Overview

The A72's real standout is an actual optical telephoto lens — 8 MP with 3x zoom — a genuine rarity in this price bracket even today. Alongside it sits a 64 MP main sensor and 12 MP ultrawide, making for a genuinely versatile quad-camera setup. IP67 water resistance, a 3.5mm jack, and FM radio round out a well-equipped package. The Snapdragon 720G chipset is now clearly dated, but 5000 mAh battery life remains strong. Several generations behind Samsung's current lineup, it's best considered secondhand or heavily discounted.
