What's the best Samsung A series phone this year⁉️ ------ Ampere Dusk Sunglasses 😎: ampere.shop/products/dusk-electrochromic-smart-sunglasses Samsung Galaxy A23 (Amazon): amzn.to/3WfqVZP
Can you please do a visual graphics display comparison by way of RUclips, and UI smoothness between this phone - *_Samsung A23 5g vs. Motorola Moto G Stylus 5g 2022?_* I'd really like to see a side by side comparison between the two. It appears many people are interested in those factors between the two phones as well, but there doesn't seem to be any reviews featuring it. It would be extremely appreciated. Do let me know if you can possibly do so. Thank you kindly, TechDaily!
"Doesn't have anything removed?" I still have my Galaxy Lite in the drawer and it has home screen looping, FM Radio whereas this phone does not.🤷🏽♂️ But it does have a bunch of crap useless bells & whistles I don't have a use for. What is wrong with this picture?
I just got this phone a couple of days ago after switching carriers and got this one for free. So I figured I'd try it out and If I didn't like it I'd just go trade it in for something more mainstream. Honestly, this phone actually feels like a flagship device. Weight and all. I'm actually happy with this one and don't really see myself giving it up. I switched from iPhone since the iPhone 4s and I'm actually diggin the android now.
@@kathymac21 Boost Mobile has these phones for free if you are switching carriers. I am new to boost mobile, so I got this phone for only $99. It is the best phone in the world for $99 or free(if you are switching from another carrier) of course.
This video is an example of why I don't go by what some RUclips tech vloggers say. Because they make it seem like everything below a flagship is horrible. These are perfectly good devices at there respectable price points.
Definitely. Also, those tech RUclipsrs seem to forget that the S series doesn’t offer much value like they use to due to Samsung removing features. Also, The A series will be interesting to see next year especially if Samsung decides to use the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1, 6 Gen 1, and 7 Gen 1.
Agreed. It is sad that the Galaxy A series is offering more value than the S series. The S series has become more difficult to recommend due to Samsung removing features.
I bought my first A series phone (the A53) and im very impressed, i used to "chase flagships" but lost interest ,was still a bit nervous about "downgrading" , but I did not expect the A series to be as nice as it is
@@smartphonefan5226, I agree. As much as 🍎phones cost you'd think their least expensive ones would be bigger than what they are. I put my 2020 Moto G Stylus next to one while in the store yesterday and had to laugh at the differences in size compared to money spent.
I got mine just the other day and I gotta say I'm really honestly impressed. Yeah I guess if it is a budget phone the performance may or may not be the best of I've had no issues with it
I just got the a23 and so far I like it much better than what I've had before this. The pictures I've taken day and/or night turn out awesome. The speaker is plenty loud and size is great. I'm not sure where you all have bought this or when. I just paid $380 and thats NOT a cheap phone.
I just bought this phone that’s going to be shipped to me for a total of $10, quite a steal - honestly. But having this as a secondary unlocked phone could be very useful to throw all my photos and videos I want to save and keep, rather than keeping them all in my main phone. 🙂
The Bold N2 is on sale for $179 right now. 6.6' AMOLED 90hz display 8Gb ram 256Gb storage Mediatek Dimensity 810 5g chip The only downside is carrier compatibility limitations and it shipped with Android 11. But it's a heck of a package at an insane price for those who can use it.
yeah and there’s a reason why it’s on sale. it’s trash. trash software/software support, and has less accessories oh an android 11 The pixel 6a on sale is much better
@@lifeisshørt_420 I have to disagree with the software experience and accessories it comes with everything including air buds and case and charger and it's stock Android. Android 11 is a disappointment but many won't even know. And yes the pixel is a great deal but over a $120 more is a lot for some on a budget
I've had two Blu branded phones in the past and I can tell you right now, the specs literally mean nothing. I thought for what it came with it was the best thing for the price but no. Performance starts off good but gets worse over time. They're also terrible with software updates, which, I feel, is very important these days since many people don't upgrade every year. I'd say to only get this device if you don't plan on keeping it for more than a year/year and a half at most. The pixel may be slightly more expensive, but for an extra $120+, you'll definitely get your money's worth. I'd save up and go for the pixel over the Bold N2.
Had mine for over a year. Very impressed overall, with the exception of the camera. Battery life good, apps seem to run fine, and 5G gives me good speed most everywhere. Sadly, my old LG G6 had a much better camera, as did my older iPhones. As many have mentioned in various reviews, the fingerprint reader can be problematic at times, but usually a good cleaning on the reader and finger is all it needs.
