New Samsung phones are only full price for about a month or two. Then they’re discounted $50-$100, and by the 6-month mark, they’re $100+ off. By the 1 year mark, you can get them for like 25% off. They have an insane depreciation curve, so if you can wait, I think that’s the best move. But I do agree that upping the price on the S24 Ultra for example was a tough thing to justify
@TechDaily well in South Africa, that's not the case, Samsung phones are too expensive. Even if you wait for a year, their discount is not much. But when comparing to other places, they are less.
I have the S21Ultra 256GB for 580 usd, in europe, last year. It was verified refurbished with the ability to return it in 30 days. I recommend everyone to get second hand phones. No moving parts, innovation has basically stopped for newer ones.
@@AnimationDunk my screen started flickering a year later starting from a small black patch. Just after the warranty period too. This was 2 weeks ago. Screen replacement costs as much as the phone. Just bad luck, i guess. Otherwise still runs flawlessly. Did drop it once a week since i got it.
Yeah new innovations not like in the past when phone only Ram 2GB and Rom 16GB NOw the different comparison Ram 4-12GB Rom 64-256GB like no different the latensi and display even camera result no different
Still can't thank you enough for the A34 review you did last year. I am still happy with it, I don't use my phone much but for the price, it gets things done without lagging. If the A35 and A55 get 7 years of updates, well unfortunate for me, but I needed a phone when my Xiaomi decided to die (again).
I also got my a54 last year because my previous phone the screen just cracked. I got the spider screen all over my phone so had to change it without being able to wait much time. And I’m also very happy with my pick I’m not a tech expert so I don’t need a flagship. When I got it. I was indecisive between the 34 or 54. went with 54 because of the camera design, I prefer the punch or whole for the camera than the water drop look. So that’s why I chose the A54.
I bought an s21 ultra refurbished in excellent condition a few weeks ago and it's working great. I updated to this from a 2015 galaxy grand prime. The contrast of the two was pretty wild haha.
After watching this video I went to the Amazon link in the description of the video for the 854 5G and found a refurbished one for $213 USD so I grabbed it and a fast phone charger and a case all for $219 at the check out after tax, Using a $50 gift card discount. 😁🇺🇸
@@halhuband3558 no I used to use TH-cam before they introduced adsa looking time ago. Then they added the ads and later introduced the subscription to remove them again so from my point of view TH-cam has always been free and I don't pay for it for that reason
Suddenly? I've been getting two ads for over a decade. I even got a two hour ad once. Watched the whole thing. Then I bought premium and it's great. Recommended.
I have a Samsung A12 coming up to the end of a 3 year contract. Still working fine, just had a security update today. Only ever had a couple of minor hitches, Bluetooth can be a bit erratic and had to dig around for a solution to a USB charging/tethering setting which had a mind of its own. Only criticism I have of all current smartphones is that nobody makes a decent smaller screen mid price device, I have small hands and really don't enjoy messing with these 6.5 inch screens. I would love to see a 5.5 or even a 5.0 which isn't a cheapo Alcatel or similar.
I picked up the s23fe on boxing day sale. $0 down $10 per month for 24 months plus I got a $200 gift card from Walmart. A hell of a deal I thought. I'm happy with this deal and the phone.
So did I love it!!!!! Can emulate games for the go now some physical and some I used to have and never git to play also has a great bass for music out loud volume and screen is great love the s23 fe!!!!!!! Def worth the upgrade over my tracfones!!!!! And can finally play dbd the blu 2 and 3 are still nice tho!!!! Cannot deny the s23 fe is more powerful!!!!! And I'm happy to have jt!!!!!
I just bought my first iPhone (13), and my last android phone was the Samsung Galaxy A54 5g and I cannot believe how much I’m missing that! I would definitely recommend that to anyone on the fence. I will be going back to android after my contract is up, for sure.
I am surprised you don't feature more the S22 Ultra with a 512 memory running 6.0 UI . I still think it takes the best photos because of the light metering in it. Would like to hear your thoughts on if you still think it's worth upgrading and why
The A25 8GGb RAM version is a solid choice. OLED, , Exynos 1280, 8/256 Gb, two OS updates (Android 14, UI 6.0 installed) and till januari 2027 security updates.
A25's a bad deal for how close it is to A15 and how overpriced for the specs it has. Its just there to make it seem like a15 is such a steal and a35 a good price to performance deal. A24 was good for its time though.
My 15 month old A52 still work great...got for 270 euros that time... Snapdragon is aging well with some great features like 3.5 audio jack and ingress protection... Decent cameras as well... Getting monthly updates, hoping to get A14 very soon... Happy 😊
Thank you very much 💞 I'm a student and I'm looking for a good phone can last with me for around 2 to 3 years I actually have a phone that last with me for 5 years it's redmi it's still good but I have a problem with the space and speed it's so slow 😢 So thank you for the advice ❤
I have the A52 and I would be very happy with it, except that I got the global version and the service in America is weaker than it should be. Got worse when Verizon dropped some bands in November
Personal testimony: I got the A54 5G around last November brand new. I like it. It works great. Does everything I want it to do. It plays all my games great, too, such as Call of Duty Mobile, Need For Speed, Black Desert Mobile, Minecraft, etc. I also like the premium look and feel of it, but I got a rubber casing that makes it look and feel even more premium to my hands. The only things that feel like a downgrade from my last phone, which was BLU F91 5G, is A54 doesn't have a depth sensing camera, and a slightly smaller display. Everything else is an upgrade.
And my only problem on the design its that it looks slightly deformed. lol 😂. The lack of symmetry is a little annoying.haven’t you noticed when you grab it. On one end is slightly wider.?
@@syliagray cant blame you didnt notice it till a video review mentioned that. Its not big deal but ughh its one if those things you cant unnotice once someone mentions that.
I just got it too love my s23 fe!!!! Clock tower 3 for the go in hd and a physical copy and siren 2 through emulation Def worth the upgrade from blu 3 tracphone!!!!!! Better screen too and can hear bass when playing music out loud and movies and show files 😀
Was contemplating between A34 n A54 ended up taking an Dual sim Honor 90 lite😅 it came with charger, bt earbuds, earphones , screen protector ,cover and dongle. I was convinced tbh
I upgraded from an A5 (2017), which still works and I use it to record phone calls which doesn't seem to work on Android 14 in the UK. Still looking for an app that does I looked at A34 or A54, in the end I got an A34 (8GB ram- 256GB storage) for £255
i agree with what you stated at the end of the video, keep 1 or 2 years behind on the release cycles. this is my mantra. I end up upgrading my phone each year and I'm sticking in the midrangers. trying all sorts of brands. but i find that I'm getting so much bang for the buck doing it this way.
@@izzydeji7470 Samsung Galaxy A series, can't go wrong. they're good all-rounders and they have an option for every budget. if you feel adventurous, take a gander at Xiaomi or Poco phones. take the Poco F5 (2023) for example, great bang for the buck. I bought one for my wife last year and its better than my Nothing Phone 1 (2022). We've also had Realme phones in the past and have liked them. The Realme 6i (2020) and the GT Master Edition (2021). both are still working fine, we handed them down to family members. I read and watch reviews before buying. I make sure that the phone I'm getting works in my region (some phones are international phones and support many signal bands, others are regional and won't work everywhere). Good luck looking, there are soo many options nowadays.
