Samsung launches the Galaxy A80 with Rotating Triple lens camera

Samsung is really getting serious with their Galaxy A line as the company has unveiled another Galaxy A smartphone and this time, it’s quite unique as this features a mechanical sliding mechanism for the camera and also a rotating camera. But of course, the smartphone will not lack in the features as this one got a new chipset inside and of course, a new infinity display with no notch.

The Samsung Galaxy A80 features a new infinity display and it doesn’t have a notch thanks to the rotating camera of the smartphone. And this is no ordinary display as this one is an immersive 6.7-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Display which is really vivid.

The 48MP rotating triple camera

One of the main features of the Samsung Galaxy A80 is the rotating camera. It uses a rotating mechanism that easily switches from rear camera to selfie camera. The triple lens camera of the smartphone is comprised of a 48MP f2.0 rear camera, 8MP f2.2 ultra wide-angle lens, and a 3D depth camera. One of the features that I liked on the smartphone is the live focus video which is made possible by the 3D Depth camera.

Powerful hardware

The Samsung Galaxy A80 features the latest Snapdragon 7150 chipset which is still new and then there’s the 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. Unfortunately, there’s no way to expand the storage as the Galaxy A80 doesn’t support MicroSD card slot.