I just bought one yesterday off eBay for $102 including tax, and free shipping. Open box.. but practically a new phone. Pretty much a steal at that price.
@@josereyesmotivationalspeak8104 With prices that low, I automatically know it will fail because it can't last that long, or fail because the executives are skimming off all the profits.
i just bought one on boost mobile it said $10.84 cents I did a double take and a quick read and yes one time payment of $10.84 cents when I called support to make sure it was not a typo she confirmed the price was low cause last time i purchased a boost phone was 2020 (iphone se) and it was a deal for loyal boost customers
It might be funny that I watched the video as I'm not even considering buying this phone since I currently have the f21 Altra but I still enjoy watching these videos and picking up little technical knowledge. Your video was very interesting and informative and it allows someone like me to be able to recommend a phone for somebody who simply wants one for communication and the fact that it takes photos and does other things is simply an extra. Tax return time is coming and I lot of people simply want to be able to know they can make a phone call and text and the phone will work anything else is a bonus and this certainly seems to be one of those phones. Sharing your videos allows people like me gain a little knowledge and actually know what I'm talkin about LOL. You are appreciated and have a friend in Columbus Ohio:-)
I've paid $1000+ in the past for smartphones and, after having them damaged & stolen after loosing my husband to CoVid pneumonia I had to try a more budget friendly phone and, so far so excellent I'm very pleased with my purchase!❤
What do you mean stop including the cable. You must be out of your mind. It sucks they don't include the charging brick anymore., but let them continue providing the cable.
Thanks for the great indepth review ! Im getting it as an avarage user without hi demands.. And it's still a great step up from my ancient S7 ;) Be well and happy. Peter Lunk
Best Reasons to buy A23 5G in 2024 Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 Yes it lags a bit but Does not overheat. TFT LCD very bright enough. Screen burn in marks is not a worry anymore plus 120 hurtz fast display. Fingerprint Security Lock and face unlock features. Battery is Superb 10/10 + SUPPORTS 25Watt fast charging. Dual Sim +SD Card Slot 3 of them can be inserted at the same time. No compromises. Unlike other devices if you need to use themmemory card slot U need 2 removed the 2nd sim. + 3.5mm Headphone Jack + it also supports USB OTG And Plastic Body that Bends Unlike the glass that break. IP68 rating for dust and water resistant is there too. NO WORRIES IN MAINTAINING THE BODY CONDITIONS OF THE PHONE. + it supports Dolby Atmos for a better sound quality. I'd rather get this devices than other samsung budget devices that doesn't have Snapdragon chipsets worse lag and overheating experience with Helio & Exynos CPU chipsets. I HOPE THIS HELPS FOR YO YOUR BUYING DECISIONS.
All photos he showed and had shot on A23 5g looks brilliant on my superb 10,5" Super AMOLED tablet screen, yet TechDaily complains quite a lot, why ? 🤔
I hustrecently got this phone its a good phone the battery is a BEAST an the speakers are pretty decent. You are so RIGHT about the charging not include it makes no sense Awesome Vid
as someone who loves wire headphones, I'd say that's the thing that separates the a23 to the a34, I don't like that they took the headphone jack out. seems cheaper to me even though it's more expensive
That's because of the Bluetooth take over. I prefer a set of headphones with a physical jack! The quality of Bluetooth vs Wired Headphones is something the users should have the option to choose between them. If you take out the jack, it's more likely a customer will buy the Samsung Bluetooth Earbuds.
Sounds like a good deal for you. Hope you like Boost better than I did. At their store I had great signal but at home 2.5 miles away on a hilltop I had crappy signal, dropped calls and a couple of other things I didn't like.
Anyone looking to buy this phone as their main phone, is certainly not too concerned with how well the gaming is. I'm sure someone who's budgeting that hard will be fine with the performance. That being said; got two of them for my young children. Long as it runs Roblox and Apex works, they're good.