I'm not convinced that cheap phones can handle more than 3 OS updates. Security updates are more important and I'm glad that Samsung offers those for an extended period nowadays.
Exactly around the two year mark they start lagging and updates just make it worse, hence why I believe people should buy older flagships that can handle app updates
I have had the Samsung Galaxy S10 plus for 4.5 years, but it is no longer getting any security updates. I bought a brand new Galaxy ZFold 5 in November, but I sent it back in less than two weeks because it was a piece of crap. I was thinking about buying a Note 20 Ultra for around $400. I need a phone with an Spen, large screen, and storage. I don't care about the fanciest cameras or AI. Where does this phone fit into your assessment?? I put a lot of medical research data into my device, so some of the options will not suffice. What do you think?? I don't care about a few $, one way or the other.
I got a renewed almost new looking s21 for 250 on amazon, its specs are still great for most of us, and definitely enough to perform my daily tasks. I love it but I would recommend you get the s22, because of the processor and camera improvement, in addition of the extra year of major android updates.
It's specs are still better than anything at the same price except the moto edge 30 fusion viva magenta which was on sale for 279 on Motorola for a little while during the viva magenta sale. Picked it up instead and I'm stupid happy. Came with earbuds and the fast charger, plus the pixel experience on Motorola is awesome, and the screen is properly bright
@@veg8_A absolutely. Brighter screen, bigger, better camera arrangement, much faster chip, better battery life and charging speed, it's a win in all areas. Flip the 6 for ~150 and get a s21 plus for 200 or 21 ultra for 200-300 depending on your local used market
I'm currently using an A71, which I decided to get in favor of the A51 at the time because of the Snapdragon chipset. I wish Samsung would release an A75 along with the A55. I'm not a fan of the Exynos chip. I'm actually quite appalled that Samsung gets away with selling the S24 and S24+ with an inferior chipset here in the EU, for the same price (or higher) than the Snapdragon 8 Gen3 S24 and S24+ in other areas. Benchmarking comparisons show outrageous differences.
@Begeye-bh5ux I think you're right on the money. What Samsung doesn't seem to realize though is that I'm contemplating ditching Samsung all together for my next phone in favor of a smaller brand that offers midrange phones with a better chip. I can't imagine I'm the only one.
I just picked up an s21 ultra for under £300. The body may be a bit dinged and I do need to replace the battery for another £50 (but only take 30 mins to put it in), but it's still a top tier premium phone that's still getting updates til next year. ...(also the s21 fe is just an s21 for selfie fanatics)
I have A54 for like 9 months now and I gotta say, this is the first in my life I used an android that still works the same as when I bought it. Also I got it for 200 dollars brand new beacuse of a crazy carrier deal, the best buy or my life
Sounds amazing. My a52s felt a bit sluggish from day one and showed stutters and some annoying animation glitches after just a few months. I currently use one too and it feels a little smoother when set to 60hz. Mby just bc the frame drops arent that prominent... idk But most galaxy devices ive used did feel... meh. Even the s22 ones (exynos models) stuttered a bit sometimes, wich was really sad as they had such beautiful displays and all the nice things goodlock offers. The first one that really felt great was the s23u, my current device. Maybe i can test the a54 somewhere bc up to now, i didnt even consider it as the soc is technically underperforming compared to other, cheaper devices and is just marginally better compared to the a34, the better buy imo. But yeah, ive always had not sooo good experiences with the a series Also, the moto edge 30 feels amazing to use, is snappy and looks great - a bang for buck option imo I really wish that oppo and google devices would be easier to get / test here...
Just bought the S23FE as an interim phone. 480 bucks after a 150 bucks rebate and 10% lunar new year discount code from samsung's website. Only drawback is there is not vouchers to purchase accessories unlike the S24 lineup.
If your Samsung phone breaks down while under warranty you will have to mail in and be without around 2weeks if it involves taking phone apart, I have found out majority of Samsung service repair shops do not have capability, no more spending a thousand + on phones for me anymore
Weird. As here in Australia, the S23 FE is $899 AUD ($200 above the new A55), and the S23+ is still extremely expensive, selling at $1649 AUD, making the S23 FE seem like an amazing price for what it is.
I went to sleep with it off....next day pressed the button to see it still charged apps can run the battery low also there's a power saver to keep on 😀
My father is eighty years old. He is an elderly man and has a medical crutch. Is it possible for my father to use a modern smart phone Are there any problems or drawbacks Can you answer!
Absolutely, if you’d be willing to learn and teach him how to use it it could actually enhance his life greatly. Connecting him to old music and movies etc. Best Buy (Geek Squad) offers classes for free I believe.
Great vid, my S10 needed to be replaced but I wasn't in a position to spend another 800+ so ended up getting the A15 for 200 and I'm very happy with it.
I don't know who is safe to buy from on Amazon or other websites like it. I've learned the hard way that I can't trust reviews. I'm sure there are some legit sellers and I could save a lot of money if I could just figure out how to tell them from the shady ones!
I'll be checking out your recommendations. I have one comment to make. I bought an SD card for a Samsung Android, and I was only allowed to transfer 2 apps to external memory. So basically, it didn't do a thing to expand memory capacity.
I'm watching from the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G, one of the most powerful midrange phones from Samsung even today with that snapdragon 778g 5g chipset, very smooth and snappy with that one UI 6.0 skinned on Android 14.
I used mine for nearly 2 years before I started getting no sim card errors. That's the longest I've kept a phone in a while. Very good all rounder. I've replaced it with A54. Low light camera is biggest upgrade, performance is slightly smoother too. Battery a bit better as well but it is heavier. You feel that extra 500mah in your pocket.
It's good but the battery life is not great. So long as you have a power-pack with you or can top up its fine. Also I've never seen a more over saturated camera. Not sure if they fixed it since I sold mine but it was bordering on garish. Using a fade filter helped.
would you recommend upgrading to s23 fe? I like how it has the glass back and better chipset but mys21 fe screen looks way more premium, idk what should I do Lol
@@hooman_Zoh No you shouldnt, I actually do not think the s23 fe is a meaningful upgrade over there the s21 fe heck in some regards, it is even worse! you should prolly wait another and maybe opt for s24 or s24 plus when s25 launches and the prices for s24 series go down. The s21 fe will easily last you another year.
As much as I miss my a52 from a few years back, I'm happy with my 24 ultra because of the 7 years worth of updates; I think it's time that I chose a phone that will have a solid life span and I figured might as well choose the best of the best
Do you think in October of 2024 it's still the best option to get the 21 Ultra? Or is the 22 ultra or an older fold the best bet? Just wanna know what you think
i love playing heavy games on my phone and it's a bit sad that most of samsung phones in my country used exynos.. i wanna have S21 ultra as it's cheap and surely powerful but only US and CN has the Snapdragon888 on it.. 😞
I still have a Samsung S10 only because I'm a huge supporter of SD cards. I'm curious to hear, if anyone could choose between an s20 versus A54, which would be a better pick?
