Out of curiosity, how many of you own or know someone who owns one of these A14 / A13 / A12 phones? 🤔

i have the A13
Yea, quite a lot people. Especially the 50 series
As someone who works at a Walmart and sells a lot of prepaid phones, the A03, A13, and now the A14 are easily some of the most popular phones. The A03 can be bought for about $50, which makes it easily the best phone you can buy at that price point in the store. (Quick note, the iPhone SE 2 is also a big seller, cause you can get it for $150 on 2 different prepaid carriers, so that's pretty cheap for an iPhone).

@@Ben21756 It doesn’t work for those people. Arun clearly stated that people don’t keep these phones long and it’s absolutely true.

I work at one of the major carriers. The A14 is free with no down payment for everyone basically. The A03 is free with a couple months service up front on prepaid. And they're a brand that people know

I don't like changing phones so I actually hung on to my recent Samsung for 11 years !!! Just got the A14 yesterday and super happy with it.
Was that after getting the battery replaced 3-4 times in that timeline? As I couldn't imagine being able to deal with worse battery life in my oneplus 11 after 4 years which at that point the battery health will be down to 80%.
@@MrMega200 I still use an S5 I brought second hand a number of years ago. Spent ~ $10 US on a replacement battery a couple of years back and it still does a couple of days before needing a recharge.
Being an S5, it's a simple job to remove the aftermarket ~$5 US protective case, pop the back off and swap out what's needed ;P
And being in the trades, it's had many falls from height onto concrete. Still goes just fine.
@@MrMega200cope against me you mfs.
My Galaxy A3 2017 is 7 years old *and I never replace its battery* because its battery is non-removable, yet it's still running smoothly, its battery even still fine, even I can still watch youtube, editing videos on it despite stuck on android 8.0.
That's why I trust Samsung.
@@muhammadrizqanilmi1301 I sold off my Samsung because it was a piece of sh!t. It had half the battery life compared to new(recharging it two times a day), slow as hell, and not to mention the lines coming and going on the screen. I never treated it improperly and it was never used hard. I used it for about 3 years until I needed a new phone that wasn't crap. Your trust is frankly misplaced.
I used an a20 for almost 4 years and it ran like a champ. the battery pife on that phone was incredible. Ive since upgraded to an s23+
yoooo same
My friend just got the s24 ultra on an update ,I personally buy my phones outright so got the a 15 5g ,does everthing I need so unless your on a contract why spend car money on a phone.
I still have my s20 ultra
Going on the 4th year now
It had lines and had started flickering
Never updated e everything else works
One of the best things I did was stop buying flagship phones. For the first time ever, I bought a midrange phone, the Samsung A52S. It does everything I need and more, battery lasts longer than most flagships and I bought the phone outright rather than having a monthly bill
This exactly, I had big plans to invest in a flagship iPhone for the first time in my life, but life happened and suddenly I could no longer afford to. Went with the Galaxy A13 (was only $60 through Boost Mobile at the time) and realized I genuinely have no legitimate reason to spend well over 10x that price for a fancy S series phone. The A13 does everything I need it to do and more, and battery life is spectacular. I eventually had to upgrade to the A14 because my A13 fell into some pickle juice at work and shorted out, it's basically the exact same phone with a better screen, I don't think they updated anything else besides the software.
The only downside I've found thus far to these budget phones from a fairly light user like myself (mostly just use a phone for texting, calls, music, youtube, and basic internet browsing) is the cameras; they're pretty crap. Decent enough shots if you have good lighting; i.e. a nice sunny day outdoors, but the camera on the A13 and A14 might as well not even exist at nighttime or in a dimly lit room. I've never been a big picture taker unless I'm on vacation, so I can deal with it, but that is literally the only thing that could push me to spend so much more on a higher end phone.
ppi*
My phone is A52 and I have it for almost 3 years now and I can say that it still feels brand new
nah its just sthat mid range phones are as good as flagships from 2 years ago now instead of 3...and phones already peaked years ago so there's no need for anything more.
I bought an older flagship (Samsung S20 FE) and it was well worth the money. The IPD Rating, NFC, 120Hz, 5G, and better build quality was really nice when buying in 2021. I used to mostly get budget and midrange phones and while good, I would aim for an older flagship if it was close in price.
Big ups to you and the team, Arun. This is one of the most information dense videos I've ever seen, without getting boring in the slightest.
i got bored after the video
Came to say this. This is one of the most informative videos on the smartphone market I've seen recently. Most other tech reviewers only focus on iPhones and the US market, and pretend there's nothing beyond the S Ultra Samsungs and the Pixels.
not true, I was bored the entire video and he brought nothing new, all theses factors that he listed are well known. A13 or 14 are ugly and bad, if someone wants to buy one of the A series, he has to go for A52s or higher or A71 or higher. A14 best selling my A.S.S!

