Samsung Galaxy A30s

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The A30s is the phone to pick if the screen matters more than any other spec, because its 6.4-inch Super AMOLED panel is the real differentiator — at 720p it is around 268 PPI, not the sharpest, but the deep blacks, punchy colours and wide viewing angles of AMOLED make video and photos look dramatically better than the TFT LCDs used by rivals. The triple camera (25MP main, 8MP ultrawide, 5MP depth) is flexible, the Exynos 7904 is adequate for daily use, and the 4000mAh battery is a little small by 2026 standards but fine for moderate users. The catch: 4GB/64GB is the tightest storage in its class, and the phone is from 2019 — verify its condition and warranty carefully. The Honor X5c Plus is 5,000 PKR cheaper and uses a TFT LCD panel versus the A30s' AMOLED — the single biggest visual difference between the two. The Honor brings a 5260mAh battery (about 31% more capacity), a 50MP main camera, a Helio G81 that outruns the A30s' Exynos 7904, and 128GB of storage against 64GB. The A30s counters with the far better display, an 8MP ultrawide that the Honor's 0.08MP auxiliary lens cannot match, and Samsung's name. If display quality and ultrawide versatility matter, the A30s earns its premium; if battery, storage and raw performance at a lower price rule, the X5c Plus is the stronger spec value. The A30s is a 2019 model — check the IMEI with PTA's DIRBS and confirm the unit is not reconditioned before paying.
