Him Heroix, 13 May 2024Yeah it's you only bro. I never experienced this on my... moreThats Great to know! so im looking for an affordable phone but hopefully a bit better than my old Galazy A30s, realy mainly focused on larger RAM, better internal storage, and longer battery life etc, very basics realy (my Galazy A30s is almost 5 yrs old, Ive had it for 4.5 yrs now and slowly struggling to charge, or battery life seems less, had 3 time sin the passed 2months saying overheating device switching off,.. so those are signs for me to get a new phone ) looking into the A25 as im on a budget untill I get back to work. I do most of my emails and documents on mobile phone so maybe the A25 might be good enough, atleats for the next 3 yrs or so.. Thanks

Apart from some glitches I haven't had the problems some other people have reported. Calls are fine, I've never had a problem with calls on any Samsung phone I've used in Europe, I think most of the people complaing about calls are in North America, there may be incompatability problems between their networks and the phone. I've had no freezing or lagging, except for a bit using my mobile network, but it's renowned for slow internet. Wifi has been fine, I've watched videos and done streaming with no problems. I don't use the phone for gaming so I can't comment on that. I had problems connecting to a Teams meeting recently, but I don't know if that was the fault of the app or the phone. I use the internet quite a bit and the battery may just about last a full day, because of that, sometimes not. The camera takes good pictures and videos oudoors, not so good indoors, but not terrible. Thermal Guardian shows the phone sometimes goes over the threshold, but not by much, if I did gaming it would probably be higher, I use a case, so I don't feel when the phone gets hot.

          Is the Galaxy A25 capable of switching modes between the front and rear cameras when recording video without having to stop first?

            Sadly, most opinions here give ZERO information on the device itself.

            Battery lasts. For Outlook, Teams, Office 365 and no gaming - I'd guess this one is meant to be the bottom tier for the business. (Keeping the headphones jack is a good selling point for the business)

            I've tried no games on this one.

            Screen is great, size and ratio are OK, colors are superb, text is quite sharp. Good for reading e-mails.

            Fits well in the hand, thin enough (with the 2$ case and screen protector) to feel comfy in my jeans pocket.

            Camera(s) ... I really don't care (given the use case). There's a front one, which shows me OK on meetings, and some three ones on the back, that I really don't know what they do. (Could do it fine with only one of better quality)

            Pictures are fine, low light ones are crap.

            Bit this phone drops calls like no other. On a highway, I'm getting very poor audio (sometimes I can't hear half of what the other side says), calls drop all the time, and ... occasionally I get calls dropping in the center of the city. I've ended up disabling the 5G hoping for an improvement. (It still drops calls).

            I've been driving on this road with different devices and I know that coverage is fine for ANY other device I've used.

            All Exynos bottom to midrange chipsets overheat under moderate to heavy load - this one makes no difference.

            I'd honestly say - if you want a budget Samsung go for A15 5G, cause of the MediaTek chipset and give it a try. I don't know if any patch will bring improvement in future for the A25, but at the moment of this post - it fails miserably in the most important thing - being a phone.

I did get a security update dated 1 April 2024, the day after you posted this which is better. I'm now waiting for the One UI 6.1 update.
                    I don't have the complaints some other people on here have about this phone, apart from some glitches when changing a web page or opening an app I've not really had any problems with it, no freezing and the battery life isn't a concern for me

                              I started using SA25 phone 3 days ago and I must confess that I am not impressed at all, it has no call recording, I even tried downloading it ,but it didn't work on the phone, I wonder why such an expensive phone would not have call recording, while my infinix phone that i bought since year 2020 at a low price has call recording, Also the phone hangs when i am typing, its so slow and frustrating when i am typing, I think the phone is over hyped ,my infinix phone that I bought since year 2020 is still smarter and faster than this A25. I wish I can return it honestly,cos I am tired of the phone , I am not happy about it all. Call recording is a simple and basic function that even the lowest and cheapest phone should have and the almighty Samsung didn't come with the function, its actually my first time using Samsung and i am not impressed at all, i cant type fast, even the battery drains quickly .

                                      A25 is rubbish because of the battery, it doesn't last one day .

                                        I got a software update on this phone today in the UK The security patch level is 1st February, not 1st March. It seems like Samsung only want their premium phones to have the most up to date security patches.
