Meanwhile, there has not been any official word on the Galaxy R series and we are not sure if the series is region specific or not. In India, Samsung already has premium Galaxy S-series phones, mid-range Galaxy A series and the budget-friendly Galaxy M-series smartphones. If introduced in India, Samsung R-series smartphones could fall between A series and the premium S series. Also, if rumours are to be believed, the R-series could be the world's first mid-range 5G phone. Samsung is looking simplify its product line-up and has already replaced its Galaxy On and Galaxy J lines with the Galaxy M series smartphones.

Earlier renders of Galaxy A90 had shown that the phone will be the first Samsung smartphone with a pop-up selfie camera. The phone does not come with Infinity-V or Infinity-U waterdrop notch, nor a hole-punch cutout on the screen. The phone is expected to come with FHD+ resolution, brand new Snapdragon 700 series chipset with 6GB or 8GB of RAM and at least 64GB of internal storage. The new Galaxy A90 or Galaxy R-series will likely ship with Android Pie with One UI on top. The battery capacity could be anywhere between 3,500mAh and 4,000mAh.
