The last time I followed phone news, Chinese phones were the king for midrange and lower phones. Now Samsung takes the cake by selling competitively specced phones just like the Chinese used to do lmao
My only issue with Samsung is they seem to develop niggling issues these days. A friend has the S9 (or S10, I forgot) and his phone has multiple sensor issues after a software update. Girlfriend got an A33 5G as standard issue company phone and that one has the "USB has been plugged in" notification issue (very common, look up on Samsung forums), not to mention that the phone feels and looks cheap (ironically compared to Chinese brands).
Not to hate on Samsung, my first phones were all Samsungs but that was Galaxy Mini and Ace era.

That aside, the last time I went out for a new phone I was pushed to buy Vivo instead. Wonder how much the guy got paid by Vivo to push their phones haha. When I said I wanted a Realme or Xiaomi instead, he'd rather me buy an Oppo too.

Costumer: what about camera, LCD and soc?
Oppo spg: hey, I said Oppo has 19gb ram... 😂

Unb1453d, 12 Jul 2022How annoying can that be?it depends. whenever you go inside the phone store, the sellers will stand up and runs to the target then surrounding them to promote with inferior oppo devices. like, just leave them alone and buy something else... so if you like to buy offline, make sure you dont go alone.

Rareart1, 12 Jul 2022Why does this have 33w charging... and my s22 doesn't?25w is fast enough for samsung, atleast they dont ruin the battery too much. 33w for this phone has a larger battery so youre like comparing your compact s22 that has 3000mah to a large bulky oppo that has 5000mah.

A sample short list below that are either cheaper or the same price.
Motorola edge s pro Snapdragon 870 12gb 256gb - 108mp main, 5x periscope - 1749rmb
Oppo k10 with Dimensity 8000 max 8gb 256gb - 2099rmb
Redmi k40s snapdragon 870 8gb 256 gb stotage - 2099rmb
Realme gt neo 2 snapdragon 870 8gb 256gb - 1999rmb
Realme Q5 pro Snapdragon 870 8gb 256 gb - 2099rmb
Oneplus Ace racing edition - Dimensity 8100 mad - 8gb 256gb - 2099rmb
Motorola edge s 30 Snapdragon 888+ 12gb 256gb - 2099rmb
The thing is though they'll probably still sell a reasonable amount of these offline

For people even considering this "brand" : you get max 6 months software support and thats it. Your name will be associated with cheapness. You spend money for ch!nese product means you support lack of human rights. Think twice if its not better to buy 2nd hand Samsung...

Anonymous, 12 Jul 2022$341 for this. April is still quite away. Why, oppoThey are probably targeting the elderly from small cities and less developed areas of China who are not into phones at all and buy offline. That is a very profitable market as they don't know what they are buying and rely on sales staff who push models like this. The poor price to performance ratio leaves room for sales staff to offer a discount to consumers and still receive high commission
