    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)

                      I love my S20 FE, but this is OMG terrible all over the board: throttling, battery life, size/weight. And the "excellent camera" statement is simply from another world, with contrasty and oversaturated images at day and just bad at night, all three of them. The cameras were the only reason I was going for Galaxies S, but would never for S23 FE.

                        This time the Exynos version is the best one, it has considerably better stability on the GPU

                              LoneOwl, 16 Nov 2023The Pros and Cons on this review are spot on. Kudos on this... moreIt beats the nothing phone for about 10 minutes, or 50% battery. After 20 minutes the nothing phone wins by simply having power left.

                                It's because the screen is the same one as on the A54.
