No for real, I have a question, why don’t you review Samsung M series? They’re often even cheaper than the A series over here, so I wouldn’t say that the one you reviewed was the cheapest Samsung . I’m so confused why you’ve never reviewed any of the Samsung Galaxy’s M series

I think they're both phones I'd never buy. You pay for the brand buying a Samsung phone, not just the tech.

@@taavi948wait, Samsung has an M series?

​@@therealloganyt237 yea

Bassed

😂 Legit comparison 🎉

A05 for the win.

A05 wins the battle 😂❤

so poor u still using £3 airpods

Fully agree! 💯 I think a mid-tier A25 or A54 is probably the best for 99% of people

I'm a techy and for me jumping to the flagship (I have a S23) is a game changer to me. I can however acknowledge the purpose of the budget line. I recommend them to anyone non-techy or looking to save bucks. Myself? I'm too into this shiz that I notice all upgrades so the flagships are my go-to😂

​​@@TechDaily A15 is already a good option though if not the better ones, well atleast for me because we only got the 8GB version while the others may only have 4GB-6GB. What makes me anti of the A25 is just the Exynos really. Even the higher end Exynoses runs badly, would never try the mid range ones. Same with the A54. I would always choose the A34 really😅

​@@sspeedd8809 exynos isn't all bad, it's not like exynos will be instantly slow. But you are correct, Exynos is not as good. I mean when a34 is faster than a54 it's shows how exynos has issues that need to be resolved. Even before then when S20/21 launched the exynos chip on (I think in Europe/international) was worse than the Snapdragon chipset on the us version people could tell, not just performance, but also image processing. Simply, Samsung needs to resolve it's exynos chipset issues.

​@@Dalamanofc with the heating issues, unsmooth swiping, etc. i have experienced on my S8+, i will never again. id rather get an iphone than getting another exynos powered phone

Thank you! Someone here talking my kind of language. Maybe you should be reviewing these phones lol I don't understand why he chooses to review these super cheap phones that obviously can't compete with a flagship let alone other more pricey midrange phones. I was doing a lot of research on the A25 & A34 because I want to finally replace my A71 5G that sucks and very laggy too after all the updates. I decided on the A25 with 256GB because unlike the A34, this one has a headphone jack, and FINALLY a physical fingerprint sensor!! I've been dying to get another phone with that feature smh. I hate the in screen ones, they suck.

The A05 reminds me of the old school Motorola G6 Play. Maybe it's because of the green wallpaper. 😅

@@Iwasbrainwashed I agree! I was looking into the A15 but the specific things I am looking for in a phone it doesn't have. $100 or in my case $160 more since I want the 256GB version, the A25 is up my alley with what I am looking for. Both phones are good options though, not that phone he reviewed☺

You know whats even better? Refurbished s21 or s21 fe

​@@Dont7worryabtme6yep

Nokia 3310 was boring... Other nokia Symbian OS feature phones were way better

I don't. I remember when you have to pay so much for packages just to send SMS and call. If you even have option to buy packages for those.

My phone can last as long when switched to basic mode

Agree. Just like sneakers, costs $500-$1k now, and pretty much they will be useless after 3-5 yrs of use. We are 75% paying for the marketing, while 25% on the materials. Tsk

Exactly, I remember buying a 64 GB card back then for like $20

Yeah I bought a 1tb for my S20FE last year for 90€. This year maybe i buy 1.5tb for that price 😀 it su cks that they removed the microsd card slot on top models

Cheaper phones have gotten better, while flagships only have specific improvements. I once replaced

Just got a Motorola edge + 2023 for 650 otd at Best buy. Flagship phone for half the price!

@@samholdsworth420 That's what I do. Flagships for half the price, even if they are year or less old.

my #1 priority, by far, is the smoothness and overall 'feel' of the phone. almost every midrange phone 'feels' terrible to me, and considering that it's the one thing i look at and interact with more than anything else, i need it to feel nice to use or i will be in a bad mood every time i need to use it.

