    Samsung is bringing its low-cost 5G phone, the Galaxy A23, to Malaysia. The company announced the phone's pricing and availability details today, and early adopters can benefit from an exclusive discount.

    The Galaxy A23 5G is available in Malaysia starting today. Customers buying the 5G budget phone before October 31 get RM 300 ($65) off the retail price. The Galaxy A23 5G normally costs RM 1,399 ($300), but early buyers can acquire the phone for RM 1,099 ($236).

    What can you get for the relatively-low price?

    Samsung is offering the Galaxy A23 5G with one memory configuration featuring 8GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage. Customers can pick from three color options: black, light blue, and orange.

    The phone has a microSD card slot capable of reading up to 1TB of external storage and is powered by the Snapdragon 695 chipset. The SoC drives a 6.6-inch PLS LCD FHD+ Infinity-V panel with a refresh rate of 120Hz.

    The Infinity-V notch holds an 8MP camera. The primary camera system located on the back of the phone comprises four sensors: a 50MP wide shooter with OIS (optical image stabilization), a 5MP ultra-wide sensor, and 2MP depth and macro cameras.

    All of the components rely on a 5,000mAh battery with 25W fast charging. The phone also has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and additional features such as Dolby Atmos, Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Wi-Fi Direct, and Android 12.
