Features
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 TFT LCD at 720 x 1600 and 60Hz on the international model (90Hz applies only to certain US versions). It's an HD+ panel, so it's less sharp and smooth than the newer A-series phones.
03Performance and storage
The Dimensity 720 is a 7nm 5G chip from 2020. It handles messaging, browsing and video, but feels slow next to newer budget phones. GSMArena lists 4GB RAM with the 64GB version; RAM depends on the model supplied.
04Cameras
Samsung lists a 48MP f/1.8 main camera, an 8MP ultra wide, a 5MP macro and a 2MP depth sensor, with a 13MP front camera. Daylight photos are fine; the macro and depth lenses are minor extras.
05Battery and charging
The A32 5G has a 5,000mAh battery with 15W wired charging over USB-C. Because the phone is used, each unit has a minimum battery health at dispatch: 85%+ on every grade.
06Software updates
Honest answer: the A32 5G launched on Android 11 and was upgraded to Android 13. It's now a five-year-old design and Samsung's regular update schedule for it has ended, so we don't expect new security patches. We couldn't find a current Samsung update confirmation for this model. If updates matter to you, choose a newer phone such as the Galaxy A15 5G or A16 5G.

Who it's for
