            Since 2013 with this phone and no problems! ive putted an extended battery of 5700mah and android 11 with linage os.

            its amazing and horrible how the big companies create a false necessity of buying a 1000€ phone every year. lol you dont need 16 core and 64 gb ram for running whatsapp, make calls and listen to music, and also take some pictures. absurd

              I have this phone since years. It's still running smoothly. Android 11 custom rom runs smoothly in this device (no lags or such). Impressive. If your battery runs out fast, change your battery, and take good care of it. I have replaced my battery in 2020, I never let it run under 50% (immediately charge), never stay charged after 100% (immediately unplug), the result 2 years no drop at all. It depends on our usage and take a good care I guess.

                      "1gb p/s theoretical limit ". Why would anybody care about a theoretical limit for a technology? There are too many variables. Network congestion, various operator speed delimiters, antenna distance etc. Theoretical limits are for engineers in controlled labs. Mine is running fine on LTE-A on 30-50mbit/s. That's more than sufficient for me.

                        Now running Android 9.0. No problems. Got a new battery. I was an original Samsung produced in 2018. So batteries are still manufactured for this phone. Currently testing location based pin-code locking. Appears to work fine. APT-X/APT-X HD/LDAC/AAC codecs available as part of developer options and is chosen correctly depending on receiving. parts. Found a wireless charger and mounted it. Working correctly. Nice!

                          bob, 29 Jan 2019I'm curious if anyone has tested the LTE-A download speeds ... more1Gbps? That stated on this page the max 4G LTE speed on this phone is 150/50 Mb/s.
                          I've measured 70+/30+ Mb/s on mine many times, but it depends on multiple factors.

                            I'm curious if anyone has tested the LTE-A download speeds on this phone and if they are anywhere close to the 1gb p/s theoretical limit and what the heat and power use is like?

                              I have one and it shows no signs of life. Can't charge batteries, won't show anything on the screen, and charged batteries don't make it turn on either. Probably a dead board but if anyone has a solution for this?

                                    I have this phone since 17 december 2013. Never had problems,I use the same original battery(it's not like new) and it's only going down too fast when I use Mobile Data.
                                    Camera is not the best when you don't have enough light but otherwise it's perfect.
                                    Storage is not a problem,you can alwasy use MicroSD card.
                                    Compared with new mobile phones,he moves slower than S7,8 or 9,but still is doing a great work.
                                    Buy with confidence.