I had an a series phone couple years ago before it was stolen. The main point is also that the phone is lightweight. I was able to carry it everywhere without issues, and also do light gaming to pass the time. The phone was astonishingly light.
Clearly laid out information - thank you!
The difference between budget and high end phones 5-7 years ago was massive. Its either overall quality has improved so much you can't really tell, or the difference isn't as big as it used to be. Obviously it loses out in performance but it's still solid for the majority of people.
When comparing these Samsung models from one another, it really gets down to splitting hairs. The differences are subtle, almost not there, and yet these are far superior to models from four years ago.
same with GPUs
I got the iPhone X five years ago, and I haven't felt the need to upgrade until now.
Now, flagship iPhones cost twice as much. Don't see how that's justifiable, when most upgrades are negligible and unnecessary.
Yeah, as someone who doesn't heavily game on their phone, I've had an almost perfect experience on my A52 running at a constant 120hz. The only time I've had slowdowns or crashes is on large Google Sheets. Which is very unfortunate but my laptop also can't handle those especially well either, so I can't heavily criticize a budget phone for that.

I own an A series phone i.e. Galaxy A71, which is from 2020 but still works flawless!!! I'm very happy from Samsung and kudos to Arun for covering this underrated series.❤
Same here. The Galaxy A71 was a dream bargain.
i still have my a71 just incase but still a grate phone its just was. damged and was not worth the repair cost i got the a53 and s23+ as my daily drivers now

former a51 user, it works well, laggier than the phone i use rn (iphone xr, ik i downgraded) but cameras are very good but samsung sometimes edits it too much
tbh A71 is awesome

As someone who works in phone sales in the us, the A14 5G is one of the easiest phones to recommend to customers who want android and don’t want to spend and arm and a leg. They’re our go-to phone and it’s less than $10 a month to finance!
Oh yeah. Finance for a $150 phone. Fuck yes.
@@tapabrata561 When you have to work two jobs just to afford life and bus tickets, yes
holy fuck, these shit phones here in Brazil are expensive af
less than 10 dollars per month is so insane for me wtf
@@tapabrata561 they’re like $230 plus tax my guy. Most customers aren’t even cool with just paying the tax+activation.
As someone that works in phone sales in Europe, i always recommend a13/a14 rather than a13 5g/a14 5g. I dont like scamming my customers with worse phone for more money. You lose hardware and pay more for "5g" and the only benefit of the "5g" is that you lose 20% more battery.
I own a Samsung Galaxy A04 and for the most part I am satisfied with it. I am a college student and I don’t play games so I don’t need a particularly demanding phone, and camera feels more than enough for my day to day photos. So yeah I don’t fear being on the extreme 😂
Lmao that slow ass chip and a plastic back 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤮🤮🤮 cheap aah phone with that gimmicky 40 megapixel camera

