Samsung on Thursday at its Samsung Forum event in Kuala Lumpur launched its Galaxy A5 (2016) and the Galaxy A7 (2016) smartphones for India priced at Rs. 29,400 and Rs. 33,400 respectively. The dual-SIM supporting 4G LTE smartphones will be available in the country via Snapdeal and offline retailers starting February 15. Both run Android 5.1 Lollipop out-of-the-box.
It is worth mentioning that the South Korean tech giant first launched the duo in China in December last year. The company in December also launched its Galaxy A3 (2016), but did not detail plans to introduce it in India just yet. Samsung also announced a bundled Airtel data plan, with up to 30GB of data free for six months.
The Samsung Galaxy A7 (2016) features a 5.5-inch full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution Super Amoled display and packs an octa-core Exynos SoC (unspecified model) clocked at 1.6GHz, clubbed with 3GB of RAM.
