I am using the A50 since more than 5 years and it is still awesome. I am taking good care of it and it is still in mint condition with no scratches or hiccups. I suffered nearly 4 times of sudden shutdowns but I nearly have more than 700 apps installed (but background usage well controlled). I really advise buying the A5x series. I don't expect to buy a new phone for at least 2 or 3 coming years. The A50 is lighter and slimmer than most of newer phones and that is a big advantage for me.

Though I'm not sure of its value today, my A50 is 5 years old (2019) and still works great for its price point. Minimal lag, long battery life and durable enough its actually holding up better than my S21 which has major screen issues right now. I think if you're aiming for a mid-range phone anything from A5x and upwards is a good choice (such as A7x)

I have been using my phone quite heavily for the five years I've owned it, and this last week I have noticed that it has started to lag at times. The first 4 years were a breeze to be sure, but not anymore. Additionally, the battery life has decreased to about 70% of what it used to be. Used to last me 8-9 hours of screen time. Now, more like 5-6 hours.
I believe that a factory reset would be helpful, but I have way too many settings and apps and whatnot that would need to be backed up.
Overall, I still find my phone to be quite satisfactory. It treated me well.

Purchased 2019, still going strong and in excellent condition for such an old phone. Cracked many screen protectors (looking at a cracked one right now) but the phone screen is mint, same with the back. No performance issues, battery still lasts all day with moderate usage. No complains, so far best phone i've ever had, better than all my past iphones. Honestly i have no reason to get rid of it other than just wanting a new model otherwise this phone is 100% fine :)

I bought it around august 2019. It's impressive how rugged it is. I've dropped it, fallen asleep on the phone, dropped it in water, water has fallen on me with the phone in my pockets. Endless mishaps. I have never had to replace the screen (it doesn't even have scratches) no problems related to the water either. It has only become slow the past few months and I'm sad because of it. I love this phone. The best I have ever had.

Last update we got for it was 2022.
Yes the last version was a mid range budget phone, but it did the jobs that it needed to do. For those who are saying the battery is bad, make sure you fully close an app once you've inished using it. Remember that Cellular data uses more battery then Wi-Fi
I'm nto the 3rd Year of having the zfold3 & it's still doing good. Won't slate it because it's old, that's just nonsensical.
But when everyone saying a50 rubbish, what are you comparing it too when it was originally under £350 new in 2019 & now less then £200 to buy.
