I got this phone last July 2020 and I must say that its one of the best mid-range phone I've ever had. Camera, games, battery other features and the design. It was nice not until the new system update comes, when I download and install new update android 11 last december 2020 I started to notice problems on my device. Whenever I received calls they'll hear me but I can't hear them and the speaker sometimes it has needless sounds and all I can do is to restart and restasrt again. My mother often scold me whenever we call and that happens. its frustrating and finally last week of december 2020 I was reading wp and it suddenly freeze and hanged, it heats up then I lock my phone but when I try to open again it won't like for real. SCREEN BLACKOUT I can touch the screen but there's no display. So I waited a few minutes but it turns to days and MONTHS! I gave up and brought new phone xiaomi TT_TT

One of the worst phones I've ever owned and I've owned some super budget phones. Spent the extra money for an ok camera and after some update it went incredibly poor. Screen doesn't register finger touches half the time. Never buying another Samsung again...

silently4, 12 Aug 2021It keeps freezing and restarting randomly after the last up... moreSomehow, this Exynos is unoptimized, and in Android 10 it emits a lot of heat. It's so much that apps close. The constant heat could damage the motherboard, which is why one sees so many complaints.
In android 11, the heat issue is solved, but the constant battery drain remains.

Does anyone here have a freezing issue on this phone? I only just noticed this a couple of days ago. I was playing mobile legends and then the game freezes for like 2 seconds and then it works fine again. It happens like 2 to 3 times per hour. So I thought that it might be the game. I uninstalled it and I went to watch videos on youtube. A couple of minutes later, same thing happened. The video that I was watching freezes for like 2 seconds. Now I knew then that it wasn't the game app, it was my phone. I restarted the phone but it does the same thing. Now, it freezes 2 to 3 times every hour for 1 to 2 seconds. Can anyone tell me what to do? I already searched this issue on the net but I couldn't find anything other than to restart the phone.

EVERY whatsapp user can not send videos larger than 16MB or with maximum lenght of 3 minutes. No matter which phone you are using, iphone/samsung/xiaomi. So send your complain to whatsapp not to samsung.

i have a51 samsung phone. previously i had galaxy grand2 & c7pro.
2 days back i could send videos upto 98mb or 19 minutes videos through whatsapp. now i cannot sent videos more than 3 minutes & in very low quality pixels (430 × 260). what could be the reason.
any advice to restore previous settings & how to send videos in high pixels [480×400] or [639× 360]. very disappointed in this regard. samsung has just thrown this good mobile into 3rd grade phone. sharing quality videos with your family & friends & others is one of main media activity & in the regard this ss a51 will let down you. i request samsung via gsm arena platform to update its software in this regard.

USA, 04 Aug 2021A32 or A51 (2021) and why that phone? Tnx for answerssIf they have the same price, then choose a51.
Reason:
-2 Major Android OS upgrade until 2023+ Security update until 2024.
- A51 has Pro mode camera + front back camera switch during recording (even A52 dont have camera switch feature)
- has more modern design (punch hole screen) + thinner bezel

Anonymous, 13 Aug 2021Mine is working fine..go to service centre for helpIt's a global issue concerning devices with Exynos 9611 as I mentioned.
You can google this to fully understand.
By the way I'm a Samsung fan, I have A51 with this issue then I bought A72 as it doesn't have Exynos and I also have Galaxy Watch Active 2 and would have bought Galaxy Buds Pro if I hadn't to buy a new mobile.
What if I told you that even Samsung flagships with Exynos SOC have same problems after while.
Just google what I wrote here and I'd appreciate your feedback.

It keeps freezing and restarting randomly after the last update.
Poor Samsung to have its most sold devices with Exynos 9611 collapse like this.
And the consumer has to pay more than half the mobile price for replacing the board.
At least they should cut the board price as it's their mistake not the consumer's.
