Samsung Electronics is set to launch the Galaxy A18 LTE, an affordable smartphone equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) features and a large display, priced at approximately 427,000 won. The device focuses on commonly used functions such as AI search, camera, and battery life, targeting consumers who want AI capabilities at a reasonable price, separate from high-end flagship models.
The Galaxy A18 LTE will be available in South Korea starting October 30. It will be sold through the three major mobile carriers as well as unlocked models, with a price tag of 427,500 won. The phone comes in three colors: black, silver, and light blue, and can be purchased at Samsung stores, Samsung.com, carrier retail locations, and online marketplaces.
The device features a 6.7-inch Full HD+ (FHD+) Super AMOLED display. AI capabilities include Google's Gemini generative AI service and Circle to Search, which allows users to search for information about objects and locations on the screen using voice or natural language.
The rear camera setup includes a 50MP wide-angle camera along with ultra-wide and macro cameras, while the front camera boasts 13MP. The phone is powered by a 5000mAh battery, measures 7.7mm thick, and weighs 196g. It also has an IP64 rating for dust and water resistance.
Mobile payments are supported through Samsung Wallet. Users can expand storage with an additional purchase of a microSD card of up to 2TB if needed.
The Galaxy A18 LTE operates on LTE technology rather than 5G. Samsung has priced the device in the low 400,000 won range while incorporating key features such as a large display, AI capabilities, camera, and battery life. Consumers can choose the product based on both AI functionality and their preferred mobile technology and price.
