Samsung to kill flagship Galaxy A series smartphone in 2023! Good for Oppo, Vivo?
Samsung could kill its flagship Galaxy A series smartphone in 2023. Based on fresh rumours, it is said that Samsung may no longer launch a Galaxy A series device sitting above the upcoming Galaxy A54. Hence, there will be no Galaxy A74 5G this year and going forward, there won't be any Galaxy A7x series device.
