I have the March security update. The device is fine, responsive. Now yeah, sound at Max volume isn't that great, neither is the camera but that's expected from Samsung.
The battery is a 50/50 situation. It's not that great for a 4,000mAh battery. It ends up giving me a 5-6h SoT, but i have seen other devices at the same amount of battery capacity or even less that have more SoT.
So this has nothing to do to a battery drain. It has to do to Samsung's bad optimization and the chipset inside. Take the new A71 for example, not only does it have a larger battery, but it has a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset and it's better optimized which means more SoT. It also even managed to beat the new S20 Ultra in a battery drain comparison test.
So in conclusion it's not a battery drain, it's bad optimization. Samsung can do something and fix this issue, fingers crossed that battery life will improve with Android 10.
And also, about that issue with the network (signal) being too slow, or unresponsive.
I've never had such issues and even on 4G/4G+ and Wi-Fi i do get the speeds that are expected from my phone carrier and ISP.
First you have to make sure it's not your network.
Do a Speedtest on your phone through Wi-Fi and do the same through your PC/Laptop. See if the results are the same. Do the same for mobile data from different phones, go outside, go in various other locations and see if the speed/signal reception as expected. It might be because you are in a closed space surrounded with walls or in a remote place where you can't have faster speeds. You can also remove your case (if you have one on your phone) and see if there's a difference. Maybe it covers the antennas. They are usually located on the top sides and bottom sides of the phone so you might try avoiding them. You can check online to find out where exactly the antennas are located and you might want to use slimmer cases.
I hope this helps and resolves your issues :-)

Shame on Samsung.
Today i checked for software update, and instead Android 10 we in Europe got the March Update.
Such a shame that Samsung ends up prioritizing other devices that aren't meant to get the update, but do get it at the end.
It seems that now, we need to wait for a month untill we finally get the Android 10 Update.
By the time we get it Google will already release Android 11.
Samsung is always behind in software updates, even my schoolmate's Mi A2 Lite which is 3x cheaper already got Android 10.

Maybe they will update the version with bug free. Also another problem is OS10 blocked gesture function of Nova launcher and also I seen that the Nova backup folder name is not show after OS10 update. Nova says it's because of OS10 security becomes a littlr more strick than earlier OS version. I say don't install OS10 because it's not good, please wait for the fix and then update or be with OS9 that's still great to use.
