ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES:
*Fingerprint speed test
*Camera test
*Speaker test
*App open test
PHYSICAL:
Display = 6.7” infinity-O Super AMOLED Plus 1080 x 2400
Minimal bezels
Processor = Snapdragon 730. Pretty snappy for $400
Headphone jack
25W fast charging
4500 mAh battery!
Colors = black, silver, blue, and pink
Dual SIM AND microSD card!
DOES have NFC
Aluminum rails and plastic back
CAMERAS:
32MP selfie camera?!
123 deg, 12MP ultrawide
64MP wide angle camera
5MP macro (for photos only)
*For videos, you cannot zoom between ultrawide and wide angle lenses and you can never use macro lens for video… strange
DOES have night mode (unlike cheaper A-series phones)
Shoots 4k30 on either side but no camera effects allowed
Supports AR Doodle
Slow motion at 240 or 960 fps
DON’T ZOOM! Take 64MP and then crop (it will be better)
SOFTWARE / INTERNALS
OneUI 2.0, and unlike A11, it does include most features (like screen record)
I recommend reducing animations
6 or 8GB RAM
PROS
Screen!!!
Comes with a screen protector already on it
Awesome battery
Price!!
Ultrawide camera in a budget phone :)
Super MEGAPIXELS in a budget phone!
Cameras are awesome for the most part. A jack of all trades, but an Ace of none
FM radio with wired headphones
Dual SIM with microSD card slot
CONS
Fingerprint sensor sucks
Fingerprint sensor is optical, NOT ultrasonic
Fingerprint sensor feels too low on the screen
Macro camera lens is useless to me
Ultrawide angle camera is weak
No IP rating
No wireless charging
Button layout is not my favorite
WHAT GEAR DO I USE?
My camera: amzn.to/2rxDZ09
My microphone: amzn.to/2Ias66q
My audio recorder: amzn.to/2rE8amz

    Samsung A71 is one of the best phone I have used in the recent past. I have used number of renowned phones like Oneplus 8, Oneplus 7, Samsung S20+….But this A71 comes across as a phone with a number of pros. First the screen/display…it is large and vibrant , fantastic for media consumption. Videos look so much better in A71 because of its big vibrant display and nearly invisible unobtrusive punch hole .You are never distracted by its punch hole. Then its battery backup. I don’t understand how it is so much better than Oneplus 7 and Oneplus 8 as these Oneplus phones suffer from heavy battery drain when idle. But in A71 there is hardly any battery drain when idle. Its weight distribution is fantastic, feels so light in hand inspite of 6.7 inch display…only 179 gms. Very rare to find these days. Realme and Xiaomi please note. Camera is superb & mindblowing as usual being a Samsung phone. It justifies the camera hype . In day to day work there is hardly any difference between A71 and Samsung S20+. They look almost same in appearance and performance if u like to overlook the antutu score. Lastly , the fastcharger in the box. It really charges the phone super super fast.

    October 2020 and I'm getting the 5G version of this phone as a replacement for my LG 6 phone which is having software issues with the charger port. I'm also switching cellular carriers and since I'm replacing a broken phone, I wanted to get 5G capable so that I can use that network when it's more widely available in 2021. Nice video, you covered everything I needed to know.

    Great video...I heard the punch hole camera was bigger because dude to the screen size on the A71 they had to make the space around the camera hole bigger. Had something to due with the super amoled display. The macro camera is completely unnecessary imo. I feel like all the companies are doing that because they want to say they have a quad camera setup...most of the flagships get the Telephoto instead of the macro

    Yes you are right. The A71 uses the Super Amoled Plus and not the Super Amoled. I believe it is thinner and requires the camera to be larger. I also agree with you that the macro is unnecessary. I have not seen a comment yet saying that they liked it or wanted it in flagships

    I had the note 10 with CRAP battery life. Had same issue on S10, note 8,9,10, s20 etc.and Fina,lly got tired of it and looked for a non exynos version. Found this one and was sceptical since i never bought a midrange phone, always flagships. I'm SUPER HAPPY with it. Good camera, never stutters ( exynos always stutters) IMPRESSIVE battery life. I paid 340 euros for it and it's a really good phone. For me the fingerprint sensor works even better. My 1000 euro Note 10 is in the drawer as backup phone. I really can recommend it.

I'm not a power user but the battery isn't that good to me but it does charge really fast which i like alot. i would like to turn bixby off but don't know how to do that. I'm a google guy. Love the cameras also. You can also have better sound if you plug in ear buds. You can add more base etc. Great price for the phone as i wouldn't pay 1000 dollars for a phone.

    This seems to be the nest honest review i have seen of this A71 thanks, so maybe you can help with my decision here!? I'm away to upgrade from my A50 next week and I'm torn between the Note 10 plus or the A71! I know what I want, the note 10 plus but is this A71 actually better now? I can't see it as before I was always flagship device's and know they have loads of extra wee features like multi room on bluetooth and wee things like that I miss coming to the A series! There missing quite alot of wee features but it's been ok over the past year! But today the note 10 plus and the A71 are the same price new so you can see my problem here !

    @@haiky8104 Well for one it made me realise how behind I was on technology!! It is a great phone that I find suits my needs. The camera is very good, the best shutter speed with sun but on lower light poor speeds and pictures are just okay. I have compared it to my brothers Iphone 11 and his pictures had more colour and depth but with some editing I got mine to look better in lower light. For taking pictures of moving objects like pets or your childrem, I appreciated the single take feature! I have some fantastic photos from single take!! I really like the phone, it is fast and the battery lasts a long time (I take good care of the battery too - dont leave charging over night, etc.) The screeen for watching youtube or netflix is fantastic too and Bixby is okay but some functions are cool like the Bixby routines or asking Bixby to turn on the flashlight.

    been using this phone for a year, first half almost by chance i used it alot for photos on hikes and my friends loved using it for the 64mp and the macro on plants. Second half roughly i had to use my phones processing and hardware more, contractor for fibre and router installations.. so camera here and there but having apps open, running tests and just general use was a ton more than just occasionally using it for anything other than photos or messaging really. Battery still holds strong although Tiktok absoluely demolishes it.. but no complaints anywhere. Previous phone was iphone 7 and A71 is much better, i cannot wait to get the A73 5G, its like a S22ultra minus the pen basically!

    Been using this for a month and gotta say its been really good. My main concerns are actually with fast charging, how long will it take to wear out the port and it gets loose and also the macro and night photos are pretty iffy. The wireless charging could save the usb port from wearing out. Switch to normal charging if you dont need it.

    fast charging wont damage it nor will leaving it overnight on fast charging. What will damage battery is heat and cold conditions. Your phone will always charge super fast when low but slows down alot once it hits 80% roughly as it would start to heat up then a bit. Best to do is always keep it room temp when possible, saves battery life for as long as possible, fast charging wont hurt it, been on fast charging for a year and a half and never had any battery issues.
