Samsung Galaxy A32 (2021) compared to Galaxy A30 (2019) | Detailed Review! By C Butler

Hey, what's going on guys, it's your boy! Toronto! Welcome back to the channel! Now, if you're new to the crew make sure you subscribe get notified, but if you're already a part of the crew salute now, today we're going to be taking a look at the Samsung Galaxy 8 30, on my ray and on my left we have the Samsung Galaxy a32. Now, let's talk about the displays, the storage, the batteries, the performance, the weight of these devices, the cameras, everything of that nature. I want to touch on as well also the performance things of that nature. So we could, just you know, cover these devices and see how much of a improvement that we got over the last two years from the original Samsung Galaxy a30 to the Samsung Galaxy a32. Now both of these vice devices are pretty similar, um they're going to match up pretty well. When it comes to performance, they both have four gigabytes of ram and they and um what happens is that we get 128 on the uh, a32 and 64 gigabytes of internal storage on the a30.

So that's the biggest difference when it comes to the storage, but the memory, the performance, everything is pretty much the same. We did get gorilla glass 3 on the a30. It tends to have an uh. You know at the front of this display. I do have a film over top of it to protect its amulet display um, and we do have an AMOLED display on this one with 90 hertz.

So that's the biggest difference, but you will notice that we do have um, no fingerprint sensor on the back of the a32 um they're, both going to be 6.4 inches. Full HD displays as well um. Now when it comes to the processing chips, we are getting uh. You know this. The Enos 7904 on the Samsung Galaxy 830, which to me runs like a champ still in 2021 we do have uh an older version of the Samsung UI with uh the android 10 on here.

So if you go to story info, you can see that we have 2.0 uh UI, I'm running on this one with the uh, the February first security patch. Now it's a lot easier to unlock the Samsung Galaxy a30 with that rear mounted fingerprint sensor versus the one that's inside this one embedded inside the display, but they both do offer facial recognition, which is actually pretty cool as well. So I really like that um now I don't have a screen protector on this one, so I should actually put one wait. Do I have one on here? I think there is one on here. I can't really tell but um.

Let me just show you the uh software that we're running on this guy. We have the 3.1 on here versus uh, and it's an android 11. , so um, that's the biggest difference is that you're going to get a newer software with uh the Samsung Galaxy a32. I believe that the a30 will get upgraded to android 11, but that's going to be um. You know, I'm not sure when they're going to announce that officially, but as you can see, they both are running pretty good software on these devices.

We do also have touch to wake on both of these devices, and you can see that they both have that you infinity you display, which is actually pretty cool with facial recognition inside it as well. So on the a32. There is a lot of scratches on here that you could only see in um. If you put this in direct sunlight, I don't have my lights in the studio, aren't bright enough to capture that, but um you could only see the scratches in the sunlight, which is cool, because even if you do scratch it, you can only see it in broad daylight. I can't see it right now, unless I put it at an angle and really show you, but they're micro scratches, you barely ever see this gorilla glass 3 on this guy.

I've had a case on this thing, the entire time I've been using it. So there are no scratches on here whatsoever. This is the Samsung Galaxy 830. So you know just keep that in mind, but um. I will be looking into some getting some cases for this guy, but it looks like there's a ton of scratches on here.

I'm just not sure if you could see that um or try to do some b-roll, so you can actually see that a little better but um they both have a pretty decent on build quality. We do get identical button placement on this these guys. So we do have the power button beneath um the volume rockers on both of these they're, both plastic edges, but we, except that gorilla glass. Now they both do have the uh 3.5 millimeter headphone jack, and type c and speakers and noise cancellation mics down below um. On the left side of these guys, you're going to see the exact placement of the sim ejector tool.

We do get two Janos and one SD card slot and at the top we do get noise cancellation mics on both of these guys as well, which is kind of cool. Now, when it comes to the feel in the hand the a30 is going to be a lot of lighter, it's its 165 grams of weight on this one versus 184 grams of weight on the a32, so you will feel a weight difference as well as a battery difference. So we do have a 5 000 William hour battery on the a32 versus on the Samsung Galaxy um, a30, so uh I have glasses on. So it's really hard for me to up unlock these, sometimes because of the light that I'm in. But let me know down below what you think about the overall screens now.

These are all the way up on full brightness, and you can see that they're AMOLED displays, so they're going to look super saturated punchy, super colorful and when it comes to the screens at the exact same size, 6.4 inches, we do have a super AMOLED display on the Samsung Galaxy a30 and an AMOLED display on these a32. They do look almost identical when I'm looking at them to make it out, but the a30 is going to have 403 pixels per inch right here and 411 on the 832 uh we're going to get a very high density display on both of these guys um. They both have really high pixels a per inch as well, like I said before, 211 I'm sorry 411 on the uh, a32 and um. You know it's going to be 403 on the uh a30 um, the original one so uh they both have perfect performance when it comes to displays and things of that. But one thing you want to note is that the um, you know you're going to get that 90 hertz on the Samsung Galaxy a32, whereas you won't get.

