17 October 2024
It's basically the same phone as the Galaxy A16 5G - other than the 5G part, of course.

        For poor people, that can afford a new phone every year, like most of you, it is very good to have some many years of update.

        It calls "inclusion".

        Try to put yourself in the other one shoes.
        If I couldnt afford other phone, I would love to still have suport for it, regardless if the CPU or RAM are enought or not.

          Interestingly enough, how ought g99 fair in 6 years?
          🫣

          Probably still better than the sd 685 in realme 12 4g.

              I love budget phones and I sometimes take quite a long time to upgrade, this long support is very useful especially for cheap phones like this. Will this be my next phone? It could be, but this has to be balanced ain't no way of using the 4GB RAM and G99 for the next couple years.

                  The biggest differences between this & the A15 are the slimmer bezels & how the screen is flushed along the frame. It used to protrude on the A15, it no longer does. + no headphone jack 😂

                    In short: they timed it such their last 4G phone is discontinued by 2030.

                      Helio G99 and 4GB of RAM in 2031 would perform like an Apple A4 nowadays.

                        Helio G99 for 6 years 💀

                          PureOS, 17 Oct 2024Generic E waste.This phone won't last 3 months let alone 6 years. You have to be delusional or have an extremely low budget, and even at that price, you could find a galaxy s8 or s9 and it would be way more smooth. Stretch to an S10 and that would be much, much better in literally every way. It only just stopped getting updates it's on android 13

                            So funny.. i own a a15 ...bought that phone because my oneplus 11 broke down and had to be fixed. Got the oneplus back. Was just software rekated problem.

                            But ...after 6 months still not switched to the oneplus. A15 works just fine.

                            This convinced me that i will never buy an expensive phone again.

                            Do i notice a difference? Yes. Oneplus works faster abd better pictures.

                            But do i really care? Seems not. :))

                            A15 just a good phone and long lasting battery. :))

                            A16 must be good too :)

                              and in 2030 4gb of ram is obeslete. 6gb should be the minmum

                                Generic E waste.

                                    As of year 2031 4g ram is unacceptable.
