Good riddance to that ugly notch they have been having on the last few low A number phones

    Anonymous, 16 Aug 2024Didn’t know a phone was only made of an SoC and nothing elseIf you can only afford a $150 phone everyone's first priority should be for it to be be as fast as possible for it to stay usable the longest. At the price preference for brand, color, OS flavor are irrelevant, if you can call, text, take a photo in which you can read text is a good phone then you pick the fastest for it to last the longest. Simple

      " Ultra Slow maybe, but definitely not fast."

      The correct term is Fast Charging...... Technology
      12nm; 50Mp and 2Mp camera
      Here is a Clue A06 ZERO
      Samsung couldn't launch a range with less features without using the negative sign
      However despite your limitations you add ZERO to the knowledge base

                    Compared to A05, this phone ONLY got side-mounted fingerprint sensor. They aren't even hiding it anymore that they release basically the same phone over and over again. But, in all honesty, you know what? The people who buy this phone deserve to be treated like that. All they care about is a cheap phone and not the specs, so I'm just going to laugh about it. At low price even chinese phones are better

                      Come on guys... "E waste"? "Trash"?
                      You do realize that S24 Ultra is not necessary for all of us, right? There are millions of people who just wants a cheap phone with a big screen and durable battery. For some, 120 $ or € is the most they can afford. So, shut up and move on to something else.

                      Back to this phone. The only wrong thing about it is its price. 120€ is damn to close to Galaxy A15 (4G) and its 125€ price tag. There is no doubt which one is way better phone for just 5€ price difference. So, when A06 drops to 100€ or under (like A05 did) it will be OK. For now, go with A15. Or Galaxy A05, Redmi 13C, Moto G14, Realme C51... all of them under 100€ where A06 belongs.

                        Anonymous, 16 Aug 2024Didn’t know a phone was only made of an SoC and nothing elseThen again, phones at this price segment have nothing going for them, so you might as well put a faster SOC in to somehow differentiate your phone from the rest.

                          Let's not forget that this phone will also cost more than the Redmi 13C and won't come with a charger in the box.