You only get the 60 hertz display. So if we go into display settings right here, and I'll show you right now that when we go into the display settings- and let's say we go into display on both of these- these- they look a little different because we've got the 2.0 versus 3.0 software. So here it is. You can see right here um. We do have adaptive screen brightness it's the same, but they do give us motion smoothness on this guy um.

We don't get that on the uh. You know I'm talking about on the 8th uh 30. , so you can see right here that they do offer like uh. You know a way you can change the color tones on here on the 830, which is on the right um, but just to keep. Let you guys know that we do have that 60 hertz and 90 hertz um on the a32 to make it a lot smoother when you're scrolling.

Now the um feel in the hand of the Samsung Galaxy a30 is going to be a 19 by 5 9 aspect ratios versus the newer 20 by 9 aspect ratio on the Samsung Galaxy a32. So it's a little more narrow when you're holding it in your hand. I could still wrap my fingers all the way around both of these things but, like I said, the aspect ratio was going to be a little more narrow on the a32 um. I did notice zippier performance for some reason. Um.

Furthermore, I don't know. If that's the screen animations, let me see if I have the animations removed on here. Um, you know advanced, so you get flash notifications on the back of this guy. When you turn those on you can do so, but I uh. If I go into accessibility, I should be able to turn off.

You know like the uh, the or into uh developer options. You can turn up the animations, but this guy has. It seems like it's a lot smoother when I'm using it. Even though it's a more powerful processing chip, we have the g85 MediaTek processing chip on the a32, which is actually an upgrade from the Enos one that we're rocking on the um 30. So just keep that in mind as well, so essentially what they did was they put a 12 um.

They put a 12 nanometer processing chip on this one, which is the Samsung Galaxy a32. They give you better performance and um. You can still get into your game launcher on this thing right here, so you can get access to your games and things of that nature. They have it on this one as well. So this is a'll update this later, but you can see you could launch all your games with this thing and all your games will be here at the bottom, and they have them listed here.

So you could check those out, but they do have a way you could launch all your games now they did update the storage on the a32 as well. So if I go into storage and I go into like a device manager down here below um right here- I could go into storage and I could show you that we do have 128 gigabytes um to use on the uh on the Samsung Galaxy a32 on the a32. We have 64 gigabytes to use, so you could always clean those up. You could clean up your different um settings here and manage the storage but, like I said right here, it does say that we do have um. It does tell you everything that you have here so 128 gigabytes of internal storage on this one, and you could always manage that.

But I really do like the fact that these both have at least 64 gigabytes of internal storage, so this is uh double what the a32 has, but both of these displays looked absolutely gorgeous. I definitely like the gorilla glass 3, though, on the Samsung Galaxy a30 versus the a32, not really having a certification for gorilla glass but uh. Honestly, they both are going to perform pretty nice for the price. Both of these devices are pretty snappy um when it comes to just opening up apps and things of that nature. So let's try play store, so that was the 832 on that one.

Let's try uh Samsung gallery browser, so that was the Samsung Galaxy a32 as well, and you can see that um. You know it's still loading on the 830 but um, you know pretty similar performance but um. I definitely like the upgrade that they did with the 14 nanometer to the 12 nanometer um. So, like I said before, you're getting uh, you know a better processing chip with the a32 right. Here.

It's going to give you the Armani g52 for graphics and on the um Samsung Galaxy a32 we're getting the Armani g71, but um. You know I'm talking about it. It does have a better clock speed when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy a32. So just keep that in mind that you will get better performance on that one um, because it's clocked in at um 1.8 versus the 1.6 on the a32 when it comes to the other four cores. So I really do like both of these devices now um.

When it comes to the cameras, we are getting um. Some similar features on both cameras. So right here, let me just show you we do get live focus right here, but on this one they call it the portrait mode, which is kind of cool. So I like how they did that you get wide angle, one on both of these guys uh. So let me just Rudy.

The camera does actually look a little better on the um 32 as well. It's a lot more detailed, so we get video um. We can show you all the modes right here that we get uh slow motion, pro mode panorama as well, where they did add a night mode and a macro mode in, in addition to the wide angle that they had on the Samsung Galaxy a30, we do get AR emoji as well, and you can switch to the AR zone. They also do let you customize your AR um emojis on both of these things. So what I did was, I definitely um did that.

I went to the uh what I went right here, where I can actually customize my own AR emoji and what they did is. I just took a picture from my phone, and it automatically made this guy right here, which is cool, so you could share that with friend, friends and family and things of that nature. So I kind of like both of these devices when it comes to that um. They got these little um cool emojis that you could definitely check out use to your own personal preference to your own press, personal liking, um. So I definitely like I look at that on the left.

That's crazy! So yeah they do have the AR emojis on both of these things, which is pretty cool, so I definitely like using those both of these devices. Now when it comes to the cameras they're going to be both pretty good, we are getting gyroscopes on both of these devices, there's NFC actually on board on the 32 as well um, so we do get Dolby Atmos as well on both of these things, and it does tell you have to be connected to your earphones via the Bluetooth or um, the anything or the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack. So you would have to have those plugged in, or you would have to have those connected. So I definitely like that as well, but if you go into uh your more uh, more options right here into settings, you can see that we do have NFC for the connections when we go up here, so you do see we get the mobile payments and things of that nature on the 832. They don't have that on the 830, but we do get hot spot things of that nature.

