@@keqling7086 no punch hole looks like a extremely poor design choice and resembles more of a dead pixel on a screen than anything modern aesthetic wise. Meanwhile a teardrop looks like a natural formation as if it's molded and has nice curves. It's pleasant. Heck, even notches are superior since you have room for additional sensors and features for future additions instead of one USELESS CAMERA. FK ALL OF U. I will have to fix you peoples mind. Something seriously has gone wrong with peoples collective perception to remotely think that hole punch looks good or better.

@Takketa7 3 ай бұрын

Personally I think this is the best phone you can get at the moment as the price is not sky high and the software will make it work for up to 5 years. If you get it for 300 it will cost you 60 per year, this is an acceptable price as an IPhone would cost you 900 and if you use it for 5 years it would cost you 180 per year, quite high. But most people will not use their phone that long but the real question is how many functions of a phone you really use. Many just do a few pictures and social media, maybe paying for some stuff with the phone and occasionally a short game on rides or waiting times. Most people do not use their phone for major word documents or video editing all day, highend gaming or something big, people tend to forget that or just buy it to have if needed without ever using it like this as they tend to have other devices that are better.

@kitty.miracle Ай бұрын

i've been using all my phones for at least 4 years. Since i got my first smartphone in 2012 I've changed at total of 4 phones. Note 2 - 2012-2016 (smashed it against a wall because I was angry, was working fine until that point) S7 Edge - 2016-2022 (smashed it on the floor because I got angry, was fine until that point) S10 - 2019-current (still using it in 2024 as my main phone because it works with no hitches) S23 Ultra - 2023-current (backup for when I break my S10) So yes, most people DO in fact use their phones for quite a while before they change

Rocking the Galaxy M34 these days and it's a beast! The battery life is outrageous - games, social media, you name it, it just keeps chugging. And that 120Hz display? buttery smooth, scrolling and watching vids is like a dream. One snag though, the back's a little, well, slippy. Gotta fix that! Thinking about a full-body skin from gadgetshieldz - protects the phone and lets me slap on a killer design. Keeps my M34 safe from scratches and lookin' fresh at the same time.

I feel like A35 will be overall good... Even better than th A55.. as both phones are not for gaming... I wanted a mobile with good camera... Guess A35 would be better option... Hence i ordered it.. People complaining about not having snapdragon chipset, must understand that Samsung is trying to improve their inhouse chipset... More they use their chipset... The more they get to improve and we shall have better chipset options in future other than snapdragon.

the only problem with these phones is that they can't realy compete with second hand, cleanly used S series phones. in where i live, some people are selling their s22 pluses and ultras at very similar prices to this phone and an S22 ultra will blow this phone out of the park even if its 2 years old because it was build to compete for the best phone. whether they're fine with buying second hand is completely up to the buyer of course.

I'm planning to upgrade from s23 ultra to this one because I like the design better. Also I think you should never buy preowned. You never know what the phone has been through. It may as well break some days after you get it. My mom tipped a glass of coke on her phone and at first it was okay but then a couple of days later it started having issues - first it wouldn't charge, then the mic/speaker died and then it wouldn't ring or connect to network.
