I've had this for about a year now, in my eyes, it is the only genuinely good "midranger", because it's almost as good as a S9 in my eyes, it pounds the shit out of my A13 in performance and cameras, I love this thing.

I don't care at this point anymore. The build quality of these budget phones that were over 5 years ago was just so much better. Aluminium back and frame, compact size... Phones were made to text, call, browse the internet a bit, do a bit of photos... People are stupid for overbuying these egg frying pans. Like what are they doing bro, watching netflix on their phone all day?... At this point, I might as well become a small / compact phone collector, because in 10 years they might have insane value and they will likely be non-existent in such size.

        This is the best Galaxy A series phone. In fact, it is a flagship Galaxy A phone. You know why? Because budget and midranges are the size of a landing plane area and only flagships are small and one-handed use friendly. God, I hate how the world is today...

            I am using this phone fresh from the box and still using it without any issues. I am getting along with it and doing everything but gaming.
            Now, in 2024, I am using this as a secondary phone daily because I upgrade to the S24U. I will never sell this phone.

                            bought at 2020, second hand.
                            still in a good condition, immediately put a skin and case. this phone is handsome, im talking about it's price and performance.

                            it was cheap, very very cheap now, it's price maxed at 70 usd on the market, and it has good technologies, aio.

                            you named it, nfc, fast charging, super amoled, dolby atmos, small form factor, usb c, full aluminum body, front and back gorilla glass, earphone jack, dual sim, sdxc support up to 1tb, ip68, samsung pay.

                            not to mention the one ui 1.0 (android 9) was good enough to complete any task. it's just lacked of customization and flexibilities, but still rigid.

                            i mean 70 bucks, come on.. no one can beat it's price to performance.

                            ah, if you want smaller and similiar specs, go to samsung a5 2017.

                                Have constantly looking for excuses to ditch my Samsung A8(2018) for something newer
                                but failed miserably. The battery still powering reliably and performance has not degraded
                                noticeably. Just hope it won't be hacked anytime soon with the derelict security update.

The phone itself is not significant compared to what is in the market now and has slowed down a bit in the 4 years I've had it but I bought the phone with my own money at 14 and it's a good first phone especially since it goes brand new for $100CAD now.