I made the switch somewhat recently from my iPhone 6s to my A72, mainly because I wanted to keep my headphone jack but also have the ability to put in an SD card, because that was my main dilemma with my iphones, 5SE (2016) & 6s, I kept running out of storage 😅 and also I gre tired of Apple slowing down there older devices that I just quit it completely.
♡
So far, I am very pleased with my A72. 😊 it takes such pretty photos, & I really like how much quicker it is than my last phones 😅
♡
I just had to get used to the size since it's a big leap to go from basically the older iphone 5SE 2016 to a Samsung A72 😅
Yeah but u get to love the added real estate.
My A71 has been great since 2020 but it is about time to upgrade. Sadly the best phone with a headphone jack is a worse camera 😢
@@ConscientiousObserverso what would be the upgrade of the xheaper series as of now?😊
For me, my A72 was getting slow and lagging even if I opened a folder of my apps or swiped the notification panel down, I’ve had it for about 4 years and its update support has almost ended. The camera ended up being glitchy with all those features baked into it, and inaccurate because it made my face lighter. Was too big for my hands as well, so I now have an iPhone. Apple doesn’t slow down their devices anymore after the lawsuit.
A phone with no sd cart is like a dog without a toy😢
I work for a phone carrier in the US and the A13, A14 & A03S are big sellers because majority of the time are always on promotions, like if you activate a line you can get one for free or are massively discounted. The sad part is that when people complain about these phones, it’s always due to user error

This is one of better videos you made. Everything is explained very well. This is exactly how good marketing works.
To whom ever this may interest
The A15 4G DOES NOT have screen recording out of the box! Samsung thought it was a good idea to include this very basic feature ONLY on the more expensive 5G model (costs around 80$) more...
Now some people may say, its irrelevant cause you can download an App to do it. NO, its not that simple, the Apps you download dont record se same as the native app, especially over calls or video calls where the sound will be totally muted for everyone in the 3rd party Apps.
I think the ability to talk about something no one else would have otherwise cared about is a skill set within itself. It's that transition from being a channel that people go to for specific content to a channel we go to to see YOU talk about a variety of topics.
My prediction Samsung galaxy a15 will be the best selling android phone this year
as a proud owner of a14, it is really great 1 by 4 scale of the s23 ultra, i bought it in the Philippines for just 15k pesos (about 300 in usd) , the only issue i had was the software updates are often popping up and you cannot swipe right to it
I think you should start a series where you unbox an affordable smartphone from each company such as Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo, Samsung, Motorola, Vivo, Infinix, Tecno, Iqoo, Poco, and find the best one...
He actually have some videos talk about it

This is quite simply one of the best explanation videos on the Samsung smartphones I've seen. From the price structure to the breakdown of the processing difference this was an excellent video. I would have personally liked to have replaced my Note 10 + with an A series phone as I'm fed up of the prices on the premium S series, but I prefer wireless charging, so I may have to wait for the S FE versions 😉
Got the S20 FE about 18 months ago.. when you are on a budget but still want to get a better phone, it works perfectly. I know it will still work for a couple of years. And I do a lot of from phone working..
@Kath Ro i own 20fe too but i regret not waiting for the A series. The phone is kinda laggy if you play games for more than an hour sometimes. And i couldn't find a slim case for it.
I also have the S 20 FE, but I regret getting it in 2022. The Processor is not the best, the Battery is not that good anymore and the Update support ends next year. I really hope the S 23 FE comes and gets Upgrades in charging Speed, Camera.
@@jakobn2913 I think the new FE could be right up there with specification and speed etc. But it may pit itself against the A series? 🤔

I have used flagship Samsung phones since the s8. Two weeks ago I bought a Samsung A04e and retired my s22 that was heavily used in my work as a courier(broke screen). The A04e is a low end model that I expected to be slow and buggy. I have used it now for the past couple of weeks and it has done everything my s22 did, although a bit slower. It connects to my galaxy watch and seems no different in that regard. It handles my courier routing software and mobile hotspot for my Android Auto head unit just as well as the s22 did. I don't know if it will hold up as long as the s22, but I am very pleased considering I spent less than $200 and I can still get the functionality I was getting from a phone that cost me over $1000. No contract either so less monthly cost.
Hey Arun. I use the A12 model. I was initially a Note 10 user. When my note was damaged by water, i needed to get myself a phone for work. The A12 was cheap and looked good for a few month till I get myself the next flagship.
However, here we go, 2 years down the road, I'm still using the A12. The battery life is amazing and alright to watch YT and Tiktok😂😂
I broke mine Monday and today my A14 finally worked on the network. Love it so far lol
I use an A52S for work, love it. When people ask my advice on android phones especially back home in Jamaica I always recommend they check out the A series. There’s a model in that series to meet different needs
Work?? Get a iPhone 14 pro for that I run three stores 24 seven IT support and it does it task faster than ever 😂

