Every detail, verified.
01Network and SIM
It works on any UK network and supports 5G (Sub6), so you get 5G wherever your plan offers it. The second nano-SIM position is shared with microSD. GSMArena lists NFC as market-dependent, so contactless payment depends on the model supplied; message us to confirm before you order.
02Display
GSMArena lists a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED at 1080 x 2340 with a 90Hz refresh rate and 800 nits in high brightness mode. AMOLED gives deeper blacks and richer colour than the LCD panels on the A13 and A14.

The A15 5G has a 5,000mAh battery with 25W wired charging over USB-C, faster than the 15W on older A-series phones. Because the phone is used, each unit has a minimum battery health at dispatch: 85%+ on every grade.
06Software updates
The A15 5G launched on Android 14 and GSMArena lists upgrades to Android 16 with up to four major OS updates. endoflife.date puts Samsung's end of security support at about December 2028, so it still has two years or so to run.
