I got this phone for like 150-170 NZ Dollars And honestly I chose this one because it was cheap but good for the price. Definitely worth for the price.
@@runitstraight8279 Hello, If you want a cheap but simple phone that runs well for it's price definitely get it. But if your a mobile gamer it is OK enough.
I've had this phone for about a year. I watch yt, do emails, shop on the internet, use Skype and video calling apps. I can also do internet banking and use all the podcast and media apps i want. I also use a high end external DAC/amp through the usb c port to listen to high resolution music with some expensive headphones. It works perfectly well for all those things. However, yes, I do notice that it's a bit slow occasionally and that can be slightly frustrating. But its really not that bog a deal. I'm about to upgrade to a 2 year old flagship because i really want an OLED and it would be nice to see what 120hz is like. Plus ill be able to get security updates for longer. Really though, if i couldn't afford to update my phone, id be happy with the A04. It works and really, a video you watch on a nicer screen is still the same video... Lol. So its just a bit of luxury for me to update. Thanks for the review.
You only appreciate Samsung budget phones when you get other budget phones. I gave my son a Realme C35 which on paper is better than Samsung A04. But the C35 - Can't get 4G network in places where you should. - Some apps just keep on crashing (eg. MS Teams, Edge browser, etc) - Text messaging apps becomes slow. So he is now using my Samsung A04 which just works.
I have an iPhone 15 pro but got this A04 for work, first time I've owned an android and I have to admit it's kinda nice, and especially since this is like the cheapest android I can only imagine how good a high end version must be
I used iphone 6s, 12, and finally a 13. However, once i've bought a good android, i sold my iph 13. Android is way more fun to use and comes with much more functionalities. Also, it Won't lose 30% battery health after 2 years.
A very good phone indeed, watching this content on my A04 5G with 4 gb ram and 128 gb storage I can confirm that this phone is quite the buy and worth your money as it is the best in its segment as Samsung just throws in reliable phones , I prefer this than any Chinese phones like OPPO or Xiaomi or Realme etc. I now have 6.0 One UI on this phone now!
Started out as a decent phone. Samsung has repeatedly broken my privacy and add settings with updates and new user agreements that popup on my phone and again open up to breaking of my settings. I have been meticulous about disabling push notifications from Samsung and apps that are affiliated with android and every update seems to break these. I very recently received a pushed Samsung agreement that would not let me decline or modify that apparently re-enabled advertisements by Samsung and I AGAIN had to disable their adds and app pushes after several weeks of dings and notifications that would not give me the option do load correctly and disable them until just now.
I can't use cheap phones I'll have a headache .I play mobile games alot an I only purchased Samsung S model phones .upgraded recently from my s10plus to s23ultra having a blast .it was an expensive purchase but we'll worth it .but at the end of the day u buy what u can afford.
I used it since its global release and you gotta listen to this. The only good thing about a04 is only its price and battery. Reliability and performance it shows is absolutely horrible. At least you won't get disappointed from the battery as the phone has cheap average screen and a sh8tty motherboard which doesn't affect that big 5000mah battery. Its system reliability varies by stress and usage but I've faced multiple system crashes. This is the phone for people who keeps their expectations low and use phones for basic needs like calling etc. If you play mediocre games often on phone, absolutely stay away from a04. But if youve decided to get a04, have at least 128gb storage. If you're looking for better phones i'd say look through Xiaomi phones such as Redmi Note series, speaking from experiences.
Ok I'm only 10 years old and I dropped my last phone in the toilet and my mom won't buy me one so I'm gonna save money and buy this phone and if you're wondering what I'm typing on is my younger sister 's phone

great thing about this phone is that it has 3 year android os updates at this entry-level price phone is worth it

I dont do much on my phone. So a higher value device does nothing for me. This is perfect. Great review
The phone is good enough for me and plus I can turn off the animation scale and it runs faster
Good to hear
Great review!🤠👍
Damn good camera for a lower price phone
Im glad im using it ❤🎉
Looking for a phone for my father, who just uses facebook and youtube outside making calls. I think this can be a good option
Thank you my friend for the great content that contains useful information
I'm shocked Verizon or ATT doesn't have it yet
I personally feel like they need to bring it in the US to replace the A03S
its around $80 in my country now,decent for that price but too bad just bought a51 demo unit for that same price aswell
A03 should be the new A04 and A04 should be the A03.
Im struggling with making SD card an default storage
Kev, bro, you forgot to mention a Samsung Modes and Routines feature (an integrated IFTTT). I Know, because I have that phone.
More reviews on samsung a14 please

Is this phone faster than the A03s? that phone is really slow with everything you do
Yes it's fast but it's just like 4 gb ram lagging when playing
Thanks for mentioning there's no finger-sensor!

iPhone 4 has geekbench of 391. Imagine how slow this phone is.
does it come with a radio?
Yep.
You never said what type of battery was 🔋 in the A04 🤔 is it a 5000 mah ? How long can the phone go without charging ?
it's 5000👍
Hi, nice review. Would be nice if you did a giveaway. Would really like the A04, i have been using the samsung a03 core for about 3 years now lol