Great phone, a little too good for it's price really, especially when compared with its successors the a53 and a54.
The best part about the Samsung a52s is its processor
I used to have the A71 and now I have the A52s and I love both of them. Pretty cool phones afortable, no bugs, no problems, the camera and the screen in both are phenomenal! Good battery life and have extended memory with an micro SD card is pretty useful! They are like mini computers at the palm of my hand! And they are at a price that I can afford to upgrade easier and more often than a flagship phone
Agree 👍
I have an A52s as well and it doesn't disappoint considering its price.
I used to think that having the "bestest" phone was an absolute necessity, but now I learned that an affordable mid-range phone is enough to satisfy.
I overestimated how much I actually use my phone and for what purpose. And I later realised that there is no need for a $1000 phone just to watch youtube, scroll reddit, and play some games.
Same, I have the A52s and I see no point in upgrading any time soon.
I also have an a71 and it is very good so far
Smartphones have advanced to the point that for 1/10th the price you can buy a new phone that's comparable to a flagship from two years ago. Your aunt doesn't want or need 4K 60FPS for Facebook.
Thanks for taking/giving Sales and Marketing class.
Been using the A52 for over 2 years now and I love it. I think I could easily pull off 2 more years on this phone, never had any problems with it, it still works flawlessly. Mid range samsung really is the bang for your buck. Only thing I wish for is more mid range smartphones with smaller screens (6" or 6.1" is the sweet spot for me).
Still using a51 and I see no reason still to upgrade
I've used an A50 until recently (2019~2023), and only upgraded to an M34 because I dropped the A50, and a proper AMOLED screen replacement was way too expensive, and the phone also wasn't charging properly after it was dropped (it would only occasionally charge through an USB port on my computer, and even then very slowly), so fully repairing it would ended up costing nearly as much as the M34, which was on sale at the time; upgrading to 5G and 4K was a nice bonus, though I have a dedicated camera so I don't care all that much about phone cameras besides using them as secondary units on multi camera setups.

Tbh pretty much every phone in the Galaxy-A series is absolute bang for the buck considering how good Samsung's software support is compared to other brands. Even for the higher-end A54, you're basically getting a somewhat trimmed down S23 for literally less than half the price. Watch Flossy Carter's review to see just how close the A54 is to the flagship S23.
But a54 compared to the competition it's really lacking unless you want a samsung

I literally bought a Galaxy A14 5G last week. I did this for one reason, and that's the absolutely massive battery life. I'm a very tech-oriented person, but the one feature that matters to me over any other is the battery. It's why I use an Amazfit watch instead of a Samsung watch. The battery matters, and the lower processing power of devices such as these results in less battery anxiety over the day. I can still get the same basic things done such as messaging and web browsing, but I can do it for longer.
Literally
Same😂. Had a A21s and an Amazfit GTS2 mini, then upgraded to the S20FE and the Galaxy Watch 4. The A21s lasted 1.5 days easily, the S20 FE and my current S22 last just a day. The Amazfit Watch lasted 1 week upwards, my Galaxy Watch never lasted more than 2 days.

It's great that you are talking about these phones because I think most tech-channels forget about them when they are actually more popular than the flagships. I use a Galaxy A52 and I bought it as soon as it came out for like 2 years ago and I absolutely love it.

