The Chinese market favors competitively priced, high-quality smartphones, and for that reason Samsung has been losing ground for a long time. The Korean tech giant is hoping that changes with the launch of the A series (Galaxy A3, A5 and A7), mid-range devices with premium build quality that are rumored to be priced around 500,00 Won ($475).

The A series features respectable specs and a similar metal body to the Galaxy Alpha and Galaxy Note 4. No word on whether the A series will make an appearance stateside, but its safe to assume we'll see some variant of it in the coming months. Let us know your thoughts on Samsung's strategy in the comments below.
