They moved on from HD+ to FHD+ for the A series. I wonder if they also moved on from activating lockscreen ads out of the blue. In the name of saving the earth or rpmoting human rights, like what the ads say.

Anonymous, 26 Dec 2023I dont think this phone has emmc storage. I have seen a few... moreI saw on a non english site that when translated, said that the SD 680 is the reason why this had UFS-like speed.
It was not in English anyway so don't quote me on that.

safin asa, 21 Dec 2023These phone are no longer suppported by their corporation. ... moreRecommending Redmi. Havent heard that joke for a while. And I am writing this from redmi 10C. Which can be outperformed not only by Honor 10 but even Tecno Spark 8 pro has faster reactions and fullHD screen.

Anonymous, 21 Dec 2023Yeh I 100% agree - it's time that eMMC was gone, even ... moreYou need chipset that support UFS and looking at todays phones shipped brand new with 5-6 year old MTK G85 SoC's, shoratge of circuits, no future in cpu development (1nm is impossible to reach) no change will happen in two or three years future.

Lm1235, 22 Dec 2023 Samsung A05s has ufs 2.2 even in version 4/64 which... moreUfs is not memory (RAM uses DDR i.e LPDDR4X) it is storage (like harddrive in PC) it is completely different in both usage and speed.

i dont think emmc is even possible with this SoC. Even Redmi 10C has UFS storage. It would be contraproductive because it will slow the.whole.system down.

I dont think this phone has emmc storage. I have seen a few of the tests run on youtube on the stoarage and the speeds acheived on the read and write are far too high to have been acheived by emmc. They seem to be around ufs 2.1 or ufs 2.2

Whos on da phone, 24 Dec 2023If you like to be plaqued by adds..l have a poco phone lm s... moreThose things that can be disabled or modded out with cfw? Amazing. Cause Samsung occasionally enables lockscreen ads on some of the models and that is bad since most Samsung use AMOLEDS now. And with the incessant locking down of their OS, good luck getting rid of their bloat lmao.

This goes to show that:
Slow CPU + copious amounts of RAM does not mean better performance.
Slow CPU + UFS does equal some sort of faster performance.
Why can't manufacturers understand this?

eMMC = auto lagfest trash. With A15 getting G99, hopefully A06 next year will get G99 and no more eMMC.

Jagad Bagga , 21 Dec 2023Redmi note 11 has same chipset with UFS 2.2 storage.. But ... moreReally? Try the Redmi 10C and see if A05s can outperform the Redmi. Tips for you: The A23 cant even outperform the Redmi 10C, so A05s dont stand a chance. All 3 phones using SD680 btw

Quote:" that the Galaxy A05s is just slow in a noticeable manner.<
Even the "Core" version of One UI struggles to deliver smooth animations and transitions.
To be clear, it never actually stutters.<
So what is it?
Slow in noticeable manner?
Or
It never actually stutters?
My A05s mostly has 10-20+ tabs open, with utube play music. Zero lag. Zero stutter. Never.
I respectfully totally disagree about all in this review and verdict. You remember the low price for this phone, do you? Rhetoric question.

'and adjust our expectations accordingly.' Did you? Really?
Na, your negativity to A05s shines true. This was poor testing and or journalism.
When my Samsung Note 10 plus was at service center for a new battery, I bought A05s a month ago.
Super fast charging is really fast, very impressed.
Battery life is impressive,my A05s last 2,5 Days, while my Samsung Note 10 Plus, last less than 18 hours.
I no longer need to carry a power bank with me.
A05s Speaker is useless when play music. Most use bluetooth ear buds anyway.
Brightness is average outdoors in strong sun, I didn't expect more for a low budget phone for 150USD.
I now use my A05s more than my Samsung Note 10 plus.
Whoever wrote this article seems to think he was testing a mid range 500USD phone, else rating would be 4 strong stars for Samsung A05s
