Hello! 

We have a Ukrainian guest living with us at the moment and her current phone is very old, cracked & maxed out on memory. She's keen to stick with Samsung which I know nothing about. 

Budget is a fairly major factor so the S models are out of her price range.

Would love some advice or feedback about which A model people would recommend. We're looking for at least 64gb of memory, it must have dual sim and a decent camera. 

Thanks 😁

Hey @PaulaC13 

We've got quite a range, so it's kind of hard to choose! We believe it might be best to have a look on our Online Shop: https://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-a/

The prices start from £139! If the phone isn't in stock, you can always look into purchasing one from a reputable retailer too!

Hi @PaulaC13  To your credit that you welcoming a Ukrainian guest.

There are variations in the A series ,though more budget friendly.  Whilst I have used the S Series myself I am aware of the offerings in the A range and know a few who have them.  

personally I think the best ones to go for are the A33 and A53  and would certainly meet the  criteria but would if buying outright cost around £329-399.  Review on some of the best choices here https://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-a-series-buyers-guide 

The A03 is more of a budget offering at £139 and whilst meets the sim and storage requirements ,camera not so impressive  and  obviously not as fast or powerful. A review of this one here https://www.thetechnivore.com/samsung-galaxy-a03-review/  Would not suggest this one unless budget prevents the other choices being considered.

Offerings on Samsung's site here https://www.samsung.com/uk/smartphones/galaxy-a-series/?product1=sm-a536bzkneub&product2=sm-a336blbg... 

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

I'd recommend the A53 5G.
I've been using it for the last few months and it's been exceptional. I can't fault it on anything.

Yes, same here. I love my A53 5G. No issues at the moment. Hopefully will get Android 13 very soon. Patiently waiting.👍

I also have the A53 which is a great phone with 128Gb storage and 64Mb camera. Brand new they are £399 but you can get an excellent almost new one from eBay for around £240

I got mine brand new from Argos in May for £379. It wouldn't surprise me if it can be found even cheaper if we did a good search.

@PaulaC13 

Just a thought but outlets such as CEX and Game buy and sell phone's.

There maybe a phone there that's in the price bracket.

That's said I'd suggest to look at YouTube reviews and visit a Samsung Experience Store or Network Highstreet Store that has working retail demo models on display to have a play with.

We all have our different wants and needs from a phone.

I wish you all the best. Take care.  😎