This is my first time warching your video. I must say I'm impressed with your video and the infomation you provided. One subscibe for you.
For many years I have been working abroad, which means I have a local SIM card and a Native country SIM card. So I started to use dual sim phones. Then I found that using sim cards from different countries in one device affects many online activities, and I ditched away my local sim card and bought an iPhone. However, I decided to keep another local sim card as a backup, so I have three sim cards. I keep the native sim and the backup sim in one phone- I used to have a Samsung device (previously Asus, Huewei, Oppo, etc). I previously had the J7, the J5, and more recently the A53. Apart from the camera, everything is the same and I never felt the need to choose the S series. in North Germany, I like Samsung's devices than iPhone (google map, network signal capture, Bluetooth connectivity etc.) for some basic needs.
The A series is so underrated. Thanks for covering this. Absolutely loved it ❤

I'd love a video on the A34. I actually think that's more of the sweet spot. It's a bit more expensive. But you get AMOLED, 90hz with a much better set of camera and better performance.
I own an A33 and i think too that the 30 series is a sweet spot. I don't need the features of the A50 series but you get the normal OneUI (not Core)
I'm still on the more than 4 year old galaxy A50 I bought at launch, still works very well. Looks more or less modern, the cameras could be better, the battery is slowly decreasing in size, it's gotten a bit slow, but still somehow lasts a full day of 4.5h of screen on time with a very high brightness. Plus, there are no ads and no sponsored apps since it uses the real OneUI. Just got a software update like 2 weeks ago. For the 300€ I paid more than 4 year ago, it was a great investment.
why will one buy Samsung A34 as S21FE is selling for the same price bracket on Samsung website.
@@namankhandelwal3938 better battery life, SD card slot, better Bluetooth and it's newer. Of course the S21FE also has its advantages like a better camera
120hz*
I used to have a A10 it was by far the best phone i ever had by far. It was small compact, photos were not bad at all for the price and the battery life held pretty well under the conditions i put it under. When i switched to a Moto Stylus 5G i regretted it. I miss the A10
Thanks for explaining the generation meaning of the number model, love it
It's nice to see the "less popular" phones getting appreciation 😄
Almost my entire family uses the a series. (The A10 is the only one that I think is the weakest of the bunch tho 😅)
someone stole your comment and got a bunch of likes
@@ydanx well..... Rip me I guess. CZcams's fault for not bothering to do anything with the comments section bots....
But it's the most selling in the world since existed
I wish they would stop making these ugly phones and instead, continue to sell the fe series as the new budget phones, Apple doesn't do any of what samsung does, and it's still a way bigger company.
@@deadgoldenheart9560 Battery on flagships are mostly always horrible. He shows in this video itself, iPhone is on 50% and the a12 is at 80.
All FE phones also have bad battery..

How's that going

In this week
I changed from a14 to s21 5g

Mrwhosetheboss, you truly have a holistic approach to sharing information about tech. Detail without boredom, visuals without cheapness, and just the right pacing for your videos. Always great stuff. 🤘
This guy is such a great communicator.. very easy on the ears
I bought a refurbished A12 nearly three years ago and a cheap case off ebay. It was what I could afford at the time. Phones aren't cheap, especially if you are on a low budget, and I won't have something on credit.
However, a smart phone is a necessity in the western world now, so I'm glad there are affordable options out there that can do what is needed!
I'm looking at upgrading to a fold phone this year, as I really want a bigger screen. However, again, I'll be looking at something refurbished as that's what my budget is.
There's nothing wrong with buying a phone that doesn't get you into debt and does what what you need it to do.
I'm on my fourth year with a Samsung Galaxy A50, and it's been great. The only issue is the battery is now barely enough for 5 hours of active use, but that's expected from an almost 4 year old phone. Still enough performance for everything i do, still getting updates and still holding up even after several hard falls. In fact my experience was so great, i've managed to convince 6 people in my family to go with samsung's budget/midrange phones, including two hardcore iphone fans.
A52s uses a 778G btw
Me too! But I can definitely feel it has slowed down and the battery drains a lot faster than before, but that's to be expected.
Really
@Zaydan Alfariz Really wasn't an issue for me personally. My gf has an A52, and had an A71 before that, other family members have two A51s, an A13, an A03. And while A03 and A13 are the phones you get when thats's what you can afford, by the time you get to the A50 series, an average person will get all they need, and the processor won't even matter.
All the cool and flashy stuff, new tech, etc. happens above our budget for a new phone anyway, and if you just want to get a phone for daily use - youtube, instagram, chats, occasional Hill Climb Racing session and some pdf viewing - the truth is, if you buy the latest A50 series entry, it will satisfy all those needs and you don't even need to know whats's inside of it.
@@dude_with_a_knife6836 The A00 series does all those things very well too. The only downside they have to the the other A series is processing speed and camera quality.
I really like how the videos are engaging and try to teach you as much as possible, I feel like this is something I could show to my grandparents (who don't know anything about tech) and they would understand it
Nah, whenever I use bathroom stalls, I always pick one of the ones on the end. I would rather have the least amount of people beside me as possible while taking a dump.
amazing information. Stood in a phone shop and wondered for a long time if A13 was a scam. Makes sense. Mum loves the phone. These phones are bringing tech to developing countries.
This man never disappoints, what a great perspective of knowledge and educating the tech nerds always... love your stuff. and, on the board, I loved the apple reference.