Help!! I am in my 80''s and have been using an LG Aristo forever. But now I must upgrade and am considering the Samsung Smartphone. I text, do banking, take few pictures, and because I live in the country, only use Tmobiles pay as you go plan. So it's only used when I hit town. Now for the problem. The phones that you recommend are huge. What I need is a small, but great quality Samsung that will have the "easy mode" feature. You have lots of great options but the phones are way to big to carry around. What is your advice?
id recommend an s23 if you can find it at a discount. 6.1 inch display, which is basically the smallest samsung makes at this point i think. alternatively, an iphone 13 mini is about 2.75 years old and still will be recently for at least another 2 or 3 if you're willing to go iOS
I'm your age. I have a large phone. I want a bigger phone because my eyesight is not that great. What about you? Right now I'm using a tablet because my phone isn't quite big enough although it's 6.7 in. The phone I'm using right now is the Samsung A715G. You can get a good used one for under $150. I'm sure you'll like it.
Love your technical information. Thank You so Very Much. Thinking upgrade from my Samsung S10E . Want to treat myself to a Samsung Z Fold 6 what do you think about the quality of this phone???
I have a S20 FE currently for a bit over 2 years now.I'm now having problems with the screen touch being unresponsive from time to time even after changing the motherboard and the screen. I feel like getting a new phone. It's a pity because the phone is truly a pretty good phone like you mentioned. From this your analysis, I think I might go for the S21 Fe or the S21 ultra. Which do you think is better. Or is there any better option from the S series within that price range. Pls respond. Thanks @TechDaily
If you want a Samsung that has a replaceable battery like the Xcover6 Pro and with decent processor and camera, you'll actually be able to use it 2 yrs later with a NEW battery....and they're cheap as they are the same batt that was in the original Xcover Pro phone.
Awesome video! Please weigh in- Brand new A55 or pristine S22ULTRA for just under 150 USD more? (From a legit online store with a one year warranty). I don't game and no social media (unless you count YT) But battery life is a big priority for me . I get battery anxiety lol, I'm using an S7 that I got used 2 years ago and the battery is kaka. I get 4 hours on power saving mode.
Now it depends what type of phone u want and at what price range but I suggest that for a little over 600 bucks that I buy the s22 ultra 128 GB but I there is a phone a lot better but it doesn't run on Samsung software the oneplus 12r which is so great that it has the latest snapdragon 8 gen 3 and it is way better then the 22 ultra in many ways like battery GPU CPU storage etc so I reccomend watching the video made by mrthostheboss on the phone plus also update me on the decision u make
A54 is a good all rounder and a nice upgrade from A52s. Battery life is good. I paid 267 pounds from ebay seller which is a great deal. Thought id got used but found it was actually brand new. I first replaced A52s with pixel 7a but that phone is fab but buggy and stutters. The battery is also no better than a 2 year old A52s. So i got the A54 which on paper and in reviews loses badly on performance to the pixel but in reality is far smoother in most apps when scrolling. In games it'll cope just fine and be smooth if you lower the detail a bit or use samsungs game boost. The pixel has a better camera but its not night and day difference. Theres sometimes too much HDR in the pixel that makes samsung look nicer. Not better objectively but nicer. Pixel is almost pulling out more detail than you can actually see with naked eye. Camera is definitely a nice step up on A52s especially in low light.
replace the A54 with the S23 FE and I think its a fair list. S23 FE u can find used for around the same price, maybe 50-100 more depending on condition or locked status. U still dont have to worry about paying for the gimicks as well as u get faster charging, better chipset, wireless charging, better cameras. I think between wireless charging, wider compatability, specs that will hold up for longer in terms of performance and better screen, cameras, and charging; the S23 FE would be a much better option. As of this comment time of posting, A54's run about 150-250 on ebay for used and 200-300 refurb. S23 FE's are about 200-250 used and around 300-400 refurb but you can find the S23 FE for the same and sometimes cheaper if you choose a locked phone to ur carrier. Also, alot of carriers offer the S23 FE as the free device trade in when u trade in an A series phone or Older S series (at least in my area). So I wouldn't call these features Minor or forgettable features. Not to mention stronger materials and wider range of accesories
Here where I am. I can’t justify paying for samsung phones at store price when other manufacturers offers the same thing at lower prices, even with the lower to mid range offerings. I want to like them though so I try to wait for extreme discounts.
The FE line actually started with the Note FE in 2017... Also, I think it's safe to say the A0 series of phones are for people that just want to have texting and phone calling and maybe watch a TH-cam video here or there...
For me, the 21 fe and ultra is probably the best reccommend on this video. They can regularly be had under 300$ for the ultra and around 200 for the fe and they are absolutely wonderful tlat these prices. Nobody with one of these has any real need to upgrade STILL. Along with the note 20 ultra, these phones have been absolutely stellar if you bought them at lunch to "future proof" as were pretty far into the future for a cell phone, and these phones are still absolutely top of the class in the budget and midrange
I have an A14 and it SUCKS! The camera takes photos but the quality is way under subpar with distortion and color. You get stuck on screens after tapping on an app which means you need to tap the back button, wait for a few seconds and retry opening your app. The finger sensor works as well as wiping molasses like poop off your tuchas with a dry papertowel. The lag time is HORRIBLE! About 50% of the time the finger sensor does NOT work. If you are slow to navigate through your phone, this would be a good fit.
Im have a Xcover 5 prived and a A52 4g from work, both are Enterprise Edtions and wil get support till Q2/Q3 2026. The Xcover 5 was €245 in late 2021 and the A52 (its from work so i did not pay) was €290. Hope to use them both till late/early 2027 💪💪💪
Current Amazon pricing for new unlocked U.S. models is as follows: S24 $859, S23 $715, S23 FE $549, A54 $349. That looks like fairly rational pricing depending on your budget although not sure why anyone would pay that much for an S23 at this point when you can get the S24 for just $144 more. The A54 does look like the value play here although I’m happy having only paid $399 for my S23 FE.
Samsung's standard pricing structure isn't terrible - their biggest issue is depreciation. They discount their phones basically right when they launch ("double the storage on us" promotion) and then right now, half those phones (S23 FE, A54) are $50 off. The S24 Series will probably be $50 - $100 off again in a few weeks, so you feel kind of yucky if you pay full price for any of these. Because of that, renewed and second-hand Samsung devices are worth even less. I mean seeing a used S23 be worth $450 is a tough pill to swallow after only 1 year. You can't get an iPhone 13 Pro for less than $500, and that phone is 2+ years old
@@neils.9846A large supply. Samsung sell phones at every price range, which is good for the consumer when buying however. It reduces the perceived value of the brand, hence meaning that their phones depreciate fast. Also their midrange/budget sell better than the flagships. So they discount their flagships, immediately fate launch , further decreasing the perceived value. Whereas apple sells a few expensive phones and doesn’t really discount them.
This is from 4 months ago, but I've been browsing phone reviews because I want to replace my Motorola G50. The thing is that I like Motos, but their policy about system updates sucks, and you're right, now I'm looking at last-season phones.
I had my Galaxy J3 for 8 years. The microphone burned out I just used speaker phone. It finally died. I got an A03s. Service was blocked. I Was told the phone store sold me a stolen phone. It just said " this phone is blocked" and had no service. 31 hours and 4 stores later I got an S23FE financed for 3 years $599. I feel like I "been tied to the whippin' post". Maybe I should put on Fillmore East.
as a flip user of 2 years, im suprised the zflip series isnt dis-recommended!! theyre the most defective malfunctioning phones ive ever used in my life
Of the android phones, which would be the best to have for demonstration purposes for people that are looking to switch to an android phone? It’s for my business use for demonstration use
I recently bought the Samsung S21 FE 5G with 256GB and I must say that this is an excellent device. With it's release date being so late Samsung has promised that the S21 FE will be receiving major Android updates upto and including version 16. This means I get atleast another 3 years of use from this phone. Considering I bought this used for about $250 that is crazy good value at about 25cents per day!
