80% Samsung Galaxy A15 4G smartphone review – A lot of capabilities for daily use at a low cost | Notebookcheck
Samsung now also uses a bright AMOLED screen in its entry-level phone of the Galaxy A series and includes much faster storage and a wide-angle camera. Will this dispense with the need for a more expensive smartphone? We find out in our test.
80% Samsung Galaxy A15 vs Galaxy A14: Which is the better buy?
Source: Tech Advisor English
In conclusion, both the Galaxy A15 and the Galaxy A14 are excellent budget phones that offer a compelling combination of features, performance and affordability. However, if you’re considering only these two phones, the Galaxy A15 is the better buy. It offers better performance, camera quality and battery life at a lower price than the A14.

80% Samsung Galaxy A15 4G vs Galaxy A15 5G: Which is the better buy?
Source: Tech Advisor English
Ultimately, choosing between the Samsung Galaxy A15 5G and the A15 4G boils down to individual priorities and specific budgets. If you want 5G connectivity and slightly better performance, the A15 5G is the better option. However, if you’re content with 4G connectivity and dependable performance at a more affordable price point, the Galaxy A15 4G remains an excellent choice. Not if you’re in the US, though – the 5G version is the only one available there.

80% Samsung Galaxy A15 (4G) review
Source: Tech Advisor English
You can really get a lot for your money these days, and the Samsung A15 is further proof of this. It has a great display, good amount of storage (which can further be expanded via microSD), not to mention excellent battery life. Performance is ok, but there are some stutters here and there, plus camera shutter lag which can be annoying. The cameras themselves are OK, albeit the one of the weaker areas of the phone. If you want a cheap smartphone for work, as a backup for your main one, or just don’t want to spend loads for a device if you only want to take calls, surf the web and pay for things at the checkout, then the Galaxy A15 is a solid option.

70% Samsung Galaxy A15 LTE review
Source: GSM Arena English
The Galaxy A15 4G is an excellent offer for its asking price of €190. It comes with a bright and smooth 1080p AMOLED screen, a good chipset, camera that gets the job done, and great battery life. The phone runs on the latest Android version and One UI, too, and it will get 3 major Android updates. It is hardly the best phone, that is for sure. There is no ingress protection, the speaker is so-so, the GPU performance is mediocre, and the cameras are no good at night. But even as is - the Galaxy A15 just make sense. We had it rather easy with the Galaxy A15 - it is a good phone for the price, and we do recommend it if it fits your budget. We do suggest exploring its 5G version first, though.

Choosing Between Samsung Galaxy A15 4G and Galaxy A25 5G – Which Is the Right Phone for You?
Source: Tech X Reviews English
The Galaxy A25 steps up the game with its Super AMOLED display and a smoother 120Hz refresh rate, making it a better choice for those who enjoy vibrant colors and fluid scrolling. The Exynos 1280 processor, coupled with 5G capability, positions it as a more future-proof device, offering better performance in gaming and intensive applications. The dual-speaker setup provides an enhanced audio experience. Camera-wise, the A25 offers noticeable improvements, especially in terms of white balance and saturation. So, in conclusion, the comparison between the Samsung Galaxy A15 and Galaxy A25 is a tale of budget versus features. While the A15 offers affordability and reliable performance, the A25 steps up with enhanced features like a superior processor, better display technology, and 5G capability.

2024’s Big Question: Should You Switch to Samsung Galaxy A15 from Galaxy A14?
Source: Tech X Reviews English
When evaluating the Samsung Galaxy A15 and A14, price plays a crucial role in determining their value for money. As of the latest market information, the Galaxy A14 retails for approximately $150, offering 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. On the other hand, the Galaxy A15 is priced slightly higher at $160 for a model with 6GB of RAM and the same storage capacity. This modest price difference of $10 raises an important question: does the Galaxy A15 provide enough additional value to justify this increase? After a detailed analysis of both the Samsung Galaxy A15 and A14, it’s clear that the A15 represents a significant step forward in several key areas. Price-wise, the slight difference between the two models makes the A15 an attractive proposition, especially considering the upgrades in display, performance, and camera capabilities.

6.50":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
