Samsung finally confirms that “Galaxy J is now Galaxy A”

All of a sudden in 2019, Samsung started launching some really good phones in the budget and mid-range segment. This is the same company that was criticized for its overpriced phones in the budget and mid-range price segment. Till 2018, we had the Galaxy J series for the budget phones, but now, we have the Galaxy “M” series for budget phones.

When the Galaxy M10 & M20 launched, there were rumors of Samsung ditching the “J” series, but the company didn’t officially confirm it. Now, Samsung has confirmed that it’s saying goodbye to the Galaxy J series and it is being replaced by the Galaxy “A” series.

We already have Galaxy A20, A30, A50 and A70 in the “new” A series and more phones are launching on April 10th. It cannot be said why the company decided to replace the J series. One possible answer could be the fact that the Galaxy J series phones were criticized for being overpriced and not value for money when compared to the competition. So, Samsung had to announce a new series to make the consumers believe that the company planned something new.