HEY i was thinking about getting this phone before i saw this review do you recommend any other phones that are better in this price range because im trying to get the best performance for like under 60$ roughly so
I have an S10 phone bought in early 2019 and I don't have a single issue with it. It works just as well as it did in 2019. And get this I plan on keeping it for at least 2 more years. And just for context I am making this comment in March 2024
My 2019 S10 finally died on me a few weeks ago. I was looking around for a new flagship to replace it, but I was insistent on having a headphone socket and microSD support. After a lot of shopping around, I finally decided that my best bet was another S10, the last flagship phone Samsung ever made with both of those features.
I have an s9 plus and due to it not updating anymore I don't get emergency alerts they sit on my phone but I don't get them, does the s10 still update?
TechDaily I am looking at the Samsung A12 to replace my Samsung A10 that i have recently lost despite just actually buying the Samsung A15. Which i thought would have the same kind of sim card/ micro sd card tray like the Samsung A10 and Samsung A12. But it unfortunately does not. What i might do however is stick a 500 GB Micro SD card in the Samsung A15 like i intended to and use it as a secondary photography editing tablet to go alongside my actual Xiaomei Redmi Tablet. As I do alot of street photography. And also put a 500 GB Micro SD Card in the Samsung A12. To put all the apos on.
I got the S21 Ultra, and I had to return it day 1. Edge screens are terrible for watching videos on or reading text right on the edge. Something I didn't think about so maybe someone else will realize this and not get it. More fragile and accidental presses are also a thing. Base S21 would be better option or if u want bigger S21+.
If you see this I need A5G phone for gig work like Uber Eats. I was wondering if I should get the A54 5G Or Galaxy note 10 + 5G. I'm doing this based off of the intense systems they have for GPS reasons. I am operating out of Portland Oregon what's your thoughts
If you don't mind the extra $80, the S23 will have a better battery life. Snapdragon 8 gen 1 in S23 FE is a beast, but it's power hog. The Snapdragon 8 gen 2 is a bit better while being much more power efficient. But I've been able to daily S23 FE just fine for my own use because honestly, nowadays, charging phone is not a big deal (you can charge while at work if necessary).
I'm rocking an LG Stylo 5. Lol. It was free when I joined Cricket. Had it for a few years now. Need something more recent but not sure what to go with. The S23FE was pretty affordable through them iirc.
Just got a refurbished S21 5G in May this year quite happy with it plus the price has gotten down since. If it does have problems I'll just get a S22 or the 21 Ultra
I Think In Between Galaxy A25 5G & S23 FE Is The Sweet Spot I Actually Have The Galaxy A14 5G & The Galaxy A54 5G & The Galaxy S23 FE I Want To Get The Galaxy A25 5G Cause Of Sterio Speakers & A Super AMOLED 120 Hertz Display
I am late to the party because I had been hanging onto my Samsung A70 , until that is until I dropped it and it stopped recharging , and then only started to work after I tapped it repeatedly on my hand , then have now gone for an A34, sure I realise that the Camera might not be the best , as I have seen many reviews saying just that , is fine for me and way faster than my A70
What do you think is the best Samsung phone to buy right now? Best deal? Cheapest price? 🤔

I think that the A34 was a good one that you left out. 95% of the A54 for like $100 less
Still rocking an A32 5G.
impossible I would like you to do a video like this on Motorola phones
Galaxy S6
Probably the A25 seeing reviews should be performance better than the A54 with a lot of $$ less
The problem with Samsung is that, their phones have become expensive for no reason. Im even looking for another brand that offers better options.
New Samsung phones are only full price for about a month or two. Then they’re discounted $50-$100, and by the 6-month mark, they’re $100+ off.
By the 1 year mark, you can get them for like 25% off. They have an insane depreciation curve, so if you can wait, I think that’s the best move.
But I do agree that upping the price on the S24 Ultra for example was a tough thing to justify
@TechDaily well in South Africa, that's not the case, Samsung phones are too expensive. Even if you wait for a year, their discount is not much. But when comparing to other places, they are less.
@@denzowarmbad5486I mean, it's South Africa 🤷🏽♂️. I wouldn't expect reasonable prices there for high name items either...
@alexanderrahl482 some tech is cheap. But phones are expensive even on Samsung website. But life is easy this side.
@@denzowarmbad5486 you should check out what they are in Argentina.
I have the S21Ultra 256GB for 580 usd, in europe, last year.
It was verified refurbished with the ability to return it in 30 days. I recommend everyone to get second hand phones.
No moving parts, innovation has basically stopped for newer ones.
Now got one on marketplace for 200 usd, it's the best thing to wait for these kind of things
@@AnimationDunk my screen started flickering a year later starting from a small black patch. Just after the warranty period too.
This was 2 weeks ago. Screen replacement costs as much as the phone.
Just bad luck, i guess. Otherwise still runs flawlessly.
Did drop it once a week since i got it.
Yeah new innovations not like in the past when phone only Ram 2GB and Rom 16GB
NOw the different comparison Ram 4-12GB Rom 64-256GB like no different
the latensi and display even camera result no different
I feel the Note 10 plus the Note 4 and the note 20 Ultra are the best ones
Still can't thank you enough for the A34 review you did last year. I am still happy with it, I don't use my phone much but for the price, it gets things done without lagging. If the A35 and A55 get 7 years of updates, well unfortunate for me, but I needed a phone when my Xiaomi decided to die (again).
They get 4 years of updates (+ one extra year of security updates). Only the flagship models gets 7 years
I also got my a54 last year because my previous phone the screen just cracked. I got the spider screen all over my phone so had to change it without being able to wait much time.
And I’m also very happy with my pick I’m not a tech expert so I don’t need a flagship. When I got it. I was indecisive between the 34 or 54. went with 54 because of the camera design, I prefer the punch or whole for the camera than the water drop look. So that’s why I chose the A54.
I bought an s21 ultra refurbished in excellent condition a few weeks ago and it's working great. I updated to this from a 2015 galaxy grand prime. The contrast of the two was pretty wild haha.
Where did you get it from, how is it so far ? I am thinking of getting the same.Thanks😊
does your phone support 120hz and is it really working on 120 fps?
After watching this video I went to the Amazon link in the description of the video for the 854 5G and found a refurbished one for $213 USD so I grabbed it and a fast phone charger and a case all for $219 at the check out after tax, Using a $50 gift card discount.

Why is TH-cam suddenly having two ads that you have to skip? I swear TH-cam hates me using it so much, I'm being punished.
Do u pay for add free ??
@@halhuband3558 no I used to use TH-cam before they introduced adsa looking time ago. Then they added the ads and later introduced the subscription to remove them again so from my point of view TH-cam has always been free and I don't pay for it for that reason
Because ad revenue is down and they need to put out more ads to remain profitable. My guess is
Suddenly? I've been getting two ads for over a decade. I even got a two hour ad once. Watched the whole thing. Then I bought premium and it's great. Recommended.
