    Battery performance is great, I can still have battery for a whole day like 1 hours per day. Just please turn off "High frame rates" to normal 60hz and keep AOD to "Only when I touch". Performance, the phone didnt heat up at all.. just normal gaming temperature when playing Ace Racer and Genshin Impact. Camera, LOL too many edit apps I use.. so no issue on photo quality, we can edit to better image anyway. Speaker, So-so.. not the best, but there is Dolby setting. The only things that Samsung user cant leave samsung because of this apps, "Secure Folder" by Knox. its totally free and secure and everything locked. Any paid secure apps cant have the same.

      Question.
      I tested the camera of this phone in a store and everything was pushed: color, lightning that did not felt realistic for what i was seeing with my eyes. Is there an option to modify that camera behaviour and test again when i return to the store?

        Mart, 13 May 2023Yes dual WhatsApp, messenger and Facebook. Thanks! The other apps? I want every app to be possible to run in dual mode.

        Also what about forcing dark mode on apps without a black theme?

            Please help me choose between Samsung A34 and Redmi Note 12 Pro. They are very similar in many aspects. However, I want to ask people with Samsung phones:

            1. Is there a "Dual app" option for all apps? Like second WhatsApp, second Facebook, etc.

            2. Is there a force dark mode, that is applied to all apps in dark mode? I have many apps, like bank apps and others, that there no black theme and I want to be sure that the phone can successfully apply dark mode to all apps, even those without dark mode in themselves.

            Thanks for the answers!!

                  But actually even more problematic is that there is no official statement/document/resource from Samsung actually promising anything specific for A34 (or A54, for the matter).... they are being very vague about this, referring to "selected phones" and so on.... So "vague" is actually euphemistic compared to the reality.

                        Hi all. Please help me choose between Samsung A34 and Redmi Note 12 Pro. To my understanding, they are very much similar. Samsung probably will be supported for 3 years, meaning I can get Android 16. Xiaomi offers faster charging and a bigger screen. In my area, Samsung now offers free buds headphones as a bonus, but no charger in the box.

                          I'm quoting from the review: "which is quite an ambitious goal, but also very vaguely worded".
                          What is vague about Samsung's statement?? They will update the device for 4 Android generations which means this device will eventually get Android 17 and 5 years of security updates from it's launch date.
                          I don't see anything vague there...
                          Samsung should be praised for this move and not criticized!!

                                Well you see, it will be always like last year.
                                A33 no AOD, A53 yes AOD
                                A34 no HDR10+, A54 yes HDR10+

                                So A35 might have HDR10+, but it is next year model, so...

                                      Do not buy one. Samsung introduced the app Game Booster. You cannot delete the app and it controls ALL your installed games. If you love adds and dislike playing games then this is for you, if you prefer the game buy an alternative. There is NO escape!