My target phone is nearly just a tenth the price of these flagships. Weak specs but stock android so there is no bloat to bog down the software. There's also unofficial LineageOS in case I stick around with it past 2 years. But even if I change yearly, I would've only spent half what flagship users paid for. 😂

The comparison is made so the differences can be spelled out and well Compared So one can maybe see in a little bit more detail The differences to see what they are getting with a lower or higher paid price 😃😁

What is so ridiculous?! He clearly said what's the idea in the first 10 seconds. 🤷🏻‍♂️

What's ridiculous is your comment. The purpose for the comparison clearly went over your head.

I think a more interesting comparason would be the Samsung Galaxy A05 which is this year's lowest tier budget smartphones vs the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 which was the top tier flagship smartphone in 2018 that you could buy today for around the same price. My guess is that that despite its age, in the 2018 flagship, you are still getting much better performance, much better screen quality, better build overall, and much more features in the hardware. However in the new budget phone, you are getting a much newer version of software and probably much better battery life.

​@@sburton015 Fr i bought an S9 plus when the a15 came out for less than 90% of the A15 price, no regrets im lovin it

Literally the only way to go from here is foldables. Candy bar phones have reached a limit of what they can do

With devices being serviceable for longer than usual, it's logical that easy to service is the future. Unless we go full blast on wearables.

i have to agree with that. and most of the improvement for user experience is lock for high end phones lol. it made me think that technology went stagnant for a couple of years and still.

That’s super interesting! I’m glad the A03s worked out for you, and as a back-up device that makes a lot of sense actually. I feel like the A05 this year could even be a 4-5 year phone, I’m surprised how much better it actually is

I'm happy with my S9+ 256GB, still working flawless, just the battery last only one day. For 80 bucks replacement worth to keep it until is not supported anymore. After all, is just a phone...

@notthedroidsyoulookingfor Samsung stopped supporting the S9/9+ almost 2 years ago, and the last Android update was Android 10. Still a nice phone though (the camera will also still be better than the one on the A03s and A05)

Almost all of android phones have this range of price

Yea that's the pro tip which not everyone knows.

true

Planning on getting A15 soon , My current phone is A11

I lose my phone regularly and went with the A15 and fully agree. Ridiculous how many flagship specs you get from a phone 20% of the price. I praise Samsung for the amount of tech they are able to get into their budget to midrange phones.

​@@A-A-A-A-A-A-A-Ahow have you managed to stick with it for so long? my a11 was completely unusable last year

@@laiba8879 well let me tell you something, mine was a 2gb ram 32gb storage which is the least specs you could have on an A11 and for a low price of 120$ in my country in 2020 once it was released . First year was totally great until my storage got full , and once that happens any phone starts lagging and underperforming especially budget phones . So i was constantly deleting stuff and videos and apps every now and then for a couple of years now. From 2020 to 2024. And don't let me start talking about the rams , too little ram that i can't heavily multitask or else apps starts crashing . And i can't tell you how much I'm suffering currently with my phone. So slow and laggy with 98% of my storage full (even with extended microsd card) and i can't find anything to delete coz almost everything is important ,and as you know as long as you use apps they little by little start to increase in storage until they bust it full .and the battery life has decreased immensely, well the main reason is me obviously because i was using it in the worst way possible. But nonetheless if i have a long day out of home and my battery is 100% i still put my phone in super power saving mode to avoid dying on me😂. And sometimes it does. I withstood 4 years with it and i still love this phone but it grew old .I've been planning to buy the A14 when it dropped but couldn't afford it at the time(180$) and now the A15 has dropped (220$)and i was this close to buy it when i had the money from couple of months worth of savings , but some urgent stuff happened and i had to wisely change my plans coz some stuff are more important than a new phone. I think I'll carry out with my A11 another year until my circumstances change. On the bright side I'll Probably get a chance to get the A16 once it drops🤞 But for the record A11 as a whole is a great phone concerning its price and fits good in the category of people only relying on surfing the web and social media only. But apparently it isn't my category , I'm more of a heavy duty gaming, searching ,multitasking, working person . It's interesting to hear that you faced the same as i did so how was your experience ? and whats your current phone if i may ask?

99.5% of people's tasks. the 0.5% are gamers/ content creators others can learn to use the camera adjustments and take good enough shots.

They would be if Samsung wouldn't cripple them with crappy CPUs. They're too slow, even for casuals.

