Hey everyone,

A family member of mine has an A51 and it has become quite laggy over the near four years of its lifespan.

I found a new S23FE for 250 USD and was wondering whether all the issues that have came up with it (battery, overheating, bezels, etc.) are worth dealing with.

No gaming, mainly web browsing and other light tasks.

​

Thanks!

    I’ll be glad to take it off your hands, should you choose to forego the offer with a little extra to cover the needless worry you have suffered . " Everyone has to be paid for their efforts or nothing gets done, properly"

    Does it get the 4 years software updates like the others in the s23 series? Then perhaps yes… But I usually spend a bit more to get a longer life out of the phones

    for $250 with just web browsing and texting? definitely worth it. the chip isn’t exactly efficient but it should be perfectly fine for that kind of usage.

    If the pricing is legit, as a user of the phone i could say go for it. The country where i live has fat taxes on phones and i got it for nearly 700usd. But i think the launch price of US is 600usd so to me it seems like 250 dollars is a steal. For the most part phone is great. I don’t mind the bezels at all, phone can get a bit warm but not hot, camera is great, display is amazing but battery life is not the strongest case. I usually get something around 7 hrs screen on time. I use it 120hz so if your family member doesn’t mind, it should last longer with the 60hz.

    So in my opinion you should go for it, i don’t think anything in this price tag can get any closer to this. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask.
