Like man, you've already got what you wanted. What left is there to complain and beg about?

A compact budget phone would make much more money than the M/F/C devices ever will. But Samsung's decisions are often not based on money. Stupidity and individual decision maker hangups are often more determinitive.

Did anyone say they are, or do you just like creating strawman arguments that you can then knock down?
“Samsung does not owe you choice…”
Again, did anyone say they owe anyone anything? Does anyone on this forum owe you to obtain your consent before asking Samsung for something?
“nor will they ever listen to a bunch of loud, petulant folks…”
Buddy, go back to bullying your schoolkid friends in the playground and showing them your strong muscles and how tough you think you are.

Here we go again....
As a reminder, Samsung is a company. Not your friend, not your servant, and definitely not a genie. They make products whatever and however they want them to be. They couldn't care less if the M/F/C series attracts far less customers than the A and S series as long as it makes them money, however little that money is.
Samsung does not owe you choice, nor will they ever listen to a bunch of loud, petulant folks in such an inconsequential forum. And if you think they *should* have the ability to give you whatever you ask for, you have zero clue on how businesses work.
Just leave them be and find another company that does make an affordable compact phone. It may be from a company you don't necessarily like, or never even heard of before, but what other option do you have besides just going around repeating the same comment criticizing Samsung over and over?
Y'all sound like broken records at this point.

Anonymous, 05 Sep 2024That's right. Samsung takes their budget customers for... moreNeither do Xiaomi, who follows the exact same confusing decisions as Samsung, like making duplicates under the "Poco" branding, alongside only making one compact flagship and not a single compact mid-ranger in sight.
But Xiaomi users couldn't care less, because there's barely anyone in Xiaomi forums who criticizes their strategy and begs for them to make compact mid-rangers. You people keep bashing Samsung like they're the be all and end all of all phone companies who absolutely must give some of their customers special treatment. It's just silly.

The question is who do they WANT to cater to. And they don't want to cater to compact budget phone users. So those customers should stop supporting Samsung.

Hands get tired after 15 minutes of use, and it really weighed down my pocket. So I returned it and got the Pixel 6A which isn't perfect, but much better than the giant A55.

All exactly the same device with perhaps some slight modification in some of them. Each version for another country or two, maybe even just one city, or street. Who even knows.
This is what the brilliant Samsung is up to, and how they spend their free time. But even one new compact mid-range phone is obviously too much for them. Poor thing.

X6 pro is a great upper mid range phone if you can stomach big phones but I'll keep my s24 , wouldn't buy it full rpp tho thb.

That's more than enough for 6-7 years of usage compared to the cheapest variant of the Galaxy S24, despite the shorter software support span of Xiaomi phones.

Anonymous, 03 Sep 2024Maybe because Xiaomi and Poco don't have many users in... moreYou think? Xiaomi may not sell their phones in the US, but they're the world's #2 Android maker at the moment. They've shipped 42M phones in Q2 2024, which is just behind Apple at 45M, and Samsung at 53M.
They may have shipped 9M less phones than Samsung, but 42M is hardly a small number at all. And if you think it's because they don't release as many phones this year as Samsung, you're wrong. Xiaomi have so far released 25 phones in 2024, whereas Samsung have only released 17.
So what's the conclusion then? Xiaomi users don't care about compact phones as much as Samsung users, so hardly anyone asks for them to be made?

I don't know why it's listed as having a 256gb 12gb ram model on gsmarena because it doesn't exist as far as I'm aware.