I had the A53 5g. I loved that phone. But I got it wet and was informed by the repair guys that they can't repair it because the screen isn't replaceable. Not sure if they just lied to me or not, but I ended up buying a refurbished S9 + to get me through until I could buy another A53. Longer story short, I still have the S9+ and hate it. Miss my old A53 very much and the longer battery life. Is the A23 5g as good as the A53? I'm not interested in spending $500-$1000 on a phone, but I need it for GPS, planning/scheduling, conference calls and even zoom meetings. My A53 did all of that without issue, so I'm not sure if going with an A23 would be a downgrade or not. Can anyone help me figure that out? Tia 😊
Igot this phone for $100 for my father. It works good for what he needs. Ok camera, decent screen and it has enough memory for videos and browsing the web also gps navigation
Tech Daily I bought a A 23 5G months ago and like the phone a lot, really wanted the Samsung S 21, but a little more money now I have read S 21 price has gone down wish I could get it now, but too late!
HSN is offering this phone as a tracfone for their todays special $119.99 and it comes with a years service... it also includes car and wall chargers, case, bluetooth earbuds.
Mine is sitting on my desk, as I type. Great price and since I mainly read books on it, is use it as a phone, text once in a while, and look stuff up now and then, I'm sure I'll be more than happy.
I want to try the A33 5G but it doesn't have AOD even though it has amoled panel Samsung cut features here and there because of the price, yeah I get it.
I know. I absolutely love my A5 (2017) for it's size but after 5 years I finally cracked the screen and no updates for this phone since 2020 . I can find Chinese rugged phones under 6" in Canada, but regular phones are all 6.5 and up.
Due To Certain Circumstances And Extensive Exploring...This Maybe My Next Phone...I Currently Have The SAMSUNG GALAXY A03S I Purchased 3 Weeks Ago For Now...
I'm considering getting this to replace my ailing battery small screen iphone SE 2020 that I'm burnt out on for a variety of reasons. The newer ios versions have been increasingly glitchy, don't care for the small screen, HATE the apple autocorrect, no headphone jack or sd card slot, small battery that wasn't even good when new, don't like having to physically click the home button just to go to the home screen or leave an app. Although I have found the A32 5G 4gb ram/64gb rom a little cheaper online, not sure how much I'd like the blown up 720p resolution the A32 5g has on a big 6.5in screen or w/e it has. The A32 5g and also A23 5g seem just as good as my 2020 iphone SE at pics...it's not like my iphone even had night mode anyway nor anything more than a single camera, lol. Never really been one to be taking pics at night, and if I do, I'd use flash anyway. Maybe I'm just getting grumpy and frugal in my mid 30s but I genuinely shiver in disgust at the thought of ever paying $1000-1200+ just for a freaking phone lol. Some casual social media, IMing, texting, youtube, browsing, occasional call and occasional cat/yummy food pic are about the jist of what I do these days. I could get the tracfone A23 5g bundled with a year's worth of service for only $139 total
I would look for Samsung Galaxy A52 5G factory unlocked Amazon prime renewal program, Back market, Swappa, eBay , Samsung Galaxy A52S 5g is a good option, Samsung Galaxy S20 Fe unlocked Amazon prime renewal program, Back market, Swappa, EBay has gone down in price Samsung Galaxy S20 Fe can get android 13
I used to owe an A33 5g, and apart its amoled panel, the rest is crap. Exynos 1280 is laggy, battery life is horrible, fingerprint sensor is a nightmare to setup. I switched to an A23 5g and I have minimum of 2 days of battery life. Sometimes I observe some minor staters, but not a big deal. Very good photos in daylight, struggles a bit at night. But, who cares about night photos anyway…
This is going to sound like a dumb question But can you adjust the brightness? And can you display the battery percentage without the dropdown menu I didn't see an option in the video Thanks 👍
I just got my A23 after upgrading from my A32 which broke. I like it so far! Only compliant I got is no built in screen recorder, and no 4K support. From what I noticed
4K video recording is impossible as Snapdragon 695 doesn't support it. Nokia X30 a 400+ €/$ costing Amoled phone with a superb Samsung flagship main camera sensor can't record videos in 4K only because it has the same Snapdragon 696 chip.
@@blackgown7485my Xiaomi mi 11 Lite 5g NE has a screen recorder. It can record a video of your screen activity if you want that. Only time I have used it was when I made a video of how to use advanced features in the camera app, I sent that video to a relative who didn't know about it, so the video showed what I did on my screen and she understood it easily - first I had tried to explain it with words but she understood nothing 😮.
The Samsung A24 and Samsung A23 are both on my shopping list as they have two sim card slots and a SD Card Slot three slots instead of two is a win for me.
