    i intend getting the a 71 but the comments am getting, am beginning to have double mind

        I have just upgraded from a Huawei P20 lite to the Samsung A71 and I regret it. It seems so clunky and difficult to use. I'm not an expert in phones but it seems you have to use 2 hands to turn it off & on and to take a screen shot which is a pain. The Huawei would allow you to take a screenshot simply by swiping 3 fingers down the screen.
        To have to press and hold the side key and the volume down key at the same time is a pain. Also the fingerprint is awkward to use and you need to hold the phone with one hand while you touch the screen with the other. Not user friendly to me.
        I'm happy to be corrected but I think I'll go back to Huawei.

                  Numerous problems with the A 71 5g. Network connection issues, constantly have to toggle airplane mode to reconnect. 5g shows on status bar, but phone says offline. Calls won't come through 50% of the time. Wifi calls cut off routinely. Just about ready to go back to my old Moto Z2.

                    hello is there really wifi disconnecting problem on this device.This is very important for me.I am thinking buy this device.but I don't want to have such a problem.

                      The A71 is generally good for it's price but the camera comes in contact with any surface the phone is placed on. I just cracked my camera glass and now am thinking of changing again

                              Samsung phones are prone to charging problems. Galaxy S3 had it. Now my A71 started having charging problem. Indicator shows it is charging but % is not increasing. Static at 90% for 15 minutes... then decreasing to 89% then 88% but charging indicator shows it is charging. Any ideas anyone?
