Samsung Galaxy A41: A lot of equipment at a small price
The Galaxy A41 is the youngest representative of the Galaxy A series from Samsung and has a reputation to protect. Until now, smartphones from this family were able to convince with their good price-performance ratio. As our test shows, the Galaxy A41 makes no mistakes either. The 6.1-inch mid-range smartphone offers a lot of value at a price of 299 Euros (~$335).
The equipment highlights of the Samsung Galaxy A41 include a Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels, a triple camera with 48 MP, and a selfie camera with 25 MP. The dual-SIM smartphone owes its performance to the MediaTek MT6768 octa-core processor and in addition to 4 GB RAM also brings 64 GB of internal storage.
Compared to its Galaxy A40 predecessor, the Galaxy A41 improves practically everything. While the Galaxy A40 already used a Super AMOLED display, it was not as bright. In comparison, the Galaxy A41 achieves an above-average brightness at 558.8 cd/m² on average, beating the Galaxy A40 (370.3 cd/m²) by a significant margin.
The small compromises during everyday operation that you have to accept with a mid-range smartphone do not weigh heavily in the Galaxy A41, being more of small annoyances rather than real disadvantages. For example, the available storage space could have been slightly larger, the color accuracy of the camera could have been better, and the battery life could have been even longer.

The high-quality case of the Galaxy A41 offers a slim 20:9 format and fits comfortably in the hand at a weight of 155 grams (~5.5 oz)
My fascination for computers started with the C64. Since then, I’ve put everything that comes my way in terms of hardware through its paces. From the C64 to the Amiga 500 and the first PC with an 8088 CPU, my list of projects has grown increasingly longer. For more than 20 years now I have also turned my hobby into my profession and have been active in the mobile section of Notebookcheck since 2021. Before that, I worked as a hardware editor for IDG Media (tecChannel.de) and VNU Business Publications (PC professional), among others.

Having worked as a programmer for 20 years (medical devices, AI, data management systems), I've been following the computer scene for many years and especially enjoy finding out about new technology advances. Originally from Germany but living in the US, I've been working as a translator more recently, with Notebookcheck allowing me to combine my interest in new devices and translation. Other interests include Buddhism, spending time in Tibetan monasteries, and translating ancient Tibetan texts.