@@KaletheQuick i mean two ads with no content in between. Such as at 2 minutes you get a 20 second ad and at 2 minutes 20 seconds you get another
I have a Samsung A12 coming up to the end of a 3 year contract. Still working fine, just had a security update today. Only ever had a couple of minor hitches, Bluetooth can be a bit erratic and had to dig around for a solution to a USB charging/tethering setting which had a mind of its own. Only criticism I have of all current smartphones is that nobody makes a decent smaller screen mid price device, I have small hands and really don't enjoy messing with these 6.5 inch screens. I would love to see a 5.5 or even a 5.0 which isn't a cheapo Alcatel or similar.
I have a galaxy a12 too and it sucks that i'm not able to tap to pay with my phone, so for this reason only i'm trying to upgrade
same here im seriously considering the A54 5g
Google pay? @@Daisy-os8tk
I picked up the s23fe on boxing day sale. $0 down $10 per month for 24 months plus I got a $200 gift card from Walmart. A hell of a deal I thought. I'm happy with this deal and the phone.
So did I love it!!!!! Can emulate games for the go now some physical and some I used to have and never git to play also has a great bass for music out loud volume and screen is great love the s23 fe!!!!!!! Def worth the upgrade over my tracfones!!!!! And can finally play dbd the blu 2 and 3 are still nice tho!!!! Cannot deny the s23 fe is more powerful!!!!! And I'm happy to have jt!!!!!
want to get off the Iphone plantation and just looked if AT&T offers the 23FE and its off the roster lol' I'm crushed!
Samsung phones that aren't the main S series are only worth it if you get a good deal like that. Congrats man
Where did u get this deal plz tell me I wanna by 23fe
I just bought my first iPhone (13), and my last android phone was the Samsung Galaxy A54 5g and I cannot believe how much I’m missing that! I would definitely recommend that to anyone on the fence. I will be going back to android after my contract is up, for sure.
Which one is better
Android @@Meaterity
I got the iPhone 14 max pro and I miss my Samsung A54 too !! It’s an incredible phone ❤️
I am surprised you don't feature more the S22 Ultra with a 512 memory running 6.0 UI . I still think it takes the best photos because of the light metering in it. Would like to hear your thoughts on if you still think it's worth upgrading and why
Is the battery good?
No and it feels slow @@janishasler560
The A25 8GGb RAM version is a solid choice. OLED, , Exynos 1280, 8/256 Gb, two OS updates (Android 14, UI 6.0 installed) and till januari 2027 security updates.
what about the 6gb of ram
A25's a bad deal for how close it is to A15 and how overpriced for the specs it has. Its just there to make it seem like a15 is such a steal and a35 a good price to performance deal. A24 was good for its time though.
Januari... 😂
My 15 month old A52 still work great...got for 270 euros that time... Snapdragon is aging well with some great features like 3.5 audio jack and ingress protection... Decent cameras as well... Getting monthly updates, hoping to get A14 very soon... Happy 😊
Thank you very much 💞
I'm a student and I'm looking for a good phone can last with me for around 2 to 3 years
I actually have a phone that last with me for 5 years it's redmi it's still good but I have a problem with the space and speed it's so slow 😢
So thank you for the advice ❤
I have the A52 and I would be very happy with it, except that I got the global version and the service in America is weaker than it should be. Got worse when Verizon dropped some bands in November
Personal testimony: I got the A54 5G around last November brand new. I like it. It works great. Does everything I want it to do. It plays all my games great, too, such as Call of Duty Mobile, Need For Speed, Black Desert Mobile, Minecraft, etc.
I also like the premium look and feel of it, but I got a rubber casing that makes it look and feel even more premium to my hands.
The only things that feel like a downgrade from my last phone, which was BLU F91 5G, is A54 doesn't have a depth sensing camera, and a slightly smaller display. Everything else is an upgrade.
Thanks so much for this❤. I've been wanting a new phone that isn't too expensive, overrated and can play call of duty well so I think sold me a deal😂
@@Cassidy08Good luck! 😀
And my only problem on the design its that it looks slightly deformed. lol 😂. The lack of symmetry is a little annoying.haven’t you noticed when you grab it. On one end is slightly wider.?
@@sarizonana No I have not
@@syliagray cant blame you didnt notice it till a video review mentioned that.
Its not big deal but ughh its one if those things you cant unnotice once someone mentions that.
I just bought a galaxy s23 FE from MetroPCS in the US for $99. At that price I had to try it. Best purchase I've made in a while I love my phone.
I just got it too love my s23 fe!!!! Clock tower 3 for the go in hd and a physical copy and siren 2 through emulation Def worth the upgrade from blu 3 tracphone!!!!!! Better screen too and can hear bass when playing music out loud and movies and show files 😀
Is@@williamk7517is it laggy
hows the internet on it
A34 5G is quite standard and i think you should have recommended it
Was contemplating between A34 n A54 ended up taking an Dual sim Honor 90 lite😅 it came with charger, bt earbuds, earphones , screen protector ,cover and dongle. I was convinced tbh
I upgraded from an A5 (2017), which still works and I use it to record phone calls which doesn't seem to work on Android 14 in the UK. Still looking for an app that does I looked at A34 or A54, in the end I got an A34 (8GB ram- 256GB storage) for £255
A34🔥🔥🔥 ( I use A24 )
Record phone calls? Why?
@@falling4mE why not?
How good is it
@@lionel-messi-messi-messi Good for the money and my needs. The A35 mite be out soon
i agree with what you stated at the end of the video, keep 1 or 2 years behind on the release cycles. this is my mantra. I end up upgrading my phone each year and I'm sticking in the midrangers. trying all sorts of brands. but i find that I'm getting so much bang for the buck doing it this way.
What midrange brand will you recommend please?
@@izzydeji7470 Samsung Galaxy A series, can't go wrong. they're good all-rounders and they have an option for every budget. if you feel adventurous, take a gander at Xiaomi or Poco phones. take the Poco F5 (2023) for example, great bang for the buck. I bought one for my wife last year and its better than my Nothing Phone 1 (2022). We've also had Realme phones in the past and have liked them. The Realme 6i (2020) and the GT Master Edition (2021). both are still working fine, we handed them down to family members. I read and watch reviews before buying. I make sure that the phone I'm getting works in my region (some phones are international phones and support many signal bands, others are regional and won't work everywhere). Good luck looking, there are soo many options nowadays.
I'm not convinced that cheap phones can handle more than 3 OS updates. Security updates are more important and I'm glad that Samsung offers those for an extended period nowadays.
That's why people should go for older flagships
@thegreatone426 I did, got the s21 ultra few weeks ago refurbished in excellent condition for $300. It's a beast, love it.
@@kyles5513 is the battery life good
Exactly around the two year mark they start lagging and updates just make it worse, hence why I believe people should buy older flagships that can handle app updates
Watching on my A15 5G, I was getting tired of the flagship prices and needed a simple phone, this works for me
Thats good man
Tbh same
The 90Hz Amoled is a great add-on as well
Sir what do you think about regular note 20 for 2024?
