The hype from Samsung’s <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/samsung-announces-a-host-of-5g-ready-smartphones-ahead-of-the-mobile-world-congress-2019/articleshow/68091711.cms">announcement</a> of their 5G-ready smartphones at the Unpacked 2019 is still trending. Now the company’s gone a step further to unveil the Samsung Galaxy A50 and A30 at the Mobile World Congress 2019. It <a href="https://techaeris.com/2019/02/25/mwc-2019-the-samsung-galaxy-a50-and-a30-will-be-coming-to-india-february-28/">announced</a> that the devices aren’t meant for the United States market but focused on the Indian market instead with their launch scheduled for February 28. 
 
 
 
 
 <div type="image" title="a30" msid="68171052" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Samsung Galaxy A30 devices from front and back&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div>











 The Samsung Galaxy A50 will cost ₹19,990 for the 4GB RAM and 64GB storage model while the 64GB storage device is priced at ₹22,990. The Samsung Galaxy A30 will be slightly cheaper with prices starting at ₹16,990. Similarities Both, the Samsung Galaxy A50 and A30 come with a ‘3D Glasstic’ design which allows the outer body of the device to change colors while retaining a glass finish. They also come with a modest 4,000mAh battery and the ordinary notch has been downsized using a infinity-U screen on a 6.4-inch AMOLED display. And, that’s about the extent of their similarities. Differences The Samsung Galaxy A50 is more premium of the two sporting the more powerful Exynos 9610 chipset while the Samsung Galaxy A30 is powered by the Exynos 7885 chipset. The former also has triple rear camera setup (25MP primary sensor, 5MP depth sensor and a 8MP ultra-wide sensor) while its counterpart only has two cameras in the back (16MP primary sensor and a 5MP depth sensor). While both phones feature fingerprint scanners as a security feature, the Samsung Galaxy A30 has a normal fingerprint sensor located on the back of the devices. The Samsung Galaxy A50, on the other hand, has Samsung’s new in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.

 The phones are supposed to have a third counterpart as well, the Galaxy A10, but it was announced alongside the other two devices. Although the Samsung Netherlands has noted that the Samsung Galaxy A50 will cost 349 Euros (₹28,100), the prices of both phones will only be revealed at their launch in India even. If the two new mid-range devices are appreciated in the Indian market the it could help Samsung <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/xiaomi-apple-samsung-will-fight-over-india-as-china-sales-slump/articleshow/67488525.cms">regain</a> some of the market share that its lost to Chinese smartphone makers like Xiaomi in India. Despite <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/This-is-why-mobile-phones-in-India-will-get-even-cheaper-in-2019/articleshow/67526295.cms">launching</a> more mid-range devices in the recent past, the South Korean company has been struggling to crack the entry-level and budget-level segments of the market with Xiaomi offerings of cheaper phones with competitive features while also losing out to OnePlus in the premium smartphone segment. By 2025, India is poised to be the second largest smartphone market in the world with nearly 1,171 million smartphone users.

New Delhi, Jan 3 () Dixon Technologies (India) Ltd on Friday said it has inked a pact with Samsung India Electronics for manufacturing LED TVs for the latter.
 The company, however, didn't disclose details about production and other aspects of the partnership.
 "Dixon shall be manufacturing LED TV for Samsung from its manufacturing facility located at Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh," the company said in a BSE filing.
 Dixon Technologies (India) Ltd is engaged in manufacturing products in the consumer durables segment, lighting and mobile phones markets in India. Its diversified product portfolio includes CCTV and DVRs as well.
 "Considering the faith they have bestowed on Dixon by collaborating in washing machines, mobile phones and now LED TVs, we are hopeful that our partnership grows sturdier with time," Dixon Technologies (India) Ltd Executive Chairman Sunil Vachani said.
 The company also provides services such as repair and refurbishment of set top boxes, mobile phones and LED TV panels.
 Samsung had shifted its entire TV manufacturing to Vietnam from Chennai last year. According to sources, the environment is now conducive for manufacturing LED TVs in India after the government's move to roll back custom duty imposed on display panels to zero.
 Presently, Samsung imports its portfolio of TVs from Vietnam to India under the Free Trade Agreement (FTA). 
 However, Samsung declined to comment on the matter. SR KRH RUJ

Dixon Technologies to manufacture LED TVs for Samsung

<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Samsung">Samsung</a> has walked a thin line by pricing its new On5 and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Galaxy+On7">On7</a> at Rs. 8990 and Rs. 10990 respectively. The difference of Rs. 2000 is because of the 13 MP camera you get in place of the 8 MP on the On5 and 400 mAh extra battery. Seems too much to pay for? You’re like most of the crowd.

The other high level Indian executive in the company is <keyword id="210829" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Ravinder-Zutshi">Ravinder Zutshi</keyword> who is the deputy managing director of Samsung India. 
 
Talks about Taneja’s exit were doing the rounds over the past two months. However, he has not made up his mind regarding the next job, as per sources. 
 
Although Taneja could not be immediately reached for comments on his quitting, a Samsung India spokesperson said, "Samsung does not comment on rumour or speculation." 
 While Samsung has maintained its market share in the mobile phone business, the Indian arm has been facing pressure lately for losing some momentum. For instance, sales of its <keyword id="1896085" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Galaxy-S5">Galaxy S5</keyword> and <keyword id="1593765" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Galaxy-S4">Galaxy S4</keyword> models have been below the company's expectations. 
 
This was one of the reasons behind Taneja's exit, according to a senior trade partner of Samsung India. "There's huge pressure on Vineet to continue with 30-40% growth rate despite the market growth rate slowing down," the trade partner said. 
 
Taneja was also unhappy with the changes in the management of Samsung India, which saw him report to SK Kim, managing director (sales). Earlier, he directly reported to BD Park, managing director of Samsung India. 
 
According to CyberMedia Research, Samsung led the Indian smartphone market with 38.9% share in the January-March quarter, followed by Micromax at 19.1%, Karbonn at 6.9%, Lava at 6.1% and Nokia at 5.3%. 
 
Taneja had earlier left Bharti Airtel where he worked as the operations director for South India and Sri Lanka. He is a graduate from IIT Roorkee and did his MBA from IIM Calcutta.