So I definitely like both of these devices when it comes to your know, the mobile payments will be um. You will get that on the 832, but you won't get that with the NFC feature on the a30. So we do have a 20 megapixel camera on the a32, and we have a 16 megapixel camera on the 830. So just to show you what that looks like I'm going to go back and flip it around. So you can see what I'm talking about, but um.

This is the 20. This is the 16. Um. They both look pretty sharp just to be completely 100, honest, which you get that wide angle for root for group selfies, which will actually make it a lot easier than you get that live focus to adjust the both intensity in the back and everything of that nature. When you go into video you're going to get 10 30 frames by 60.

So let me show you what I'm talking about right here. You can change it to 30, full HD or HD on there, and here it's going to give you the option. You have to go actually into settings to do it right here up top, so you can. Furthermore, you can see what I'm talking about. So I think it's a little more easy user-friendly on the a32, because you don't have to go into settings to do that, but um you get that night mode on the a32, like I said before, um, but as far as the performance they're they're they're um, there's a little of stutter.

I'm not gonna. Um lie on both of these devices, but nothing that's going to make you um, go crazy or anything like that. So we. We definitely have some good um games that we can launch on both of these devices. I really like um the performance on both of these things, but when it comes to the rear facing cameras, we're getting a 64 megapixel main camera on the a32, and an 8 megapixel for wide angle, a 5 megapixel for on portraits and another five for the macro shots on here on the uh Samsung Galaxy a30 we're getting a 16 megapixel standard and a 5 megapixel secondary camera.

So you know what I'm saying. So if you go here, you can see that if you were going to photos, you get this secondary lens for both and things of that nature, and it actually turns into a wider angle. So you know that's a wide angle camera right there, and I like how they did that, because now you can um. It goes up to four times zoom and everything like that. But I definitely like the fact that you are able to um.

You know change that. You also do get the scene optimizer mode which allows you to get that AI as well on this thing, so they both have that AI um scene optimizer. Now the fingerprint is a lot quicker on the a30 um, but it does have better technology, newer technology um. So, like I said you will be enjoying both of these. You get the scene optimizer and look.

This thing did actually bug out. You can see it's its bugging out right now, um. So let me reopen that back up, but some every once in a while. I will notice that um this thing starts wigging out, so we get that scene optimizer on the 832 and um. We get that on the a30 as well.

So both of these devices are really nice when it comes to the price. Now, when it comes to the performance on the uh Samsung Galaxy a32 we're getting that g85 um, which is definitely gonna, be pretty good for gaming on it's, coupled with that four gigabytes of ram with the g85, so the performance when you're coming when it's coming to gaming is gonna, be super smooth I'll. Definitely do a gaming test very soon on this thing, but you're gonna notice very smooth performance. No matter what you do, it's going to be super smooth on the g85 processing chip, a pair coupled with the four gigabytes and 128 gigabytes of external storage as well. So I really do like the graphics on this thing.

It's just going to be a really solid experience, um, so you're not going to experience much lag on this thing whatsoever. Now the g um, I'm sorry, the um 830 is definitely going to give you some pretty good performance as well. That was one of the upsides of this device uh overall, it just performed a perfect wow for the price, and I was really a big fan of it and um. You know it definitely had some perfect performance now. Is it going to be the best one that I've ever used in the entire world? No, that's not gonna, be the truth, uh or any stretch of the imagination, but it definitely will get you through.

You will be able to um game on here with the four gigabytes coupled with the 64 gigabytes of um, external storage, I'm sorry, internal storage, and you can expand the um external storage with a SD card slot. So both of these devices are going to be good for performance in 2021, but they definitely upgraded it on the a32 a little more. But I like the fact that they added NFC on this guy. I wish they would have kept the gorilla glass 3, because I do see um. You know scratches on the back of it uh on the a32, but this one has gorilla glass three, so it's just.

It seems a built a little stronger um. We do have a bigger battery cell on the a32 versus the a30. We also do have more storage as well. Furthermore, we also have the 3.0 Samsung UI versus this, the 2.0, which is going to make for a better experience. You do get android 11 versus android 10 on these guys, both of these things.

This has the AMOLED display. This has a super AMOLED display. They both have facial recognition um. But you know, like I said before: they're gonna, both really be good. Overall, they have the five gigahertz Wi-Fi.

The maps were really smooth when I was using them um. So I had no issues with the GPS when either of these guys um, you know, photos came out perfect for both of these things, so I was able to get some really beautiful, sunsets at nighttime on the 8 30, and I was able to get some beautiful, um sunsets on the 832 as well. So Samsung just does a perfect job with the color saturation and color science. You can see they both just do a perfect job of capturing um detail when it comes to like taking pictures. I like that they included the wide angle on the 830 as well uh, but both of these devices, I think, are still a lot of people still have them the a30 sold um.

I believe 9 million units altogether 9.2 million units, so I think the 832 will do just as good, but let me know what you guys think down below, and I'll get right back with you later: crew peace. You.
