        DarlingYext, 07 Nov 2023How so? It's the same chipset in each phone.The one used in S23 FE is fabricated in a newer node and has a bigger vapor chamber supposedly, but who knows, we'll see in the review.

            That Purple colour deserves a better phone to be in. Wow. That may be my favourite phone colour in a long time.

                s23 fe but with sd gen 1 instead of gen 2. nice scam lol

                  justasmile, 07 Nov 2023Mainly people would buy this over others for their telephot... moreWell, the S22 series and S23 series all have telephoto cameras and except for the Ultra models you can find them for around the same price as this, and all of them are better. The Xiaomi 12 Pro has a zoom lens as well, and is better in every possible way, same goes for the Xiaomi 13T and 13T Pro.

                  People will only buy this because it's a brand new Samsung and has "S23" in it's name, that's all, it's specs are below par for the price.

                  Anyways if I wanted 2019 bezels on my phone, I'd get a 2019 flagship for less than 200 usd lol, or a 2020 flagship with the much more stable Snapdragon 865/865+ chipsets. Maybe a Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, or something from the S20 line, these are really cheap now.

                  If all I cared about were software updates the A54 is still an option for a lot less money, with obviously worse specs, but neither of them are good and they look the same, might as well get the cheaper one.

                      justasmile, 07 Nov 2023Yes, but there are quite some hardware changes in between. ... moreIt's old stock, just old leftovers, nothing is new. Any phone in the same price range is better, whether it's Samsung or something else.

                        DarlingYext, 07 Nov 2023How so? It's the same chipset in each phone.Yes, but there are quite some hardware changes in between. It's a different type of 4nm, which allows the phone to perform closer to 8+ gen 1.

                          I think I'm gonna give it a shot

                                justasmile, 07 Nov 2023It's a great phone but the bezels just suck, really.If this phone came last year before the S23 series then agree with you, otherwise it's not a good phone at all in late 2023 since this is just S22 FE

                                  you have to suffer, 07 Nov 2023in conclusion, this is basically glorified s22 in a54 shell... moreThe One UI is also slow and choppy, if the S23 FE uses an Exynos 2200 or Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, it will feel like a Snapdragon 870 because of the lack of optimization.

                                    in conclusion, this is basically glorified s22 in a54 shell and display.
                                    you'd still need phone coolers to game on this

                                      Samsung marketing is at full force with this thing for some reason, with nearly all YouTubers praising this as if it’s a flagship for cheap, ignoring that it’s technically an S22FE, also ignoring its huge bezels and bulkiness and small screen for the size.

                                      Samsung’s remaining advantages are IP68 and software. But this year, literally only the S23 and foldables coming out good from Samsung. The rest (A54, this) is just trending towards bulky and big bezels for some reason.

                                        The Exynos 2200 is very different from the s22's.
