malaysia can now buy the company's latest mid-range phone, the Galaxy A31. It's available in Prism Crush Black, Prism Crush Blue, and Prism Crush White. The phone's official announcement for Malaysia mentions a recommended retail price of RM 1,099 ($257) but the company's online shop tells a different story. As of this writing, Samsung Malaysia is selling the Galaxy A31 for RM 50 less, or RM 1,049 ($245).
In addition, Samsung Malaysia is offering free gifts to customers who buy the Galaxy A31 before June 30. Aside from getting an RM 50 discount, buyers will also receive free Protection Plus worth RM 119 ($28).
A well-rounded mid-range phone
The Galaxy A31 is one of Samsung's most well-rounded budget phones of the year. It has a large 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display with a decent pixel count of 2400 by 1080, a MediaTek Helio P65 chipset, and it ships with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage expandable via microSD.
Like many other Galaxy A (2020) devices, the Galaxy A31 aims to deliver not only a decent screen but also a multi-camera system. It's made of a 48-megapixel 1/20″ sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide, and two 5MP shooters, one for macro and the other for depth.
The Galaxy A31 runs Android 10 and One UI 2.0 out of the box, and all the components tap into a 5,000mAh battery with 15W fast charging. All in all, the Galaxy A31 is a competent budget phone and you'd be hard-pressed to find a better value proposition at this time. Will you be buying one, or have you ordered yours already?
