I have switched from Redmi note 8 pro 6/128 to Samsung a72 8/128awesome white in Pakistan after using it for 18 months. Here's my honest opinion,
The good:
1)Camera difference is night and day especially I never thought I would use the telephoto lens this much. Night mode is just super and camera experience is awesome. No more jurky photos due to OIS on both telephoto and main cams. OIS is I think the biggest difference after Sony sensor in a72. The super steady video mode and mics are just flagship level to be honest.
2)Amoled 6.7 inch 90hz screen is great for heavy users like me and awesome for media consumption.
3)Stereo speakers are phenomenal! I mean I have never heard this type of quality, loudness and clarrity form any smartphone to date! I mean I don't even use my mi mini Bluetooth speaker 2 now is its just that equivalent but with stereo sound.
4)At 203g and being 3g heavier than rn8pro it feels lite because of good weight distribution. The boxy look really helps in handling and looks too.
5)The front 32mp camera is visibly better in result and even supports 4k like flagships which was not possible in midrange a year ago.
6)Its ip67 certified so its I will use it tension free now.
7)I just play call of duty and honestly it played marginally better than g90t on the rn8pro. I think the Amoled panel and 720g Optimization worked in its favor.
8)5000mah with 25 fast charger in box is the highlight. I mean for a heavy user like me. The system still shows me that I just use 65percent battery in a day!. So its definitely a 2day phone for most people.
9)Color scheme and design is just professional catchy and decent. Matte white color has no fp smudges and gives a decent grip.
Cons:
1) Samsung, just like MI filled the phone with junk. I had to spend hours deleting the stuff.
2)Samsung one ui does not even come close to miui. MIUI flies! this thing is not fast. Miui is better than this ONe ui.
3)the freaking fingerprint sensor is pure trash! why would you not give it in side fingerprint like mi? this fp is straight up bullshit. Why would you complex the simple procedure when the technology is not ready? I think apple is doing it right by not putting this bullshit in their phones. I don't know why they are putting it. I simply don't even use it and use face unlock. and even face unlock is slower than rn8 pro but it still very fast so not a deal breaker.
Well overall Iam v v happy with the purchase and I made the right decision for a72 instead of a 52. Just for pkr10000 difference(I bought a72 for pkr 63000), the telephoto lens, extra 500Mah battery, Bigger screen and 25w charger is worth it.

I'm super interested in buying either a Samsung Galaxy A72 or a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G. I'm mostly looking for a good battery and a good front/camera. Upgrating from a 3 year old Sony Xperia XZ that overheats and has a terrible camera.

Arfanali, 24 Apr 2021Dear Friends, Suggest which one is best over all phone- Red... moreGo for A72 due to its optical image stabling main camera , SNAPDRAGON 720g (gaming chipset) way better amd more efficient than crappie 732G chipset, dual speaker with Dolby Atomos is best thing ever , plastic sucks on A72 but durable, and 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security updates way better than Redmi with is less secure and intension to weaken their smartphone for new one

I've seen a review from a youtuber and he says that the zoom is outperformed by phones that do digital zoom (I assume he means the realme 8 Pro). And the colors are pale and the photos are outperformed by phones under 150 euros. Waiting for the review here, which is always late. Also, let's see if they tell the truth. It's not a X3 zoom, it's a 1.1 zoom like previous Samsung phones, but they put hybrid zoom.

anonymous., 24 Apr 2021A72 failure device big drawback SD720G A22 A32 A42 M42 A52... moreLOL yea how sad, you will only reach half gigabit per second instead of one. That's exactly what's great about A72. It focuses on the important stuff that matters in everyday usage. Display, battery, camera, speakers, GPS (As i mentioned earlier, it's very reliable. While 52's GPS is pathetic according to Notebookcheck), speakers, 3.5mm jack. Sure it could have had 5G and better SoC too, but then it would have been more expensive and with worse battery life.

should be my next phone but Samsung always removes necessary features such as dual sim (not hybrid, cause I use 2 sims on standby -1 for data, 1 for regular calls/text), their higher tier devices doesn't have microSD slot now, more like copying apple. Features that I want in phones are as follows: dual sim w/ microSD slot, 3.5mm headphone jack (because I don't like using dongles -makes my charging port worn out more often), good AMOLED screen, battery at least 4500 mah or should last at least 2 days on typical use, dual speakers (new standard today in 2021), less bloatware (Samsung has many bloatware, some of them can't be disabled). I'll switch for now. bye Samsung

GPS is simply amazing so i guess it's bettery too. The dolby almost is also huge improvement as it works even on bluetooth.

A little secret, that 120hz screen of redmi's isn't optimized well, so you'll get much better experience in screen department too.
