Pavel Durov Chooses Mid-Range Samsung Galaxy A52: Telegram Introduces ‘Stars’ Service and Expands Future Plans

Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, has made a surprising revelation about his phone preferences. In a recent post on his Telegram channel, he announced that he uses a mid-range Samsung phone, specifically the Galaxy A52 5G. Despite being a tech company executive, Pavel’s choice has defied expectations.

In an unexpected move, Pavel chose the Galaxy A52 to better understand the experience of many Telegram users who also use this device. He shared a video on his channel showing how well the phone held up in intense heat while he was residing in Dubai. This decision has sparked curiosity about what device he will choose next and what his future phone preferences are.

On another front, Telegram has introduced a new service called Telegram Stars that allows users to buy and sell goods and digital services directly within the app using a new currency called “Stars / Estrellas.” This feature enables users to purchase digital products like books, online courses, video games, and more using Stars. Developers can accept Stars for their services and exchange them for Toncoin (TON) through the Fragment platform.

With over 400 million users expected to benefit from this new service, Telegram is ensuring compliance with Apple and Google policies regarding the sale of digital products. The company plans to continue making improvements and optimizations within its app as part of its larger future plans.
