New elegant matte finish?

Released in early 2020, we reviewed the Samsung Galaxy A71 and loved its beautiful design, stunning Infinity-O Super AMOLED display, versatile cameras and long battery life. At its price, we were hoping that it included wireless charging and a full glass build but unfortunately it did not. It is a great device.

Several months later, Samsung adds a new Haze Crush Silver color with a new matte finish as opposed to the standard glossy finish on the original.

It features the same specifications like the 6.7-inch Super AMOLEd display, Snapdragon 730G octa-core porcessor, Adreno 618, 8GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Powering the device is a massive 4500mAh battery with 25W fast charging.

Since its launch date, it has been updated with new features like SIngle Take, Quick Share and Music share that arrived with Samsung's Galaxy S20 series.

Price and Availability

The new colorway costs PHP 22,990 and is now available at Samsung stores, and authorized distributors nationwide. 

The new color will also arrive to the Galaxy A51 soon.

The device will be available in other parts of the world from September 15 for USD 199.95.

Samsung's Care+ protection plan can't be added to the Galaxy Note20 post-purchase

It seems like a permanent change this time

Samsung's flagships have never been cheap, but even base prices are now eclipsing the four-figure mark. It's no surprise, then, that customers often opt for the company's Care+ protection plan for a few dollars a month. Unfortunately, Note20 buyers are finding that they're unable to add Care+ after they've purchased the phone.