Thank you for explaining the Numbers for android. Much value.
I have an A04s 4GB version. Its great value & satisfyingly well rounded. Well done Samsung.
It works far better than the flagship phones that I've owned. The purchase of the Samsung A13 5g was an emergency, and the only decent phone for sale in an out of the way place. The camera works extremely well in a low light setting, superb macro, and the connection sensitivity is very good. For years I was sold on LG flagships, leaving Apple phones because of the battery debacle. Selling 80 million Samsung A series - astounding!
I work at Cricket Wireless, a cell service in the US. We specialize in low/mid-range devices, and the A14 5g has been one of our best selling phones since it released. It's a really solid device.
i got my samsung a72 , 2 years ago for $350 and im pretty happy with it ever since , samsung just makes the best budget phones
A first viewer here. Damn to-point presentation, subscribed right away.
3:29 that catch tho😮
Arun's making fun of the thick broders on a 150$ phone , while the 800$ iPhone 14 has a notch.🤣🤣
XD
Lmao🤣💀
And the look of iPhone SE unbearable lol
It's all about having less money
I've had an A40, A50, & A53. I like them all. They're great for the price.
I like how the number 6 was picked at the 6:00 mark of the video
The fact that he's delivering high-quality videos in a short time is unbelievable. Good job Arun!
I mean its his job to make videos.
now he has a team
While also wearing shorts 🙂
I agree, but if you want to ask "How can he do it?" check out Simon Whistler. I swear he's proof that human cloning exists.
GOOD JOB
The funny thing is I'm watching this on a Galaxy A14
I have had the Galaxy A13 for 5 months now and I can say it is amazing and will meet most people's needs the only downside is the lack of camera options like slo mo, time laps and frame by frame scrolling the camera quality is great though and the storage is perfect 9/10
I have the A71 with slo-mo, super slo-mo, hyperlapse, and other features.
I NEVER use them.
Yeah, being a user of the A14 5G, from the day of its launch, I can genuinely say that it is a truly worth the cash, complete package. The experience is neat, haptics worth the price, and the camera- truly great for a phone costing 18K INR! I am into photography as a hobby, and I just love the camera!! The video is also fine, the FHD 30FPS just works great.
Now these are my reviews after having tried other brands like MI and Oppo. The A14 is just so complete overall. 🙂
Enjoyed your discussion. There are two points I would add. I know someone who owns a well-cared for A11 phone. She wants a phone that is just a phone. Talking, texting. That's it. All that amazing functionality available with a better quality phone means little to her. Also, she would no more carry a $1500 phone around (that could be lost or stolen or dropped) than casually carry around $1500 cash in her purse. Or $750. Or $300.
I hate to say this, Arun, but I have smartphones in all three categories. Budget, mid-range and flagship. Each and every phone I have (and actually use) have protective cases. Mind you, the better the phone the more elaborate the case in some "cases", but I can't be using unprotected phones when they live in my pocket while not in my hand. That's most times, but I've proven that while you carry more than one phone at a time it doesn't mean you have to have one in your hands at all times. At one point I had three active smartphones on me at all times, but while on the clock at work they're all on either do not disturb or "Focus Mode:Work."
Absolutely spot on, I have the A13 5G model, the main reason for buying this was the 3yr software update, NFC and price (ZAR4700). I could've got the A24 or A34 but getting those meant that all I got extra was the 10W faster on charging speeds, OneUi instead of OneUi Core and the AMOLED screen but also meaning that I would've spent ZAR 2000 to ZAR 4000 more on getting that and an additional 2k just on accessories. It really is just about what you need and what you're willing to spend. There's no need to grab the latest flagship but end up not knowing how to use half of the features or just using it for plain old daily calls, text and social media.
