        I think that for Americans I wouldn’t recommend this phone unless you need a huge screen because of poor vision or for content consumption considering you can get a refurbished pixel 4a or iPhone SE for 100 usd.

          DroidBoye, 20 Dec 2023I bought a Tecno Pova 5 8/128GB with UFS 2.0 storage at 88U... more88usd where?

            Samsung could let people use Dolby Atmos on the speaker. The M54 can do it despite having a mono speaker as well.

              Samsung A05s has ufs 2.2 even in version 4/64 which I bought. Memory speed is similar Realme 10 for example. Antutu memory test it is confirms. A05s has user experience ( It is my experience) is level Vivo Y36, OPPO A78, Poco M5.
              https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6Za8KdXRic 4:17 - 4:26min.
              In the display settings section, you can increase the screen sensitivity if you are not satisfied with something, but the screen responds perfectly.
              A05s even 4/64 is a great smartphone and it's not slow. I don’t understand why the testers wrote such a strange review and why the manufacturer doesn’t advertise the ufs drive in any way. The test on the 4/64 model exactly repeats the memory speed test from the video that I gave above for the 6/128 version.

                yohmartino10, 22 Dec 2023Why GSMArena always uses the lowest RAM capacity that is av... moreYou mean Samsung's own fault at pricing this phone at 210USD while only giving it 4GB RAM and eMMC storage while competition from, for example, Tecno Pova 5 is being sold at 88USD already have 8GB RAM and UFS storage? It's not GSMArena's fault this phone has shiet specs for its pricepoint.

                  galaxyS15, 21 Dec 2023Updated software is a thing bro.This is the type of phone that only needs a single major OS upgrade to run like shiet.

                    If you know the Camera sensor and pixel size, why don’t you add it to the spec sheet? Same for A04s

                      Why GSMArena always uses the lowest RAM capacity that is available for this phone class? Isn't it better if they use the variant with larger RAM capacity so that the review will be more valid for most users worldwide?

                        galaxyS15, 21 Dec 2023Updated software is a thing bro.Are you joking ? Literally who cares ab software when the phone itself is barely usable
                        You have the wrong priorities my dude lol

                          Mohammad Nazzal, 21 Dec 2023A23 had the same cpu and it still working without an issue ... moreThe A23 with 6gb and 8gb ram would have no problem. 4gb model is burdened by the newer Oneui, as users are complaining in community forum.

                                The devices are just released to make the more expensive device look better.

                                        Mohammad Nazzal, 21 Dec 2023bro eMMC 5.1 cannot reach 280mb write and 530mb at all eM... moreYeh I 100% agree - it's time that eMMC was gone, even for entry-level phones.
                                        IMO manufacturers are just using it to push people from low-tier to mid-tier.
                                        There's no justification from a manufacture cost POV to use the out-dated tech.
                                        The cost/GB for eMMC is around $0.3 while UFS cost is $0.36 - that is not good enough justification for using storage that is x10 slower read/write.
                                        (You can find those figures from mouser.in)
