The phone has served me so well for a year. I did a software update on 23/05/21. My phone is hanging and restarting itself. Anyone else experiencing the same? How do I remedy this?

Khamis Blackch, 16 Apr 2021What about battery drain for this update UI3.1 ?Battery draining issues affect most Samsung A Series. Example A71,A51,A31 some of the reasons is because the phones do not adequate sensors. Like automatic brightness sensor it switches on the front camera periodically to measure the brightness in the background which drink a lot of batteries even when the phone screen is off. Try to put as many apps as possible on deep sleep, also try to put automatic brightness off and all automatic functions off like face recognition and fingerprint sensor including double tap to wake screen up. All of these drain a lot of battery because they are always on .
What Samsung did to make the A Series cheap they cut down on the sensor integrated with some of the camera functions. Instead of putting sensor they use other phone hardware to detect. Light automatic brightness using the front camera, also double tapping make the screen run in the background continuously, face recognition make the camera at the front run continuously also. This is how cheap phone cut down on price by using one hardware to do many things.

I switched from a Galaxy S8 (purchased in 2017) to the Galaxy A51 (purchased in July 2020). I've had the phone for over 10 months now, and here are some of my observations, which will probably be a lot of comparison with the S8.
Screen - while I was quite comfortable with the S8's screen, the curvature was always getting in the way since it was quite easy to hit something in the curved part of the screen. Also made the screen a bit more delicate I think. The A51 has a regular screen so no such worries there. It's possible to use the phone without a case since the phone itself is not too slippery compared to the S8.
Battery - Far better battery life now. I can actually unplug the phone in the morning and recharge it the next morning. It easily lasts about 18 hours with moderate use (no heavy video streaming etc.). The phone does heat up with fast charging. It's better to charge at the normal speed.
General performance - I have the version with the Exynos chip (not Qualcomm). While I don't believe that there's any major difference between the two SOC's, there's a noticeable speed difference between the S8 and A51, with the older S8 seemingly much faster during the phone startup phase, app launch, smoother scrolling. The A51 does stutter when hot, which indicates that there's substantial thermal throttling
Camera - good results. It's got more controls than the S8, probably because there are more lenses and you can do more with the camera. Low-light pictures are good as well for the price.
Notable frustrations - The face unlock and the fingerprint sensor under the screen both suck. The face unlock needs a decent amount of light to work well. The fingerprint sensor is absolutely horrible. It fails to recognize the fingerprint 2/3 times. This is a very low success rate. It would have been better to use a fingerprint sensor behind the phone, which to me personally, is a much more natural location to use the index finger quickly and easily. Also, that sensor is probably cheaper and has had its bugs ironed out in all these years.
Hope this info helps.
