I personally think the S21 FE is the best, but I’m curious to hear what yall think about the phones in this range

    Pixel 7a. Don’t be stuck with one company! For high end yeah, would go with a samsung but value for money you can’t beat the 7a.

      I fully disagree, pixels are possibly the most overrated phones ever in the enthusiast community. Tensor chips + horrible buggy software are not a good thing. I’d say a OnePlus 11 is the best option if you don’t plan to stick with Samsung.

    I got earlier this month base S23 at this price point(510).

    I also saw a fiew days before Z Flip 4 around 500.

    These are probably the best Samsung devices you can get, if you find them around this price.

    Between 400-500 i dont think any Samsung device is that great tbh.

      Don’t know what everyone is talking about with the s21FE. I love mine. Great camera and tools. All the stuff you need for an everyday phone. Maybe if you’re a dedicated gamer or if you’re watching videos all day it might not be the best, but battery has been all day + for me and connection to networks and 5G is perfect. Great phone for the price.

    A54 is clearly a very good phone, same perf as the s21 fe, camera very similar, screen same (Oled from 2021 generation, son a54 have a very good screen), both are Gorilla glass, maybe you’ll juste loose wireless charge but tout win better batterie perf and 4 years or updates

    I love Samsung but only with snapdragon CPU. So s20 Fe it’s the best for me because for SD card snapdragon etc and s21 Fe second because it’s getting very hot very quickly after use games camera or heavy apps …

    And I think after the official release of s24 series the prices will go down and you have another great option. S23!

    If you have a phone to trade in and if you qualify for any offer programs (military, student, etc) then the S23/S23+ can be within $400-500. I traded in an iPhone 12 Pro($400 trade in) and got a student discount($150 discount) so I paid just under $480 (about 438.34€) after tax for the S23+

        The offers I mentioned are only on the website. And you go an S23 as a bday gift? Or you got it for someone else’s bday? If someone gifted it to you, why do you want to return it and downgrade phones?

    For EU Used: s21 ultra best, New: S21FE best

    Although I’ve seen s23 around 550€ at black friday which is within reach and so much better
