Samsung had announced earlier this year, that it will be launching as many as eight Galaxy A series smartphones this year. The Galaxy A70 and Galaxy A80 smartphones were launched by the company last week, and now the Galaxy A40s and Galaxy A60 smartphones have been launched at an event in China.
The Galaxy A60 comes with a punch-hole display and has a 6.3-inch screen which has a 91.8% screen-to-body ratio, and Full HD+ resolution. It doesn’t have a speaker grill and comes with Samsung’s ScreenCast technology. The phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. The Galaxy A60 has a 32MP f/1.7 main sensor, an 8MP f/2.2 secondary sensor, and a 5MP depth sensor with LED flash. It has a 32MP front camera similar to its elder sibling Galaxy A70. The phone has a 3,500mAh battery and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.
The Galaxy A40s has a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED Infinity U display with Exynos 7904 chipset. It has a triple 3MP + 5MP + 5MP rear camera and a 16MP front camera. The phone packs a whopping 5,000mAh battery with USB Type-C port and has a rear fingerprint sensor.
The Galaxy A40s looks a lot similar to the Galaxy A8s smartphone, and the Galaxy A60 looks like a rebranded version of Galaxy M30 which was launched in India earlier this year. The Galaxy A40s is priced in China at RMB 1,499, while the Galaxy A60 is priced at RMB 1,999. Samsung has also unveiled the Galaxy A70 and A80 smartphones in the country at the same event.

Gives me a feeling like Samsung is launching phones hurriedly these days. Just last week we got the A70 and Galaxy A80 phones.
The number of phones Samsung is launching is already fixed. So, they will follow the schedule. But yes, they are definitely having a bunch of launches. Probably, offering variety to the customers.
