Is there significant idle/overnight battery drain on S23 FE/Exynos 2200? % And would you recommend that phone for over 400 $/€ price?

Considering Snapdragon is most times like The Return of Real Pocophone F1 (only in users dreams :), let's hope for general Exynos improvement.

          Everyday browsing
          Less overheating
          Exynos is not good with:
          Battery life
          General photo quality
          Besides the new A35 & A55 are just too wide and tall for my hands.
          I'd rather get the A52s than the new phones this year.

            * means : browsing in firefox, watching videos in the memory card, listening to the music from the memory card, keeping manual brightness at 25 to 30%.

            As you know I mostly charge my phone between 500 to 800 mAh for 8 or 6 hours. Yes. I always do slow charging. I hope exynos does not heat related to charging.

              I'll be shocked if Samsung decides to release the S24 FE or S25 with a bigger battery and a Snapdragon chip and less wider/taller body. I will bet all my money against it.
              But until then i've decided to stick with an older model. And that is the A52s 5G.

                If Samsung can commit to continue with maintenance updates, monthly security updates, Samsung Store and fist-party apps updates then I may reconsider.
                Until then, I'm sticking with a phone that will continue to receive aforementioned updates.

Older (albeit e... moreApps support isn't identical to UI support thus I wouldn't be so afraid on that (tho I don't keep any Samsungs for years to drop details). I found just a negligible bug (1) on One UI 6.0 nor I haven't noticed any camera issues myself. They even brought battery per charge check back recently. As for all the rest, some compromise IS necessary. Choose some.
                    (S23 FE to live with slightly bigger phone hmm)
                    S23 small phone-like more often charging
                    S20 FE 5G final Android 13, security ends in 2025 (not sure about month)
                    A52s 5G 'could be better' for 2024 buy, final Android 14, security ends Sept 2025
                    S21 FE chip related battery and strength qualities could be better for a price
                    Well from my perspective in your shoes
                    S23 agree to rule out. For THAT money one has to be sure and satisfied. S20FE vs A52s. I do care about software part so I'd probably lean towards bit cheaper A52s for about year+ use period in cost of better but (also) not perspective S20 FE as a temporary solution and search for a newer phone to buy in 2025 instead. I'd also look if there's any used one in good condition around to get even better bang for a buck. Vote for another option anyone.
                    It's indeed up to you. Cheers

I don't care about updates and upgrades in any phone model. My Samsung A9 pro 2016 and Note 4 SM-N910G are obsolete. But still they are working and the audio clarity rocks in them when used with Sony MDR-XB55AP, MDR-70AP, MDR-75AP wired earphones. Same applies for S20 FE 5G and A52s 5G. I use 'kinsound type C to 3.5 mm converter with charging port' for Indian Rupees approx 1700. No loss in the sound clarity.

Heck even the phones being sold via the networks are also unlocked following a ruling by OFCOM years ago.
                          I do not use a PC in updating my phones.
                          Amongst the three i'm now leaning towards the A52s 5G based on my research of current OS & One UI versions and updates, chipset and overall size dimensions. And the updates it has received.
                          One point i was leaning towards the Galaxy S23 but because of a smaller battery capacity and so-so battery life i've removed it from list.
                          What do you think?

                            Gino76ph, 29 Apr 2024Definitely the newest A35 and A55 are out of the question b... moreI bought S20BFE 5G as new on Oct 2021. Then another piece as renewed from amazon India website on Dec 2022. It is the last S series phone to have memory card slot and OIS for 2 rear cameras. A52s 5G is the last A series phone to have SD chip and 3.5 mm audio jack.

                            One S20 FE 5G is running with android 12 Nov 2022 patch with the CP and home CSC files manually patched from the android 13 Feb 2023 update to make jio 5G 3500 MHz (n78) to work. n28 is not working.
                            Another S20 FE 5G is running android 13 with the latest patch. A52s 5G is running android 14 with latest patch (unable to disable the recycle bin option in the my files and the gallery apps).

                            The only question is whether S20 FE 5G will get update to support jio VoNR or not.

                            I don't care about the OS updates because I am having PC which automatically updates by itself.

                              1. Older (albeit effective) chipset
                              2. Will not get Android 14 & One UI 6.0/6.1
                              3. Updates to Samsung Store and first-party apps may soon stop or slow down

                              1. Older (and somewhat so-so) chipset
                              2. Stories of buggy cameras after Android 14/One UI 6.0 update
                              3. Updates to Samsung Store and first-party apps may slow down (but not sooner)
                              My other choice is the Galaxy S21 FE 5G but:
                              1. Older (and somewhat so-so) chipset with throttling/overheating issues leading to poor battery life
                              2. So-So cameras system but better than the other two
                              3. A bit confident Samsung Store and first-party apps will continue to get updates and will not slow down soon
                              I'm having second thoughts on the base Galaxy S23 because of it's high price (£699) and small battery capacity albeit excellent chipset.
                              Please tell me I am right or wrong on these phones. And which one would you recommend and why?

                                        This pick quite depends on further subjective preferences. S23 is the best and up to date phone here, however not cheap and you need to be a mini-phone fan.
                                        S20FE & A52s are about same size while you may consider S20FE camera similar to your current phone. Then you're able to estimate which of them is up to your demands (check S23FE & A52s for that purpose). However you're stuck with Android 13 or 14 company UI respectively. Both are totally okay today, how long are you willing to use such phone depends on you, though. Shorter period may be considered. Either way, both phones mustn't be too pricy to be worth in 2024.
                                        That's about it :)