I have had the Samsung Galaxy S10 plus for 4.5 years, but it is no longer getting any security updates. I bought a brand new Galaxy ZFold 5 in November, but I sent it back in less than two weeks because it was a piece of crap. I was thinking about buying a Note 20 Ultra for around $400. I need a phone with an Spen, large screen, and storage. I don't care about the fanciest cameras or AI. Where does this phone fit into your assessment?? I put a lot of medical research data into my device, so some of the options will not suffice. What do you think?? I don't care about a few $, one way or the other.
I got a renewed almost new looking s21 for 250 on amazon, its specs are still great for most of us, and definitely enough to perform my daily tasks. I love it but I would recommend you get the s22, because of the processor and camera improvement, in addition of the extra year of major android updates.
It's specs are still better than anything at the same price except the moto edge 30 fusion viva magenta which was on sale for 279 on Motorola for a little while during the viva magenta sale. Picked it up instead and I'm stupid happy. Came with earbuds and the fast charger, plus the pixel experience on Motorola is awesome, and the screen is properly bright
I have a Pixel 6, but I am just in love with the look of S21 ultra.. I am wondering if it would be okay to move to a S21 ultra
@@veg8_A absolutely. Brighter screen, bigger, better camera arrangement, much faster chip, better battery life and charging speed, it's a win in all areas. Flip the 6 for ~150 and get a s21 plus for 200 or 21 ultra for 200-300 depending on your local used market
@@Luke-qs2cg needed the push 😅😅
I'm currently using an A71, which I decided to get in favor of the A51 at the time because of the Snapdragon chipset. I wish Samsung would release an A75 along with the A55. I'm not a fan of the Exynos chip. I'm actually quite appalled that Samsung gets away with selling the S24 and S24+ with an inferior chipset here in the EU, for the same price (or higher) than the Snapdragon 8 Gen3 S24 and S24+ in other areas. Benchmarking comparisons show outrageous differences.
@Begeye-bh5ux I think you're right on the money. What Samsung doesn't seem to realize though is that I'm contemplating ditching Samsung all together for my next phone in favor of a smaller brand that offers midrange phones with a better chip. I can't imagine I'm the only one.
I also currently have A71, also picking it over the A51 back then 😅
I just picked up an s21 ultra for under £300. The body may be a bit dinged and I do need to replace the battery for another £50 (but only take 30 mins to put it in), but it's still a top tier premium phone that's still getting updates til next year.
...(also the s21 fe is just an s21 for selfie fanatics)
I have A54 for like 9 months now and I gotta say, this is the first in my life I used an android that still works the same as when I bought it. Also I got it for 200 dollars brand new beacuse of a crazy carrier deal, the best buy or my life
Sounds amazing. My a52s felt a bit sluggish from day one and showed stutters and some annoying animation glitches after just a few months. I currently use one too and it feels a little smoother when set to 60hz. Mby just bc the frame drops arent that prominent... idk
But most galaxy devices ive used did feel... meh. Even the s22 ones (exynos models) stuttered a bit sometimes, wich was really sad as they had such beautiful displays and all the nice things goodlock offers. The first one that really felt great was the s23u, my current device.
Maybe i can test the a54 somewhere bc up to now, i didnt even consider it as the soc is technically underperforming compared to other, cheaper devices and is just marginally better compared to the a34, the better buy imo. But yeah, ive always had not sooo good experiences with the a series
Also, the moto edge 30 feels amazing to use, is snappy and looks great - a bang for buck option imo
I really wish that oppo and google devices would be easier to get / test here...
The A14 down is problem is slow charging for a budget phone.
agree,very slow
True
Just bought the S23FE as an interim phone. 480 bucks after a 150 bucks rebate and 10% lunar new year discount code from samsung's website. Only drawback is there is not vouchers to purchase accessories unlike the S24 lineup.
If your Samsung phone breaks down while under warranty you will have to mail in and be without around 2weeks if it involves taking phone apart, I have found out majority of Samsung service repair shops do not have capability, no more spending a thousand + on phones for me anymore
Weird. As here in Australia, the S23 FE is $899 AUD ($200 above the new A55), and the S23+ is still extremely expensive, selling at $1649 AUD, making the S23 FE seem like an amazing price for what it is.
I got the S23 FE for $400 during 2023 Black Friday. It's been the best smartphone deal I've ever had
does the battery life last all day?
Omg I just got that one too Def worth an upgrad from blu view 3 tracphone!!!!!
I went to sleep with it off....next day pressed the button to see it still charged apps can run the battery low also there's a power saver to keep on 😀
My father is eighty years old. He is an elderly man and has a medical crutch. Is it possible for my father to use a modern smart phone Are there any problems or drawbacks Can you answer!
Absolutely, if you’d be willing to learn and teach him how to use it it could actually enhance his life greatly. Connecting him to old music and movies etc. Best Buy (Geek Squad) offers classes for free I believe.
I'm extremely surprised you didn't recommend the a34 over the a54, but I do see why you didn't.
Same!!!
He did mention the a54, Great phone too!!
Great vid, my S10 needed to be replaced but I wasn't in a position to spend another 800+ so ended up getting the A15 for 200 and I'm very happy with it.
50 more you could've got a s22 plus 249
Where the hell you getting that for 250
Gave my son realme 9 pro plus for school work. He took amazing pictures with that phone, way better than my a73. There are hidden gems everywhere now.
I don't know who is safe to buy from on Amazon or other websites like it. I've learned the hard way that I can't trust reviews. I'm sure there are some legit sellers and I could save a lot of money if I could just figure out how to tell them from the shady ones!
AGREED!
I'll be checking out your recommendations. I have one comment to make. I bought an SD card for a Samsung Android, and I was only allowed to transfer 2 apps to external memory. So basically, it didn't do a thing to expand memory capacity.
I'm watching from the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G, one of the most powerful midrange phones from Samsung even today with that snapdragon 778g 5g chipset, very smooth and snappy with that one UI 6.0 skinned on Android 14.
I used mine for nearly 2 years before I started getting no sim card errors. That's the longest I've kept a phone in a while. Very good all rounder. I've replaced it with A54. Low light camera is biggest upgrade, performance is slightly smoother too. Battery a bit better as well but it is heavier. You feel that extra 500mah in your pocket.
The s21 fe is a steal, I got one for my uncle for under 300 towards the end of 2022 which was a huge upgrade over his broken down A10e.
It's good but the battery life is not great. So long as you have a power-pack with you or can top up its fine. Also I've never seen a more over saturated camera. Not sure if they fixed it since I sold mine but it was bordering on garish. Using a fade filter helped.
Finally the S21 FE gets its spotlight
would you recommend upgrading to s23 fe? I like how it has the glass back and better chipset but mys21 fe screen looks way more premium, idk what should I do Lol
@@hooman_Zoh No you shouldnt, I actually do not think the s23 fe is a meaningful upgrade over there the s21 fe heck in some regards, it is even worse! you should prolly wait another and maybe opt for s24 or s24 plus when s25 launches and the prices for s24 series go down. The s21 fe will easily last you another year.
@hooman_Zoh no, I think the s23 is a better buy since it is cheaper and better than that phone
As much as I miss my a52 from a few years back, I'm happy with my 24 ultra because of the 7 years worth of updates; I think it's time that I chose a phone that will have a solid life span and I figured might as well choose the best of the best
Does any new device have a headphone jack?
Does an upgrade from A71 to A545G make sense?