I Have A Galaxy A23 5G & it Works Pretty Good I'm About Too Buy The Motorola Moto G Stylus 4G LTE (2022) From Walmart it's $149 & It's Gonna Be My New Years Gift I Love All My Other Samsung Galaxy A Series I Also Have TCL Devices iPhones & Motorola & LG Devices I Also Have A Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G & It's Awesome Too Me I Definitely Love All My Phones & Tablets & iPads I'm A Techy Person As Well
You can get a s21 or pixel 6 pro renewed for around 300 which would be money better spent. But if you can get this for free on a trade it would be worth it
Remember There Are No Bad Products, Only Bad Prices. As a Result : "For $299 Xiaomi will offer you an incredible value, to the degree that you leave Samsung for GOOD."
i own a poco x3....the best phone i've ever used till date....bought it for 170$ in 2020 when it was launched ! it's considered a budget phone in the asian market and i'm from india...so that sums it up.....but 300$ for a samsung budget phone....is a little much...could've gone for 220 or 230 or something....but my poco x3 does an amazing job for the price....and it still does in 2023 ....as it's already 2 years old ! FHD+ 120 hz IPS LCD screen 450 nits brightness, 6.67 inches....snap 732G, 33 W fast charging, dual stereo speakers, 6000 mah battery, side mounted fingerprint sensor, cameras are okayish (i don't take any pics so that's not a bummer for me) what more do i need
I have seen the Pixel 6a for $299 or the UK equivalent, and the Pixel is a far better phone for those regions that sell it. I suggest OnePlus and other Chinese phones at this price. The A23 5G would be well down my list at this price, as 4GB is terrible. A straightforward no from me.
I'm watching this on an A22 4g which I had to choose between it and an A13(same price where I'm from), in my opinion Samsung has still not topped it's value since that was the best "budget" phone they have made in a while, I'll wait for the A24 😂😂
I have metro by T-Mobile and I cannot decide what samsung galaxy phone is the best? I got the a53 5g the other day and it's the worst phone ever, the battery sucks, it lags, and nothing loads and if it does it takes forever. I had the a32 5g one of the best phones I had ever had!!! Should I get the a33 5g? Or the moto g stylus 5g 2022? Help!!!!!! And metro by T-Mobile does not have much phone options which is disappointing
Go with the 54 it's better and it's not far from the s series the only thing that's sets it's apart is the speed which is only seconds apart performance wise and the camera is pretty good I might say

Man get an Iphone 11, u will thank me, i moved from android to ios, its more faster and more secure, android sucks at security bro trust me i will never ever change iphone
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.
The Samsung A23 looks absolutely brilliant better than the Samsung A24 and Samsung A25 as the Samsung A23 has two sim card slots and SD card slots. And a headphone jack. Might buy two as backup phone.
300$ for this? This is 150$ tops. Mono speaker, lcd lowest ram and storage and cpu isnt great. And it is all plastic. You get this one for free now where i live if you buy Fold5.
@DoNot Need I think it's a great update! The whole phone runs a lot smoother with no lags. My only concern is that the Google store security update is stuck on July 2022, but there are many other users with the same problem on various other phones, so hopefully, Samsung gets that fixed soon.
In my opinion it's not worth the money. I like my Moto G Stylus(2020, 2022) and my Redmi Note 12 a lot more. Plus they have TWICE the memory, FM Radio at a lower price. What's wrong with that picture? In my opinion my old Galaxy Lite is a better phone plus it has features that have been removed from the new phones.🤷🏼♂️🤦🏽♂️
I was down at the last second of buying those glasses as a payment plan, but then I realized, why the hell do I need this? I’m already wearing glasses anyways 😂 maybe not sunglasses but I definitely can’t see without my glasses on.