​@@Toyeboy89 Youre exaggerating. The exynos chip is fine and good enough for daily usage. Alot of A5x phones run fine even after 3 years. Sure there are much better chips around but it doesn't make anywhere near as much of a difference as people think

@@TheBowtieBatman I'm stating my opinion no exaggeration. I have an 24 Ultra so I'm a fan of Android and Samsung, but I can say Apple is smarter for the fact that they use their previous gen's flagship SOC. When people have poor experiences on their cheap lower end Samsungs, they then jump ship to Apple because they just think that's how crappy Samsung's always are. Where you have Apple's cheapest phone, the iPhone SE, has a freakin A15 SOC.

@@Toyeboy89 While I agree on principle, I don't think using the previous flagship SoC in their midrangers would be a financially viable one. I'd also point out that the SE is crippled in other ways, such as storage capacity. Being limited to a mere 32-128GB is pretty awful. Now, with that being said, the D8300 would have been a stellar choice for their newest A55, for instance.

The same with the screen lol

@fede4351 especially the screen lol

And what his mic (and camera) capture

You can still tell the difference between them, even if you're not hearing the exact performance. If a phone speaker is too high pitched, you'll be able to tell, if it's not too loud, you will notice.

​@@mrchipsmlbbI mean, how else is he supposed to provide this information? It can't be shown in person through this video, not to mention you can still tell the difference between the two, as well as the fact that he's communicating the experience of both of these phones display and audio through words in a way that's easy to understand. He's doing the best with the tools he got, what more could be expected of him

Maybe if and when those 7-8 years of update promises the bigger manufacturers have made come through. And if you can get a used model that doesn't suffer from burn in, which is a gamble at the best of times. There's some genuinely great offerings in the midrange out there, which would currently be a better pick overall, considering the longevity on the software side.

I have to agree, I got a note 10 lite for $50 and I couldnt be more happy

Samsung only supports phones for 4 years so this isn't a good move. I try to just get a new one every 3 years

@brooo4219 just get a custom rom, if you're not technically inclined you can still use it for atleast 4-5 years after the last update as even android 7 is mostly supported by many popular apps

@ArekZaleski idk man an extra few hundred dollars every 3 years is worth the convenience to me

They want you to pay for their smartwatches.

Eh. Maybe 50%. The performance difference between an A54 is still too vast. If you really want flagship grade specs, it's best to look at other brands.

Maybe 60% of the experience. If you want a flagship like experience for a similar price, you could probably just get a refurbished s22/23. And you’d get flagship like performance, as apposed to the a54

@@Cantripping most people never really need that much processing power, a higher-end mid-ranger like the a54 can perfectly deliver on all the needs of the avage user The most tangible differences for the general public is the quality of the cameras and screen

@@DanielPereira-ey9nt True on the general performance requirement side, though even the A54 has been described as stuttery at times. Which isn't great for what is actually a rather substantial asking price for a midranger. (It's 350 on a good day, but I've seen it as high as 450 before.) And you most definitely can get something with a better screen, camera *and* performance for the money.

​@@CantrippingWhich brands? Xiaomi? Motorola?

That's crazy.

True, imo the best budget phone is an old flagship, right now the S21 is around $200 and for $300 you can get the S21U, S22 and S22+.

yes I never recommend anyone the cheap Samsung phones, only recommend their 2 year old flagships.

On a Phone Factor It Can't Handle That Much Power Compared To Pc

Facts

Pushing the last percentage is always more expensive. This is true for everything. Building a 350 kph railway, for example, is far more expensive than 300 kph railway. The graph between cost and improvement is exponential.

I buy S ultra series phones because I want the S-pen and the gorgeous display, amongst other things. I don't care about the headphone jack, and I wouldn't use more than 256 GB of storage, which is included on the base model S24 ultra. I didn't pay anywhere near the full price for my last phone or the one before that, because I traded in the old phone. I do agree that, for the price, an SD card slot should be standard. The flagship Samsung Galaxy tablets still have an SD card slot.

Agree.

True, but for me personally it's pictures and videos that eat up most of the space anyways. Would love to have SD card slot on my S23 Ultra.