The Google pixel 6 pro is around 200 on eBay and the pixel 6 is 170 id recommended those
I literally wanted to see s21 ultra on this list and it was the best buy. Thanks for confirming my decision.
Do you think in October of 2024 it's still the best option to get the 21 Ultra? Or is the 22 ultra or an older fold the best bet? Just wanna know what you think
i love playing heavy games on my phone and it's a bit sad that most of samsung phones in my country used exynos.. i wanna have S21 ultra as it's cheap and surely powerful but only US and CN has the Snapdragon888 on it.. 😞
I still have a Samsung S10 only because I'm a huge supporter of SD cards. I'm curious to hear, if anyone could choose between an s20 versus A54, which would be a better pick?
Which International Unlocked Samsung in the A series is good?
Help!! I am in my 80''s and have been using an LG Aristo forever. But now I must upgrade and am considering the Samsung Smartphone. I text, do banking, take few pictures, and because I live in the country, only use Tmobiles pay as you go plan. So it's only used when I hit town. Now for the problem. The phones that you recommend are huge. What I need is a small, but great quality Samsung that will have the "easy mode" feature. You have lots of great options but the phones are way to big to carry around. What is your advice?
Budget Sir....
get n apple watch or something
id recommend an s23 if you can find it at a discount. 6.1 inch display, which is basically the smallest samsung makes at this point i think. alternatively, an iphone 13 mini is about 2.75 years old and still will be recently for at least another 2 or 3 if you're willing to go iOS
You can get the s10e. Has the smallest screen at 5.8.
I'm your age. I have a large phone. I want a bigger phone because my eyesight is not that great. What about you? Right now I'm using a tablet because my phone isn't quite big enough although it's 6.7 in.
The phone I'm using right now is the Samsung A715G.
You can get a good used one for under $150.
I'm sure you'll like it.
I really want the 21 over the 21FE cause it's smaller and more premium, do you think it's still worth it in 2024?
I got the 21 ultra a few weeks ago. I'd say spend a little more and get the better phone because this phone is a beast, and still getting updates.
Love your technical information. Thank You so Very Much. Thinking upgrade from my Samsung S10E . Want to treat myself to a Samsung Z Fold 6 what do you think about the quality of this phone???
I bought a good as new, refurbished s20fe for $186 just last year and am loving it
I have a S20 FE currently for a bit over 2 years now.I'm now having problems with the screen touch being unresponsive from time to time even after changing the motherboard and the screen.
I feel like getting a new phone. It's a pity because the phone is truly a pretty good phone like you mentioned.
From this your analysis, I think I might go for the S21 Fe or the S21 ultra. Which do you think is better. Or is there any better option from the S series within that price range.
Pls respond. Thanks @TechDaily
Dont get the a15, it sucks. It is slow. The screen is too sensitive, when in my pocket, it easily goes to the emergency call screen.
What are these features i keep hearing about?
If you want a Samsung that has a replaceable battery like the Xcover6 Pro and with decent processor and camera, you'll actually be able to use it 2 yrs later with a NEW battery....and they're cheap as they are the same batt that was in the original Xcover Pro phone.
Awesome video! Please weigh in- Brand new A55 or pristine S22ULTRA for just under 150 USD more? (From a legit online store with a one year warranty).
I don't game and no social media (unless you count YT) But battery life is a big priority for me .
I get battery anxiety lol, I'm using an S7 that I got used 2 years ago and the battery is kaka. I get 4 hours on power saving mode.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. What would be the best phone to upgrade to? Not considering the price.
Now it depends what type of phone u want and at what price range but I suggest that for a little over 600 bucks that I buy the s22 ultra 128 GB but I there is a phone a lot better but it doesn't run on Samsung software the oneplus 12r which is so great that it has the latest snapdragon 8 gen 3 and it is way better then the 22 ultra in many ways like battery GPU CPU storage etc so I reccomend watching the video made by mrthostheboss on the phone plus also update me on the decision u make
I like the high-end Samsung with an SD card slot, I just bought a Samsung S20 Ultra.
The thing holding me back from a non-flagship phone, is the cameras which is why I always stick with a pixel.
A54 is a good all rounder and a nice upgrade from A52s. Battery life is good. I paid 267 pounds from ebay seller which is a great deal. Thought id got used but found it was actually brand new. I first replaced A52s with pixel 7a but that phone is fab but buggy and stutters. The battery is also no better than a 2 year old A52s. So i got the A54 which on paper and in reviews loses badly on performance to the pixel but in reality is far smoother in most apps when scrolling. In games it'll cope just fine and be smooth if you lower the detail a bit or use samsungs game boost. The pixel has a better camera but its not night and day difference. Theres sometimes too much HDR in the pixel that makes samsung look nicer. Not better objectively but nicer. Pixel is almost pulling out more detail than you can actually see with naked eye. Camera is definitely a nice step up on A52s especially in low light.
What can you recommend with FM radio 5g external storage and 8gb ram or more ?
A25 🎉
replace the A54 with the S23 FE and I think its a fair list. S23 FE u can find used for around the same price, maybe 50-100 more depending on condition or locked status. U still dont have to worry about paying for the gimicks as well as u get faster charging, better chipset, wireless charging, better cameras. I think between wireless charging, wider compatability, specs that will hold up for longer in terms of performance and better screen, cameras, and charging; the S23 FE would be a much better option. As of this comment time of posting, A54's run about 150-250 on ebay for used and 200-300 refurb. S23 FE's are about 200-250 used and around 300-400 refurb but you can find the S23 FE for the same and sometimes cheaper if you choose a locked phone to ur carrier. Also, alot of carriers offer the S23 FE as the free device trade in when u trade in an A series phone or Older S series (at least in my area). So I wouldn't call these features Minor or forgettable features. Not to mention stronger materials and wider range of accesories
Here where I am. I can’t justify paying for samsung phones at store price when other manufacturers offers the same thing at lower prices, even with the lower to mid range offerings. I want to like them though so I try to wait for extreme discounts.
Here in the U.S., we have no "other" option for Android devices really lol
@@TechDailyyeah those "other" options are typically Chinese phone brands, and knowing what happened to Huawei I wouldn't have thought otherwise.
The FE line actually started with the Note FE in 2017... Also, I think it's safe to say the A0 series of phones are for people that just want to have texting and phone calling and maybe watch a TH-cam video here or there...
Im getting the S22 ultra for 2024 christmas,im really excited
I bought a s22u last November for $600 in my area, and I am very happy with it. It takes outstanding photos that I could never imagine.
For me, the 21 fe and ultra is probably the best reccommend on this video. They can regularly be had under 300$ for the ultra and around 200 for the fe and they are absolutely wonderful tlat these prices. Nobody with one of these has any real need to upgrade STILL. Along with the note 20 ultra, these phones have been absolutely stellar if you bought them at lunch to "future proof" as were pretty far into the future for a cell phone, and these phones are still absolutely top of the class in the budget and midrange
I have an A14 and it SUCKS! The camera takes photos but the quality is way under subpar with distortion and color. You get stuck on screens after tapping on an app which means you need to tap the back button, wait for a few seconds and retry opening your app. The finger sensor works as well as wiping molasses like poop off your tuchas with a dry papertowel. The lag time is HORRIBLE! About 50% of the time the finger sensor does NOT work. If you are slow to navigate through your phone, this would be a good fit.
