For the price range the A series in samsung is pretty awesome. Just like the detail and crisp review of the phone. Looking forward to more in depth review of upcoming phones.

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Yeah the value of the A series is hard to argue with!

@MikeyBats 4 года назад

For the price..this is incredible

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Yeah if you don't need NFC, you can get the international/latin america model for $260-ish. Such a great deal!

I am going to buy this phone I prefer plastic build than glass

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Interesting. I didn't realize how many people preferred plastic

@a.b1266 4 года назад

Yeah I get that, all this glass is over rated especially when nearly everyone just puts a case on anyway. 🤷🏻‍♂️.... Oh, and shout out to the good looking pupper in the pics.!😁👍🏻

@leonellthelion 4 года назад

Same. Love plastic too for as long as the OEM nails its implementation and Samsung's 'glasstic' is just perfect. 👍🏻

I got the 5G version of this a couple of weeks ago. I'm coming from an a50s and got tired of waiting for an "s" version of the a51 and the pixel 4a here in the UK and for what it's worth, I think the 5g version is the "s" version I've been waiting for. The Exynos 980 is a pretty great upgrade from the Exynos 9611.

@Awootoo 3 года назад

I'm considering the 5g version myself for the improved processor and extra ram, can you use this soley on the 4g network though? I'm in the uk too and don't have much 5g coverage where I live, thanks.

@SomethingSimpler 4 года назад

I think this more technical than your reviews typically are but it's really important to know at this point if the phone is running a 64-bit OS.

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

True! I typically avoid such technical details, but I should probably at least have included that in the description

I have this phone and I like it, but I'm coming from a Note 8. Dropped it twice and got the screen replaced for $29. Next time the back shattered as well. I have ALS so paying a lot of money doesn't make sense. My cover makes the camera bump go away.

@tizojiyane7350 4 года назад

My A70 came with a horrible fingerprint scanner, I even switched it off. After a few updates it started working flawlessly, now it actually has no issues and works perfectly. The position is on the low side though

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Yes, Samsung figured out that this was too low on the S10 and fixed the location on the S20, but not on these for some reason

@karthikkumar96 4 года назад

Best phone. Using this from 1 month. Its basically s series experience in budget

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Well said. It is a bit slower and less flagship-like of course, but otherwise a strikingly similar experience

@adeelk34 4 года назад

how's the cam quality of snapchat on this phone?

@mikecustoms 4 года назад

well I don't know about current s series since I was with huawei for a while but I remember my s6 being so much more polished than this 2020 phone, if this is what samsung is like nowadays, I'm just going to steer clear

I've had this phone for about 4 months now, and I've really liked it. The only problem I've had is its battery. I'm on my phone A LOT but I haven't ever struggled with batter like I have with this one :(

@ivanrenta4527 3 года назад

To slow down your battery you can lower the brightness and dont get a animated wallpaper

@harjassall4202 4 года назад

The cameras are high megapixels but Samsung uses pixel binning so it divides by 4 giving it less.

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

True, the pixel binning saves storage on your phone but you can also change the settings such that you are actually taking a 48MP photo

@jesuseliaslezamacontreras916 4 года назад

Great video Mark. One question. Do you think is worth the change from Note 10 Plus to S20 Pkus. Regards from Nicaragua!!!

@Awootoo 4 года назад

This is a great review! I'm considering this as an upgrade from my Samsung s8 but please could you tell me is it slow to open the camera app and is it slow to focus? I take a lot of pictures of my kids so need something that isn't laggy so I don't miss shots. Also would be great to see a comparison with the a71 as wondering if there is much of a speed difference between them as also considering that phone, thanks.

@DougClough 4 года назад

The camera app is great but it isn't as fast as my Notes before. Nice items with the phone.

@DougClough 4 года назад

You can do a multi frame and probably get your shot

I'm having OnePlus 6. It's a great phone but with a poor battery and it's gotten worse in last 2 years. I don't play games but I take pictures a lot and OP6 works very well with GCam. Is A51 a good replacement ?? I'm from India and I don't think we'll be getting 5G in next 2 years 😅

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Check out my Sennheiser PXC-550 ii review! They are my everyday ANC headphones, but they are a bit more expensive. If you are on a budget, Check out my budget headphones comparison from last fall. I believe 2 of those had ANC and were much cheaper (but of course the quality was much lower)

@seanfan1500 4 года назад

A good pixel 3a competitor?

@MikeOBrienMedia 4 года назад

Certainly a competitor. The screen is superior and the cameras have better numbers, but the Pixel image processing is hard to beat.

@nascar-fanjunkie5062 3 года назад

I own this phone and its not what ANY of these specs say. Its trash. Camera? Sucks. Its grainy, fuzzy, the auto focus sucks and makes even dark objects look to bright. Front facing camera? Looks like a 1 mega pixel camera. It sucks. Screen quality? Sucks. It has terrible bleed in issues and scratches waaay to easy. The plastic back sucks as well Storage? TRASH. 4GB of ram vanishes like money leaving your wallet. It uses ram for apps that are meaningless and using the optimize option does nothing cause it opens all of the apps again after using it and the ram space you freed up gets used right back up again. So it runs very slow and lags a lot. Only good thing about this phone is the battery. Thats all that's even good about this phone. Conclusion? Don't buy it. Do yourself a favor and spend your money on something that actually is worth it. Get a galaxy note 9. You can get it for the same price as this piece of garbage and you get flagship quality. Period. Your welcome

@nascar-fanjunkie5062 3 года назад

@@maneki9995 pretty much. I mean I sadly still own this phone and the experience just wasn't what I had hoped for. If I would've known it wasn't that great I would've just gotten Galaxy S9 or something.

@MrRiley-Is-Not-Amused 3 года назад

I assume both of you are used to using Flagship phones, am I correct? Sure sounds like it. If you're not used to midrange devices, don't buy one expecting flagship performance. Because you're not going to get it. This phone is awesome AS A MIDRANGER. People that attempt to compare it to a flagship are ignorant for doing so.
