zanezonair, 18 Jul 2024Yep. 1-2 bars of 4g lolI feel your pain. My house has excellent signal, but my office and the park where I go cycling & walking have it bad. My Galaxy A51 in these areas usually shows 2 or at best 3 bars and signal strength of -94 to -104 dBm.

        I have the 8/256 version, refresh rate is at 60htz, and I hae heavily debloated the phone.

        Phone only gets hot when under extreme load or when it's downloading a lot of stuff, takes a bit to cool down though, but it is able to keep its performance even when it hits its cap of 42c. (Wish I could chage that cap to 38 even if it would impact performance as I just don't like my phones getting thet hot.)

        No issues with mobile data/WiFi. It does not get visible 5g but I only use their 4g so not a big deal for me.

        Chipset has the same power as the snapdragon 855/778g but can keep its frames/performance whatever you wanna call it stable when it hits its temp limit.

        Flat screen device so you can actually protect it.

        Now for more info on its 2 flaws:
        1: heating issues.
        As stated above it does keep stable under high temps and if you use Samsung's game plugins you can usually make it heat up less or hardly at all. Or help it to cool down easier when it gets hot.
        The thermals are fine. But if thermal performance concerns you then this might not be the phone for you.

        2: auto blue light adjustment with no settings to disable it.
        Yes blue light can be bad.
        Yes this is a helpful feature.
        But it's a detriment when there's no setting to disable it.
        I had to disable it via the universal Andoid debloater.

        Both issues I have with the device I have either solved or just don't care enough as its a 300$ phone not some 500$+ one so I'm not bothered by the heating personally.


        As for the camera? It's ok
        It looks better than my oneplus 11's camera does.
        And i can actually disable auto HDR.


        Those are my thoughts on this phone that arrived today.

        I personally do not regret my ourchase and this will be my main phone until I see the s24 ultra for 400$ on Amazon in 3-4 years.

            How long does Samsung usually give software and security updates to their mid-range phones? I'm planning to get this phone this Christmas and by then it is almost a year since this was released. I don't change phones that often so I'm hoping I will still have 4-5 years of updates with this one especially security updates because of mobile banking. Never again will I buy Xiaomi phones. They just abandon their flagship phones easily.

                Can anyone confirm what type of storage does this phone use?

                Is it UFS 2.2 or UFS 3.1?

                      Perhaps it's fierce competition from Chinese brands like Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo forcing Samsung to lower their prices to remain competitive in the low/mid-range market? Could be.

                      Not that I'm complaining, I'm just happy that the A35 is sold at a reasonable price here compared to the other countries. But If I had $400, I'd pick the Xiaomi 13T instead, which is a much better phone than the A35 in every way despite being 9 months old.

                        Anonymous, 15 Jul 2024$400 for the 6/128 variant in the US? Wow, I'm glad I ... morePart of the reason phones are overpriced in the US is because they need to support CDMA carrier bands. CDMA antennas are much more expensive than GSM Antennas.

                        If you go on Amazon, you’ll find a cheaper Latin American A35 that only works on GSM networks (such as TMobile) but not on CDMA networks. (such as Verizon)

                        But maybe it only matters in the case your sim is constantly on 2G/3G. I could be wrong but many international 4G phones work just fine no matter where you travel with them. (as long as it’s the “Global version” and carriers are using conventional 4G bands in that region) I don’t think “Latin version” is the same as “Global version”, so keep that in mind.

                          In my country, you can get the 8/256 variant of the A35 for just $274, which in my opinion is way more reasonable.

                              Sadly, we're only seeing evolution in smartphones and not revolution. I guess OEMs really want us to upgrade as rarerly as possible. Oh well, time to spend those hard earned $ elsewhere. Could add a few inches to my... height 🤔

But if you have an A34 already, you are good for another three years at the very least. Nothing to gain at all from the new one other than one extra year of software support.
