Seriously though, Samsung has a sleeker Android than even Google in 2023. You have to get an AOSP or similar os on a device to beat it. It’s been a long road, but the One UI is just better.
Aside from the launcher, they don’t change bits and pieces in the lover levels anymore (Knox & co.)? Don’t have to every google map a Samsung-equivalent, running from boot in background, anymore?
Disagree, work gave me an A21s. At least once a day I’ll be staring at a blank screen for 30 seconds before it shows me the buttons to answer a call but by then the caller has hung up. Also randomly it will turn the screen brightness down so low that you can’t see to turn it up.
My over two year old a52 is buttery smooth still I don’t see the need for a switch until 2 more years. There’s a bit of junk on it but doesn’t really affect anything since I never use it, it’s all just sitting quietly in a folder.
It has honestly made me question the purpose of expensive and fragile flagship phones that I’ve been using the last decade.
I’m sceptical. With all the added complexity of a foldable, the specs are probably gonna be below average to absymal. I’d love to be proven wrong tho.
Dunno man samsung’s mid range phones are exceptionally good.
Is that before or after you remove all the extra crap that Samsung shovel on it?
2015 called, they want their talking points back.

Samsung A series is almost unbeatable value no matter how you look at it.

Heaven knows how awful the A0 and A1 series are!
Yeah sorry bud, work put tracking shit on your phone.
No there’s no tracking, stick out of box experience.
Turn off adaptive brightness. I agree A0x series is utter shit but the A1x (particularly the A13 5G) is a very good low-end phone

I’d say you get better value and a cleaner experience with the lenovomotos.

The A series is an absurd value.
