One of the most significant updates to the Galaxy A50s is its primary camera. It is now a 48MP sensor with an f/2.0 aperture and although Samsung hasn’t stated it officially, the sensor being used here is the Sony IMX582. 

In addition to the primary camera, there’s an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 5MP depth camera with an f/2.2 aperture. Both of these cameras use Sony IMX616 sensor.

The camera app features a dedicated night mode, best shot, scene optimizer with 30 presets and Super Steady Video mode. On the front, there’s a 32MP selfie camera with an f/2.0 aperture.

Now, the difference between Sony’s IMX582 sensor on the A50s and IMX586 on phones like the Realme X, Mi A3 or OnePlus 7 is minimal. Both the sensors have the same picture-taking capability but the IMX582 records upto 4K at 30fps while the IMX586 can do 4K at 60fps.

Samsung’s camera upgrades do improve the overall photography experience on the A50s. During the day, the camera created some good-looking pictures, however, the same cannot be said about its performance in dark environments.

The primary camera produces natural-looking pictures with a balanced and vibrant colour profile while it takes a bit of practice to nail down the shots from the ultra-wide-angle camera. This is also due to the fact that the ultra-wide lens doesn’t support tap to focus.

At night, the pictures taken on the A50s came out to be full of noise and even the camera app took a while to focus on the object we were tapping. Night mode inside the camera app does a better job in optimizing the pictures during the night and reduces noise. However, even that isn’t sufficient enough to improve the night-time performance of the A50s cameras.

Unfortunately, we weren't thrilled by the performance of the device, which was significantly below our expectations. The software, other than being riddled with bloatware, just seemed unoptimized for this hardware. Other things that didn't impress were the shrill single speaker at the bottom and the slow fingerprint sensor.

We think the performance is a significant factor in choosing (or not choosing) a device. In a market saturated with excellent alternatives, we can't see ourselves picking up the Galaxy A50s over the Redmi K20 or even something cheaper like the Realme XT. Display aside, there isn't any aspect of the Galaxy A50s that can compete against the Chinese competition, all of which do a better job overall.

Pros
  • Attractive design and sturdy build
  • Great display quality
  • Decent cameras
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • Sluggish performance
  • Too much pre-installed bloatware
  • Poor loudspeaker quality
  • Mediocre low-light camera performance

so lousy :(
