its a smurf, 27 Mar 2024Definetely, and still almost 3 years of security updates.A55 decimates the s21 fe in MANY regards,
> It being a new phone
> Battery, believe me, a55 cooks the s21 fe in battery, and also, most likely you might buy a refurbished s21fe, in that case a55 decimates in the battery timings.
According to recent GSMA review, a55 also DEFEATS s23fe in battery, "The only real advantage the Galaxy A55 has over its higher-end sibling is battery life.", yes its only 1 regard, but if Gsma, the largest mobile critique in the modern web, compares the A55 to the s23 fe,a STARTER FLAGSHIP, you shouldnt compare it with the 21fe. Software support on the 21 is far behind, etc.
> Sd card, upto 1tb
> Glass Back (100% over Plastic)
> Leagues ahead in Software support ( A18>>>A15)
> Seamless updates coming to A55 first, even before s24 series
also, s21fe wireless charging heats up a lot due to plastic back. No real point in using wc for this phone, besides, a55 5k MaH, 21fe 4.5k mAh, 500 Mah diff but VERY noticeable irl,
overall, get the a55, its better. Yes the SD S21fe may be faster, but the A55 is much more longevity and power efficient.
(and also, no americans getting this phone, unavailable in usa market, meaning no need to worry about mmWave or SD variant like a52s!)

I have the s21 FE 5G for almost two years now. The xynos one. Generally speaking it is a nice phone.
But I noticed that it over heats when I used it for a Zoom meeting for more than half an hour, it became very very hot and turned itself off to save the phone.
Also it overheats when I use it as a hot spot, it over heats and the battery drains very very fast. I don't play games in this phone so I don't know if it overheats or nor.

I really wanted to buy this phone for my daughter because at the moment the price dropped to 275eur, of course I need a plus for the charger, but this with the battery confuses me, so now I don't know what to do, the Samsung A54 , 270eur ,has a 5000mAh battery as an option, but people say that it is not really long-lasting, so I'm surprised my Honor 8x 3750mah battery is 5 years old and the battery lasts longer than what you're talking about, but give me your opinion wbecause she wants samsung which one I should buy for my daughter: the Samsung S21, which has better features, or the Samsung A54, which probably has a slightly better battery?

You don't have to "give" or even consent to give. They WILL milk your data. And you not being happy won't be of much importance either.
Moreover, no OEM can collect more than what Google does with its OS. So, essentially (AT MOST) they'll have "a copy of data" that Google already does.
And it's also not like Google is keeping your data in some safe. Its selling it off in the open market. Chinese having copies of some of it will only result in lower prices for the advertisers.
Unless your government gave you the responsibility of keeping the nuclear codes safe, this is all that can happen.

Just my bias but personally don't like Chinese branded phone and I think their UI is pretty poor. As for Nothing phone I don't have an opinion. Warranty service and long term software support are important for me if buying new, that's one advantage of buying more established brand like Samsung, Pixel and iPhone.
If you are buying used, and don't mind PayPal, try Swappa and select the filter option to disable business sellers, that give you a better chance of buying from original owner though be careful of zero rating sellers. I despise PayPal so I stopped using them, but you'll get better quality and price there.

still G.O.A.T. far more positive than A55 such as wireless charge, Samsung dex, better processor, telephoto, 4k60fps. Better save 200 euro on S21fe.

Updates seem to have slowed down, there is wide colour, contrast, white balance and HDR between the main and ultrawide cameras and battery capacity is only at 4800mAh. I'm not more into "performance"-driven phones as I don't do hardcore mobile gaming, vlogging, video editing, non-stop streaming on my phone.
I'd rather have a phone with a newer albeit "underpowered" custom chip (which means the dev team has some control over it which would mean more faster updates), a higher capacity 5000mAh battery, a slightly smaller and lighter footprint and affordable. And that is the Nothing Phone (2a).
