      Bruh, who the hell buy the lowest configuration set (4+128) anyways? As if you guys think that the 8GB RAM variant don't exist

        so just a downgrade to lose 3.5 mm headphone jack

          Helio g99 and 4gb ram will last even longer than 6 years and still deliver acceptable day to day performance.

          It's not like Android would transform into windows 11. Newer android versions will use a new ram compression, that would make ram management as good as iphones, also google is working on better optimisation. You people don't really know better than Samsung. They know what they're doing.

          Apple iphones like the 13 still have 4gb ram, and these will be supported up till 2030 too. Why isn't anyone making wise remarks about it?

            veryangrynerd, 17 Oct 2024G99 to 2030? oof in advance for all the usersNope in 2030 we will have Helio G999 Extreme with class leading performance: 2X A76 + 6X A55, and the GPU Oh boy the GPU !!


            It's of course Mali G57 MC2 Extreme

                  This processor is questionable how it will handle this current android and one ui after a year... And big question is what type of memory this phone uses, is its ufs (I doubt it wil be faster than 2.2) or even worse eMMC, cos that is importat to for longevity, smoothness and stability of the phone...

                    Zaaran, 17 Oct 2024Why not LCD panel... they'll give low quality OLED anywayLike one in moto g35, that one actually gets brighter than panel used in a15

                      G99 to 2030? oof in advance for all the users

                        It seems that the only design change Samsung will have for its entire lineup from entry level to flagship is to change the silver camera bezels to black; I prefer silver tbh.

                                Up to 6 OS updates with Mediatek Helio G99?🤣

                                  classic mody, 17 Oct 2024and in 2030 4gb of ram is obeslete. 6gb should be the minmumIt's obsolete now let alone in 2030...
                                  Also why Mediatek G99 Samsung...why? if the reason is cost, put the exynos 1280 (from galaxy a33) which has better performance. For cryin out loud...

                                    3 year updates are more than enough , how an Exynos processor would last for 6 years.. high price low performance samsung game
