Hi! My name is Wade, and I make videos about all kinds of tech stuff. Looking for a new smartphone? Comparing some earbuds? Check out my videos - I'm sure there's something here for you 😊
I'm late to this party but thank you for the clarity, Wade. You never disappoint. I'm off to get my hands on one of these models---unlocked--whichever is the best deal.

The plastic edge is a big turn off, and so is the red color on the pull down menu, I hope that can be changed though, I hate red. The poor low light photos is a major problem, I think that is where the S and note series excel. What the bloody hell is TFT display??? 😡

For me the chin of the vast majority of Samsungs (and other Android manufacturers in general) is a total dealbreaker. If I was a Samsung user I’d have to drop a solid grand just for symmetrical bezels, or get a used S22/S23. Though, thankfully Android finally has more-affordable symmetrical phones like the Nothing Phone 2 and Google Pixel 8 Pro Meanwhile I’ve enjoyed the symmetrical bezels of my iPhone XR for over 4 years now and it only ran me $540, and whatever my next iPhone is, I’m guaranteed that same symmetry with even thinner bezels even on their cheapest non-SE model.

A55 is the perfect phone for seniors or peeps that just won't all the stuff on higher phones you won't use. the S23 FE is not mid-tier it cost 2x as much as the A55 on Amazon comparing 256mb versions the S23fe is $609 and the A55 is $389.

I only get flagships now and that's specifically because they will be supported for longer and hold up for YEARS especially if you're smart and just get the battery replaced every 2-3 years. I upgraded from my Note 20U and while it wasn't as worth it for the hardware and speed, it was for the software support. And if they aren't lying and my S24U will be supported with major OS updates for 7 years then I likely won't have a need for an upgrade for about that long. Only a major standout in the phone market would make me do that now.

Its sad to see west has become almost totally dependent on china for most of the gadgets and many more products. When they review, their dependency and laziness comes to mind. Has they been labourious and willing to work like in history, rest of the world would have got the next level products with great quality and no compromise. But sadly they became a buyer instead of supplier, loosing the due respect for the intelligence they genetically actually deserve. Products of destruction is one of the few segments which is an exception and where they still excel and dominate

Mainly I just want a phone with good battery life. I work doordash so my work phone is normally at anywhere from 10 to 30 percent at 3:00 p.m. depending on how busy the day is. A thermal camera or a night vision camera is never something I would have said I needed but you know what I need that now. Do I have a use for it? Absolutely not and I will find one.

The best deal in the smartphone market and I have been using Samsung phones for years now I will tell you that no matter what you have the best-updated phone when you can have an SD card for your videos, music, pictures, recording, etc that's awesome that's why I don't recommend people to buy any IPHONE because they have control of your media and I can't afford to loose my 500 videos and 5.000 songs and 10.000 pictures. I recommend this phone for the price nobody can beat the price for a great phone's.

So im happy the battery is quite good and i also like the design and it has whatapp which iphone doesn’t have. Can’t wait to receive it. Im excited 😊

If you plan to build a dual monitor setup with old Thunderbolt displays, you should take into account that the devices almost all have different brightness levels due to their age. Over the last few years I've had about 7 Thunderbolt displays and the brightness has been between 3,900 (almost yellow image) and 5,900 (pretty good white) lux. Apparently the displays burn out over the years depending on how heavily they're used. I measured 6,500 lux during the iMac 5K DIY monitor conversion.
