          Hi GSMArena! If you're reading this, I wanted to ask you why you didn't include Xiaomi 13T as an alternative to S23 FE on review's last page. Seems like they're in similar price brackets. Perhaps you could shed light as to why 13T is a better/worse product in X category and so on. Would make things interesting!

          Love you content btw. 😁

            Many phones with bigger 6,5 even 6,6" screens are more compact than this.
            I have 6,55" Mi lite 11 5g which is old phone and not flagship but have much better bezels then this.

              My old Xiaomi 11 lite 5G have bigger 6,55" screen but smaller dimensions and 50 grams less....to me this just look like big waiste of space and mass.

                        A useless, overpriced phone that no one wanted.

                            How did the battery life score that bad 💀 The S22+ with larger screen, same chipset and battery capacity even scored way better than this. The FE series went down from being an actual fan favorite to clearing-the-old-inventory series.

                              It is quite a glamorous shade of purple tbh. I'm sure the ladies and the more feminine-oriented folks (and thanos) would really like this.

                                  Super Android 22, 16 Nov 2023You would rather have false, badly calculated numbers than ... moreWhat are you on about? The reveiw was fair to samsung and the summary was accurate... where it warns people that this phone is trash for anything over $500. What else can you take away from this review? Bad battery, bad performance larger bezels and a thicker heavier phone are all deal breakers to most

                                    This is the ONLY phone I've ever returned after a week of use. The form factor is horrible -- it's just awkward and uncomfortable to hold for any length of time (especially without a case). The back is very slippery. The cameras are mediocre and as the review noted, it is a heavy beast. The only thing I liked was the display. It was bright and easy to read.

                                    I think if I'm going to put up with the Samsung bloatware and infrastructure, the phone needs to be pretty good. This is not even close to that.

                                      I think Xioami 13T series trump this phone (if they are sold in your country)