How has it been watching content on the phone? I'm due for an upgrade and I wanted the A34 but it doesn't have a headphone jack and I can't afford those kinds of things. The A24 reviews have me worried though.
@@cwaicwai821same life problems
Oh yeah. Samsung does market the A series a lot in South Africa.
eyy fellow South African! How has the A13 been for you? I wanna get a cheaper phone but I also don't want it to die on me in like a year.
@@cwaicwai821You can buy the dongle that makes the usb c port a 3.5mm jack, it's cheap and you can let it attached to the headphones you use with your phone, i bought it for 3 usd. The dongle it's really flexible and durable so no problems with twisting or anything. EDIT: the a34 it's an exellent midrange phone, it's so much better than the a24, the difference is really massive.
I've got a Samsung A04 (64GB ROM and 4GB RAM, Copper color) variant.
When I made the initialization, I was extra careful what to tick on and off as I know Samsung's way to recover money with those apps and things.
Overall, the phone is awesome. Not only it's powerful enough to play anything on it at over 30 fps stable, but it also provides a fairly big screen and storage to use for productivity and photography.
In the video the phone is specified to be 129$, I bought it new for around 140$ half an year ago (probably since I'm in EU it's slightly more expensive).
Althought, for other phones you would have to pay almost twice as much as the MSRP of this Samsung A04 just have the same specs.
Samsung always was my phone to pick when in need of one, fairly priced, durable and cheap to fix in case something happens.
I also have an A04s. Really good phone, can play most games I care about (openwork or shooters) and I got mine expanded storage and it still cost less than yours, prolly caus I'm not in EU. I can use it for editing and other stuff. Really good phone.
I have the A03s. I also have an A54. I'm starting to like the A03s very much. It doesn't suffer from the relentless One UI updates of the A54, which frequently produce network problems that I must resolve by resetting network settings and which seem to produce no practical benefits. Tonight I did some night photography with the A03s; I was expecting it to flop entirely. I was shocked - despite the absence of "night mode", it did a nice job on still photos and an even better job on videos. My A03s was $150 and the A54 was $450. It strikes me that I'd probably be perfectly happy if both were the A03s.
@@putent9623 i was thinking about getting my mom a new phone for her birthday in april since i got my first job so i want to surprise her but i still dont jave a big budget and i think she doesnt need anything better cus all she does i youtube and facebook so do you think a04 base version 3/32gb is enought or should i get something stronger?
i got the a10 in 9th grade, im in sixth form now and hopefully getting the a24 next month, the phone works well enough but its been like 4 years and im tired of not having more updates
Do you keep the phones you review?
6:16 Bro called Airrack just to ask him what bathroom would he use
lol
I'm sorry Icogni, but when you post anything online, it's there forever. You can delete your post, picture, whatever, but someone has already screenshotted it and used it to do bad things. As for the video, I love how you kept the pace and the editing is spot on. I enjoyed it a lot!
This phone is currently $99 with Straight Talk here in the U.S. Good deal.
Never seen someone analyse it this well from so many dimensions. Great takeaways for product engineers
The price to build quality and experience of the A1 series also means its a very attractive option for businesses who supply phones to their workers. I have an A13 which was provided by my organisation - it ticks all the boxes for usability, whilst still being affordable enough to supply them to a large number of people.
we got a34 for y mom's birthday present, and its a very nice phone, good camera, nice feel and good design, from p20 pro, performance doesnt seems lacking
