JC, 29 Jul 2022Very laggy, laggiest phone I've ever had to the point ... moreI thought it was just mine. Extremely infuriating phone. Lags like nothing I have ever experienced. It's just that I can't afford another one right now but as soon as I can, I'm getting rid of this one ASAP!

If you are a power user, then forget this phone. The G50 doesn't pretend to be a powerful phone. It was designed for normal every day users who are not techies or a gamer. It is a dependable phone that works great for normal users who don't need to have a dozen open apps at the same time. Use this phone like a normal user everyday and you will be very happy with it.

The newer versions of android are unoptimised and heavy and big also ram hungry and have higher system requirements in order to run smoothly
Ever older smartphone that updates 2 or 3 android updates gets so much slower
The problematic end of support for old android versions by Google and need for updating is why smartphones slow down so much more than they should
actifcial obsoletesecnce
With this in mind I think you need at least 8gb ram for a smartphone too be smooth and smartphone with less ram and low end processor often suffer on new android versions that they can't handle

I've been using the G50 for nearly a year. It is slow, unresponsive too often, and needs to be rebooted again and again. I will be replacing it likely with another Samsung which has been reliable for years. I used to LOVE the 6230 and earlier phones of Nokia... oh well, too bad.

Very content with the G50
It gives me what I expected for the price
If you doubt: don't. Just buy it.

You actualy need to get it repaired, is not like everything needs to be thrown.

It never shows the device logo. It rebooted just after 3-5 seconds every time.
I also tried to flash the stock rom but the computer didn't recognize the phone.
I think I should find a trash bin to throw that stuff.

So let's go from the top. What app do you use to send photos? What network are you using to send them, wifi or 4G or 5G data connection? If you install the same SiM card in another phone and use the same app, can you send photos? Are you sure you have enough Bandwidth to send photos (if you use data connection)? Does this app have enought privilegies to read storage data?

JC, 29 Jul 2022Very laggy, laggiest phone I've ever had to the point ... moreMy whife has nokia x20 with the same CPU since Christmass last year and has no problems with lag. I doubt that your lag so much you cant use it. So take a look at the apps you installed or, if you turned developers mode on, take a look if something is on that should not be. Also turn off Magnifier in accesibility menu, if on. Vanila android is known for having some performance issues when "magnify with tripple tap" is on.

If you do not know what to do, better ask a friend or someone who knows android better. Sometimes by only entering safe mode can solve a boot loop Problem.
To enter Safe Mode:
When the device is restarting, press the Volume Down and Power buttons simultaneously.
When the device logo appears, release the Power button and continue to press the Volume Down.
If you see Safe Mode in the lower-left corner after the device restart, Safe Mode is on, otherwise you need to repeat the process.
If it boots you need to delete the latest apps that you have installed or reset the device, or well boot again in normal mode and see if it boots, sometimes they just glich without a real reason.
If it still does not work, you need to enter recovery mode and format the device.
While restarting.
Press and hold Volume Up + Power buttons simultaneously till the device logo appears.
When it logo appears, release Power button but hold the other few more seconds.
Release all the buttons when Recovery Mode screen appears. If you see Android logo with No Command text, don't panic and just wait for a while.
You can use the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons to scroll up or down, and the Power button to select an option.

Very laggy, laggiest phone I've ever had to the point of being unusable.
Durablity wise is amazing, solid as a rock. But I would pass on this phone, might as well be a paper weight with how unusable and slow it is.
