Remember we're having now 4-5 version upgrades promised. And with that AI crap more and more will be reserved on OS level... bottom line is that base Sline comes with less RAM than midrange phones with 1/2 price on the market..

    And having Snapdragons with small battery is a disaster, as soon as you put load on them..

    None of those issues exist on S-ultra, but then again it's competitive only with good cell contract.. But that is just my opinion ofc, ymmv.

Just to have more of it that is probably slower too then the 6-8GB on S series. These S series give you a lot better cameras and also flagship chip that gives you the performance. Smaller battery is cause the phone is a lot smaller.

        More RAM to compensate the lower performance of the chip.

                    read/write, Random read/Write etc

                    From Gsmarena review
                    The A55 is now built around a 6.6-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and regular old 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution. The panel also supports HDR10+ and has the necessary Widevine L1 certification for high-quality, HDR-enabled streaming on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.

                    Hdr10+ is same as Doby Vision when you visit Streaming website they will serve you what your device support, Netflix, Prime, Apple TV etc all support it and because it's royality free even pirating movies adopt it more than Dolby.

                    Also how does bezel have anything to do with Display Quality? For some people prefer bezel more Than no bezel, especially when it come to durability.

                      Anonymous, 19 Sep 20248-bit panel tooyes, if we still admit like Hemedans said brands will not upgrade their phones and in the end make technology stagnant on smartphones.

                          How can we say the A55 has a better display when it has big bezels, no Dolby Vision, no 1920Hz PWM and many others.

Not gonna p... moreThat's specs worship we are talking here, phone having 1.5K resolution doesn't mean display is better, plenty of reviews out there A55 have highend display and superior to many midrange alternative.

                                  also ufs Storage is something many people confuse here, ufs is just controller which specify theoretical speed, doesn't mean if it has ufs 4 or 3 then automatically you get better speed, you can have worse speed even with better on paper version.

                                  There are dozens phones with ufs 3.1 which in real life have better speed than Poco X6 pro like Poco F5, Huawei P60, oneplus 12R etc

                                  About X6 pro vs A55 they have same random read and X6 has better random write speed by big margin. So for average user who rarely play games or run heavy apps experience would be same, but for heavy user who write a lot then X6 pro would be superior.

                                    the S series consider the worse samsung portpholio model line up in term of yearly sale volumes. From out of 220M last year shipment . s23 oerall only sold about ~ 27M.

                                      It will probably be the slowest phone in its price range. Most probably competing against some oneplus r series and some motorola flagship and the iphone se.
