The problem with Samsung is that, their phones have become expensive for no reason. Im even looking for another brand that offers better options.

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 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.

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 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.

A34 5G is quite standard and i think you should have recommended it

Why is KRplus suddenly having two ads that you have to skip? I swear KRplus hates me using it so much, I'm being punished.

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.

Watching on my A15 5G, I was getting tired of the flagship prices and needed a simple phone, this works for me

Thanks for this video. Sure helps one decide faster

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.

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.

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.

Thanks for this. Commentary that includes the depreciation of old models are the most useful.

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 😊

What can you recommend with FM radio 5g external storage and 8gb ram or more ?

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.

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 KRplus video here or there...

I want to replace my phone and my wife's phone this year, but am on a tight budget. I was looking at the Samsung A54 and now the A35. The CPU is more than powerful enough for regular use, the design is beautiful, great display, OneUi 6 and 4 years OS updates. But the biggest reason to get Samsung is something most people DON'T take into account when buying a new phone: service, support and accessories.
Samsung typically has a good warranty and service and where I live in Cyprus, their officially recognised repair centre partner offers 1 hour walk-in repairs exclusively for Samsung customers. That means if I crack the screen I can get it replaced in 1 hour with genuine parts and they will also preserve the water proofing, something you don't get with 3rd party repair centres who use generic junk. Also, since it will get 3-4 years OS updates I could replace the battery once a year, in an hour, and constantly have great battery life.
And this is where Nothing customers, Xiaomi customers, Vivo customers etc all miss out on. They don't have repair centres and there are ZERO cases and accessories on the market for them, unless you use Aliexpress and wait a month(!) for it to come....
Whereas there are TONS of Samsung accessories in every tech/book store I walk into. Even some petrol stations will carry their chargers etc.
I contacted Nothing to ask about repair times for the 2a because I like it too - 2-3 weeks minimum, up to 6 weeks max is what they told me...😱😱😱😱😱😱 I would have to send it to them and use smoke signals in the meantime to communicate......🤣 I mean, it's ridiculous. A lot of people will get bitten by that when they drop their 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

Thankyou for a really good review! More about A25❤ and my A72 also. Pros and cons

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.

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'm watching on my S20 FE 5G. I also use a Note 9, both are what I need.

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 💪💪💪

Finally the S21 FE gets its spotlight

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.

Sir what do you think about regular note 20 for 2024?

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 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.

Thanks for review 👌👌🤩🤩

I bought a34 5g and i loved it❤

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

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.

I would wait until A55 has been released.

Which is the best samsung galaxy model

I just purchased an s23 FE as my first ever phone because of this video, and it has been great so far!

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.

I have an A51, and it's starting to show its age. And i am looking at getting a new one

I have the a14 4g version, its kinda slow but its ok, the build quality isnt good, i dropped it once with a case on and now the power button and volume up button dont work, and the repair costs more than i payed for the phone. Also does anyone know wheres a good place i can buy phones cuz im saving for a new one i have like 500$ CA, i wanted to go for the s23 fe, or wait 1 year more and go for an s24 because they have 12 gb ram

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

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?

I agree with you I had the a02s and my experience with is was bad

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'm extremely surprised you didn't recommend the a34 over the a54, but I do see why you didn't.

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 think you should start looking into other brands, specifically Blackview/Oscal and maybe Infinix (has multiple other brands under it) which is huge in Africa. Blackview/Oscal offer very interesting devices with great specs at competitive prices, you would be surprised what you get for a 120-160$ usd phone from these brands.

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.

S20FE 5G is indeed the best deal ever
Got it for 400€ in October 2021 (after applying 200€ discount from my company voucher). Photo quality is very good both day and night pictures. Still working perfectly today and never had any issues wrt battery life or anything. Just running out of storage as it was a 128 Go :')

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.

Got my S21+ really cheap price just this month. And it doesn't disappoint

I got the S23 FE for $400 during 2023 Black Friday. It's been the best smartphone deal I've ever had

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 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?

My husband is still rockin' the S20FE and loves it.

Does any new device have a headphone jack?

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.

The Fold 4 is becoming a great deal for those who wanna try foldable. Ebay certified refurbish, they are like 600

I like the high-end Samsung with an SD card slot, I just bought a Samsung S20 Ultra.

Watching this on A73 5g ❤
But i would recommend A54 5G to buy

The thing holding me back from a non-flagship phone, is the cameras which is why I always stick with a pixel.

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.

Got my s23 fe for $400 on black friday and its been worth it

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.

Yup, when the Galaxy S10 was about to launch I bought a brand new S8 Plus at a very steep discount!

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.

Watching on my A71 which is still working great (Battery health is around 85%).

The FE lineup really technically started with the Note 7 in South Korea

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.

i own the a52 5g and a54 and its quite good

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

Maybe the new A05s will improve the A0 line. Honourable mention the Samsung Galaxy A34 G5.?

A53 got a huge performance increase with android 14 update.

What are these features i keep hearing about?

Im watching this on my A54 😁

The moto edge 30 is a good option imo

I have an A12. It is only 16GB so I bought a memory card. I could hardly get anything to transfer to the memory card.

I have the a13 and my girlfriend has the a14 and we love them!!

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.

Does an upgrade from A71 to A545G make sense?

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.

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 literally wanted to see s21 ultra on this list and it was the best buy. Thanks for confirming my decision.

I am still very happy with my Samsung A73. I have it now for almost two years. Can you make another A0 video. It was quite funny, although not for you because you were so frustrated 😂

Lol I'm looking for a new phone right now and I was watching your A54 VS A34 video before KRplus recommended this one to me

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?

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!

What about the Samsung A25?

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

As a NOTE fan and owner. I'll get the S24 Ultra. I'll save up money by couponing and OT. 😅😂

S21 U has a great camera, hands down !

i have a a 13 4g rn i have to put it in energy save mod all day long to make the mattery last 1 morning im dying

I've been a apple fan boy since , Its now time to try samsung im planning to buy the s24 plus soon ( Currently using 14 plus )

I just want value for samsung just like a52s which was sold out here when i found out it was good and missed out on it.

Bought the a54 last year perfect phone. before I had a Samsung s8

My a15 5g works good for the price 👌 saving money 💰

Will the s22 ultra have 7 years update policy as well? along with the s23?
I thought its 4 years

What about Samsung galaxy A34 5G?

9:26 My S21 FE (exynos) is suffering a vertical pink line on the display, happens after Google Play system update of Jan 1, 2024.
It's a good phone as an overall use, but something to consider if you're getting the S21 FE.
