Just a break from depression of One UI update, why is it that A series users use 5G at the end of their device names like there are non 5G models of those devices...... just wondering 😏😅?????
Hi yes — this is something a lot of people notice with Samsung’s A series naming. Here’s the breakdown:
Samsung usually releases two variants of a given A-series phone: one with 4G LTE and one with 5G. To differentiate them in the market, they add “5G” at the end of the model name. For example:
Samsung Galaxy A34 → the regular 4G version
Samsung Galaxy A34 5G → the 5G-capable version
The reason is mostly marketing and clarity: 5G is a big selling point, so Samsung wants users to immediately see which model supports it.
Sometimes the non-5G version is released in specific regions where 5G networks aren’t widespread, or it’s cheaper for budget-conscious buyers. The hardware is slightly different too — the 5G model usually has a newer processor that supports 5G, whereas the 4G model has a less expensive chipset.
So basically, the “5G” tag isn’t just for show; it actually tells you the connectivity type and some hardware differences.
Very good point. 🤝 I was going to outline a few stuff but you seemed to say them and also say more to that. I also just learnt from your comment. Thank you. 🙏
