Samsung Electronics has unveiled the new Galaxy A18, bringing more capable performance, long-term reliability and core AI experiences to users. Designed around the moments that matter – from streaming content and capturing memories to getting things done – the new Galaxy A18 combines meaningful upgrades with the dependable Galaxy experience.

Making everyday transactions simpler, the Galaxy A18 features Samsung Wallet, an all-in-one digital wallet that goes beyond bank card payments. With QR Pay powered by MAE Scan and Pay, users can conveniently scan and pay at participating merchants, while keeping essentials such as movie tickets, flight boarding passes and digital cards accessible in one place. Every eligible tap or scan to pay also offers opportunities to earn rewards, making everyday spending more rewarding.

At checkout, convenience is just a swipe away. Users can swipe up from the lock screen to access Samsung Wallet, scan and pay, without the hassle of navigating multiple apps or fumbling through their belongings while queuing. It is a small yet practical difference that helps make everyday errands feel more seamless. The Galaxy A18 LTE also comes equipped with One UI 9.0, giving users an alternative to scan DuitNow QR codes directly with their camera application for quick and easy payments.

The experience is backed by Samsung Knox security, alongside six years of operating system and security updates for the Galaxy A18, providing greater confidence in both everyday transactions and long-term device use. Rewards points earned can also be redeemed for vouchers through Samsung Wallet or used to enjoy discounts when upgrading to new Samsung products, giving users more ways to get value from their everyday purchases.

The Galaxy A18 delivers an elevated smartphone experience with its 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display and Helio G99+ processor, delivering rich visuals and fluid scrolling for streaming, social media and gaming.

Powered by upgraded LPDDR5 memory, the device enables faster app launches and seamless multitasking, with quicker data transfer speeds supporting more responsive performance and efficient processing for AI-powered tasks, while reducing power consumption by 20%. Equipped with RAM Plus, which uses available storage to add on up to 6GB of virtual memory, the Galaxy A18 is designed to keep apps running smoothly in the background and enable seamless switching between apps and tasks. RAM Plus can also be enabled for an extra boost during activities such as gaming, or switched off to preserve storage for photos and videos.

The device also features a true versatile triple-camera system comprising a 50MP rear wide camera, 5MP ultra-wide camera and 2MP macro camera, giving users greater creative freedom to capture different perspectives. From expansive landscapes and group photos to detailed close-ups, the Galaxy A18 makes it easy to frame every scene just the way you want. 

The Galaxy A18 introduces more intuitive ways to search, discover and get things done. With enhanced Circle to Search, users can circle or tap content on their screen to search for information without typing or switching between apps. A new Find the Look feature allows users to search for an entire outfit or identify music playing nearby. 

The device now comes with multiple AI agents that help users move more seamlessly between supported Galaxy native apps, Google apps and selected third-party applications. Through voice commands or a long press, users can ask Gemini or Perplexity to activate supported apps, helping them complete tasks more intuitively across different services. 

The Galaxy A18 features enhanced durability with IP64-rated protection against dust and water splashes, while Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 provides added durability and scratch resistance to the front of the device. It also incorporates a glass-fiber-reinforced polymer back cover that is thinner and stronger, delivering greater strength while maintaining a slim profile.

Equipped with Samsung Knox, the Galaxy A18 also features Knox Vault for hardware-based protection of sensitive information. This dedicated security environment helps safeguard private data, giving users added confidence as they manage more of their lives through their smartphones.