The a23 was absolutely awful for me and ended up being the reason I switched to iPhone. Before the 23 I had the samsung a20, which was actually great with its beautiful screen, snappy camera, good performance and etc. I was super happy with that phone and had it for nearly 3 years. I "upgraded" to the a23 after my a20 screen cracked. Absolutely the worst phone I've ever used. Off the top of my head here are some of the issues: Call quality and volume is terrible. Low, muffled sound during calls. Same with the crappy little mono speaker. Music sounds awful. The camera is ATROCIUS. I've watched other reviews and they alluded to this. The camera literally takes a good full 1 second+ from when you press the white button to when the shutter actually snaps. It's the slowest I've ever felt and makes pic taking awful. The a20 was much faster. The picture quality is also extremely bad. Videos are OK. The display, even though it's 120 hz and 1080p, is also disappointing. The blacks are like a medium grey color and the other colors are dull and lifeless. The text is not super sharp either. I compared it to an iPhone 11 screen (720 p, 60 hz) ans even with the lower specs the iPhone 11 blows this out of the water. Can anyone explain that?? The last thing I'll mention and the worst part is the performance. The phone is slow, stuttering constantly and lagging between even basic tasks. The keyboard randomly takes 3+ seconds to open. Apps randomly crash at an alarming rate. I can't remember the amount of times I've been using an app and the phone literally just closes it by itself out if nowhere. The a20 performed better in every single way. Do yourself a favor and do not buy this phone. Luckily I didn't spend a crazy amount on it because I got it thru my carrier but I still wasted my money. It's not even worth 99$. I will say the one good quality it has is battery life. You can get 2 days even with moderate to heavy use. With normal use it's usually over 50% at the end of the day. However what good is battery life when the phone experience is this awful....
Blue Tooth Speakers are cheap. So are ear decent earbuds. I dont really care about internal phone speaker other than call clarity. If its decent on Speaker im fine with it.
My boyfriend has the s22 ultra and he had an adapter where he can directly hook his phone to the TV without wifi, I believe it's program is called deX. Does anyone know why it doesn't work the same for my a23 5g? Or if/where I could get one that is compatible with the a23 5g?

Your video was very interesting and informative and it allows someone like me to be able to recommend a phone for somebody who simply wants one for communication and the fact that it takes photos and does other things is simply an extra. Tax return time is coming and I lot of people simply want to be able to know they can make a phone call and text and the phone will work anything else is a bonus and this certainly seems to be one of those phones. Sharing your videos allows people like me gain a little knowledge and actually know what I'm talkin about LOL. You are appreciated and have a friend in Columbus Ohio:-)
I enjoy mine. Happy Holidays Wade. Thanks for all of your reviews!
I've paid $1000+ in the past for smartphones and, after having them damaged & stolen after loosing my husband to CoVid pneumonia I had to try a more budget friendly phone and, so far so excellent I'm very pleased with my purchase!❤
Condolences 💐
What do you mean stop including the cable. You must be out of your mind. It sucks they don't include the charging brick anymore., but let them continue providing the cable.
Thanks for the great indepth review !
Im getting it as an avarage user without hi demands..
And it's still a great step up from my ancient S7 ;)
Be well and happy.

Best Reasons to buy A23 5G in 2024
Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 Yes it lags a bit but Does not overheat.
TFT LCD very bright enough. Screen burn in marks is not a worry anymore plus 120 hurtz fast display.
Fingerprint Security Lock
and face unlock features.
Battery is Superb 10/10
+ SUPPORTS 25Watt fast charging.
Dual Sim
+SD Card Slot
3 of them can be inserted at the same time. No compromises.
Unlike other devices if you need to use themmemory card slot U need 2 removed the 2nd sim.
+ 3.5mm Headphone Jack
+ it also supports USB OTG
And Plastic Body that Bends Unlike the glass that break. IP68 rating for dust and water resistant is there too. NO WORRIES IN MAINTAINING THE BODY CONDITIONS OF THE PHONE.
+ it supports Dolby Atmos for a better sound quality.
I'd rather get this devices than other samsung budget devices that doesn't have Snapdragon chipsets worse lag and overheating experience with Helio & Exynos CPU chipsets.
I HOPE THIS HELPS FOR YO YOUR BUYING DECISIONS.
A 52-S 5g 👑 "I have yet to be dethroned after all these years"!
12/12/22 just purchased for 449.00. What do I think? It is not worth the hype! AG53 - 5g.....
Would you recommend the Samsung Galaxy A23 5G or the A14 5G?
All photos he showed and had shot on A23 5g looks brilliant on my superb 10,5" Super AMOLED tablet screen, yet TechDaily complains quite a lot, why ? 🤔
I hustrecently got this phone its a good phone the battery is a BEAST an the speakers are pretty decent. You are so RIGHT about the charging not include it makes no sense Awesome Vid
as someone who loves wire headphones, I'd say that's the thing that separates the a23 to the a34, I don't like that they took the headphone jack out. seems cheaper to me even though it's more expensive
That's because of the Bluetooth take over. I prefer a set of headphones with a physical jack! The quality of Bluetooth vs Wired Headphones is something the users should have the option to choose between them. If you take out the jack, it's more likely a customer will buy the Samsung Bluetooth Earbuds.
