The SM-A500 is already listed on Samsung's mobile site, confirming the HD resolution and the fact that it will run on Android 4.4 KitKat. The design of the three phones will be similar to the Galaxy Alpha, which means they will all have some form of metal in their construction. Also, the A series will feature better front cameras than existing devices – we're guessing these will have a higher resolution than normal front cameras, like the 3.7-megapixel camera that will debut on the Galaxy Note 4.
All in all, the A series is looking like the reboot we have all been hoping would be coming to Samsung devices, with better specs for the price and a more premium design. Our sources say that the launch of these devices should happen sometime in Q3 this year, though it's unclear if an announcement will come at IFA next month (it likely won't, considering the Galaxy Note 4 will take all the limelight at IFA.)
Abhijeet's writing career started with guides for custom firmware for Samsung devices (including the original Galaxy S), and he moved to SamMobile in mid-2013 and worked up the ranks to Editor-in-chief.
