      That's a ridiculous price for a 720p display phone.
      Why do 720p phones even exist in 2023. I literally bought a 10k phone in 2014 which had a 1080p LCD. I don't understand how we went from that to 18k 720p phones. We took steps backwards.

I'm mean miui might appear smooth, but it tells a different story when u look at the threads of bugs faced by users on Twitter and reddit. I'm just concluding from what I've observed. But maybe we are both in the wrong here. We should stop generalizing from experiences that only apply to us.

Sure there were slight frame drops when you unlock the screen. But a samsung software update fixed that , and now I'm wondering if such a problem existed in the first place.

                  "storfie"

                  what on earth...

                    Why is this so overpriced? It would be a very healthy upgrade, but no, of course Scamsung has to make ridiculous price increases that don't relate to actual increases in material or production costs.

                    The A05s should just be *the* A05 anyway (minus the 2MP depth and macro, those should just be omitted), and it should be sold at $130-$150. The A15 should cost $230-$250 and should get an 8MP ultrawide and an OLED screen with a u-shaped cutout, while the A35 should be $350 and should get a punchole cutout and a 12MP ultrawide. The A55 should be no more than $450, and should get a new 12MP ultrawide with AF that can do macro. No phone should have a macro sensor or a depth sensor, they add to the cost anyway, which is especially critical for the lower-end phones.

                    Also, the A05s should be slightly smaller, considering that its actual size is basically 7 inches, even though the screen diagonal is 6.7 inches. At a price range of $130-$150, such large bezels are acceptable, but it gets ridiculous at $200, and 7 inches for a phone is too large regardless of that.

                                  Samsung offers 4 years of security updates compared to 3 on other brands.

                                  That's likely the reason they 'overprice' phones.

                                    Doa also samsung ALREADY killed this since m34 5g exists