Problem is, when you go to a store, all they have is the flagship and maybe one midrange phone
Don't go to the Store, go to the websites That is where Your best deals are My friend
Yup, when the Galaxy S10 was about to launch I bought a brand new S8 Plus at a very steep discount!
Im have a Xcover 5 prived and a A52 4g from work, both are Enterprise Edtions and wil get support till Q2/Q3 2026. The Xcover 5 was €245 in late 2021 and the A52 (its from work so i did not pay) was €290. Hope to use them both till late/early 2027 💪💪💪
Current Amazon pricing for new unlocked U.S. models is as follows: S24 $859, S23 $715, S23 FE $549, A54 $349. That looks like fairly rational pricing depending on your budget although not sure why anyone would pay that much for an S23 at this point when you can get the S24 for just $144 more. The A54 does look like the value play here although I’m happy having only paid $399 for my S23 FE.
Samsung's standard pricing structure isn't terrible - their biggest issue is depreciation. They discount their phones basically right when they launch ("double the storage on us" promotion) and then right now, half those phones (S23 FE, A54) are $50 off. The S24 Series will probably be $50 - $100 off again in a few weeks, so you feel kind of yucky if you pay full price for any of these. Because of that, renewed and second-hand Samsung devices are worth even less. I mean seeing a used S23 be worth $450 is a tough pill to swallow after only 1 year. You can't get an iPhone 13 Pro for less than $500, and that phone is 2+ years old
What's the cause of that amount of depreciation? Why does apple. Not have same issues ?
@@neils.9846A large supply. Samsung sell phones at every price range, which is good for the consumer when buying however. It reduces the perceived value of the brand, hence meaning that their phones depreciate fast. Also their midrange/budget sell better than the flagships. So they discount their flagships, immediately fate launch , further decreasing the perceived value. Whereas apple sells a few expensive phones and doesn’t really discount them.
This is from 4 months ago, but I've been browsing phone reviews because I want to replace my Motorola G50. The thing is that I like Motos, but their policy about system updates sucks, and you're right, now I'm looking at last-season phones.
I had my Galaxy J3 for 8 years. The microphone burned out I just used speaker phone. It finally died. I got an A03s. Service was blocked. I Was told the phone store sold me a stolen phone. It just said " this phone is blocked" and had no service. 31 hours and 4 stores later I got an S23FE financed for 3 years $599. I feel like I "been tied to the whippin' post". Maybe I should put on Fillmore East.
as a flip user of 2 years, im suprised the zflip series isnt dis-recommended!! theyre the most defective malfunctioning phones ive ever used in my life
Of the android phones, which would be the best to have for demonstration purposes for people that are looking to switch to an android phone? It’s for my business use for demonstration use
Please tell me which is the best of all
Thanks for this video. Sure helps one decide faster
I recently bought the Samsung S21 FE 5G with 256GB and I must say that this is an excellent device. With it's release date being so late Samsung has promised that the S21 FE will be receiving major Android updates upto and including version 16. This means I get atleast another 3 years of use from this phone. Considering I bought this used for about $250 that is crazy good value at about 25cents per day!
HEY i was thinking about getting this phone before i saw this review do you recommend any other phones that are better in this price range because im trying to get the best performance for like under 60$ roughly so
If I want to buy S21 ultra, please suggest me something.
I used the s21 FE for 2 years wouldnt recomend it to any one bad battery over heat !!!
I bought last year Galaxy A14 and is very simple but works fine, the only issue is trying to find an inhalambric charger for it......
Something is wrong with this video, the resolution is 480 or so regardless of what setting you put it on
Got my s21 ultra when it was going out of stock for the s22s but still going great. Not gonna look for a phone for the next few years
I have an S10 phone bought in early 2019 and I don't have a single issue with it. It works just as well as it did in 2019. And get this I plan on keeping it for at least 2 more years. And just for context I am making this comment in March 2024
My 2019 S10 finally died on me a few weeks ago. I was looking around for a new flagship to replace it, but I was insistent on having a headphone socket and microSD support. After a lot of shopping around, I finally decided that my best bet was another S10, the last flagship phone Samsung ever made with both of those features.
I have an s9 plus and due to it not updating anymore I don't get emergency alerts they sit on my phone but I don't get them, does the s10 still update?
TechDaily I am looking at the Samsung A12 to replace my Samsung A10 that i have recently lost despite just actually buying the Samsung A15.
Which i thought would have the same kind of sim card/ micro sd card tray like the Samsung A10 and Samsung A12. But it unfortunately does not.
What i might do however is stick a 500 GB Micro SD card in the Samsung A15 like i intended to and use it as a secondary photography editing tablet to go alongside my actual Xiaomei Redmi Tablet. As I do alot of street photography.
And also put a 500 GB Micro SD Card in the Samsung A12. To put all the apos on.
I got the S21 Ultra, and I had to return it day 1. Edge screens are terrible for watching videos on or reading text right on the edge. Something I didn't think about so maybe someone else will realize this and not get it. More fragile and accidental presses are also a thing. Base S21 would be better option or if u want bigger S21+.
Don't buy edge phones. I had Note 20 ultra. The screen protector peels off and it will crack even with screen protectors.
If you see this I need A5G phone for gig work like Uber Eats. I was wondering if I should get the A54 5G Or Galaxy note 10 + 5G. I'm doing this based off of the intense systems they have for GPS reasons. I am operating out of Portland Oregon what's your thoughts
Watching this on A73 5g ❤
But i would recommend A54 5G to buy
I just bought the S21 FE for $270, its a great phone overall.. thinking about upgrading to S23 FE dont know if its worth it..
Quick question! $563.41 for a Samsung s23fe or $640.13 for a Samsung s23?
For that price difference, I would actually just get the regular flagship S23 for $640. The FE has a few too many compromises this year by comparison.
If you don't mind the extra $80, the S23 will have a better battery life. Snapdragon 8 gen 1 in S23 FE is a beast, but it's power hog. The Snapdragon 8 gen 2 is a bit better while being much more power efficient.
But I've been able to daily S23 FE just fine for my own use because honestly, nowadays, charging phone is not a big deal (you can charge while at work if necessary).
I'm rocking an LG Stylo 5. Lol. It was free when I joined Cricket. Had it for a few years now. Need something more recent but not sure what to go with. The S23FE was pretty affordable through them iirc.
Great review I'm looking at the a34 or a53 for a cheep reliable phone.
Just got a refurbished S21 5G in May this year quite happy with it plus the price has gotten down since. If it does have problems I'll just get a S22 or the 21 Ultra
Is “happy mod”good to install in Samsung?
Thanks for this. Commentary that includes the depreciation of old models are the most useful.
I Think In Between Galaxy A25 5G & S23 FE Is The Sweet Spot I Actually Have The Galaxy A14 5G & The Galaxy A54 5G & The Galaxy S23 FE I Want To Get The Galaxy A25 5G Cause Of Sterio Speakers & A Super AMOLED 120 Hertz Display
I am late to the party because I had been hanging onto my Samsung A70 , until that is until I dropped it and it stopped recharging , and then only started to work after I tapped it repeatedly on my hand , then have now gone for an A34, sure I realise that the Camera might not be the best , as I have seen many reviews saying just that , is fine for me and way faster than my A70