I just got mine for 9.99 at boost today so it’s a great deal either way
Sounds like a good deal for you. Hope you like Boost better than I did. At their store I had great signal but at home 2.5 miles away on a hilltop I had crappy signal, dropped calls and a couple of other things I didn't like.
U mean u bought a Samsung A23 for £9.99 lol....thats crazy lol
Anyone looking to buy this phone as their main phone, is certainly not too concerned with how well the gaming is. I'm sure someone who's budgeting that hard will be fine with the performance.
That being said; got two of them for my young children. Long as it runs Roblox and Apex works, they're good.
It runs good
I had the A53 5g. I loved that phone. But I got it wet and was informed by the repair guys that they can't repair it because the screen isn't replaceable. Not sure if they just lied to me or not, but I ended up buying a refurbished S9 + to get me through until I could buy another A53. Longer story short, I still have the S9+ and hate it. Miss my old A53 very much and the longer battery life.
Is the A23 5g as good as the A53? I'm not interested in spending $500-$1000 on a phone, but I need it for GPS, planning/scheduling, conference calls and even zoom meetings. My A53 did all of that without issue, so I'm not sure if going with an A23 would be a downgrade or not. Can anyone help me figure that out? Tia 😊
I have an A23 5G and it’s one of the few phones I generally loved. It’s not perfect but it’ll definitely suit your needs
Igot this phone for $100 for my father. It works good for what he needs. Ok camera, decent screen and it has enough memory for videos and browsing the web also gps navigation
Picked mine up for 100 last week just wait a few months.
To go on about RAM but not mention RAM Plus is unfair especially since there's also a 1TB microSD slot. And this 5G phone comes with Gorilla glass.
Tech Daily I bought a A 23 5G months ago and like the phone a lot, really wanted the Samsung S 21, but a little more money now I have read S 21 price has gone down wish I could get it now, but too late!
HSN is offering this phone as a tracfone for their todays special $119.99 and it comes with a years service... it also includes car and wall chargers, case, bluetooth earbuds.
Mine is sitting on my desk, as I type. Great price and since I mainly read books on it, is use it as a phone, text once in a while, and look stuff up now and then, I'm sure I'll be more than happy.
I want to try the A33 5G but it doesn't have AOD even though it has amoled panel Samsung cut features here and there because of the price, yeah I get it.
I got this cell for my trip to South America since it is not so expensive and has a decent camera.
Great informative video!!
Thanks for taking the time to create it sir. 👏🏻
Performance?it has sd 695 5g processor which in terms of gaming is much better than the a33 exynous 1280.so what are you talking about that it’s slow?
Why doesn't Samsung make some smaller A series phones? They do with the vanilla S series.
I know. I absolutely love my A5 (2017) for it's size but after 5 years I finally cracked the screen and no updates for this phone since 2020 . I can find Chinese rugged phones under 6" in Canada, but regular phones are all 6.5 and up.
I don't mind. I'm nearsighted.
Due To Certain Circumstances And Extensive Exploring...This Maybe My Next Phone...I Currently Have The SAMSUNG GALAXY A03S I Purchased 3 Weeks Ago For Now...
I'm considering getting this to replace my ailing battery small screen iphone SE 2020 that I'm burnt out on for a variety of reasons. The newer ios versions have been increasingly glitchy, don't care for the small screen, HATE the apple autocorrect, no headphone jack or sd card slot, small battery that wasn't even good when new, don't like having to physically click the home button just to go to the home screen or leave an app. Although I have found the A32 5G 4gb ram/64gb rom a little cheaper online, not sure how much I'd like the blown up 720p resolution the A32 5g has on a big 6.5in screen or w/e it has. The A32 5g and also A23 5g seem just as good as my 2020 iphone SE at pics...it's not like my iphone even had night mode anyway nor anything more than a single camera, lol. Never really been one to be taking pics at night, and if I do, I'd use flash anyway. Maybe I'm just getting grumpy and frugal in my mid 30s but I genuinely shiver in disgust at the thought of ever paying $1000-1200+ just for a freaking phone lol. Some casual social media, IMing, texting, youtube, browsing, occasional call and occasional cat/yummy food pic are about the jist of what I do these days. I could get the tracfone A23 5g bundled with a year's worth of service for only $139 total
I would look for Samsung Galaxy A52 5G factory unlocked Amazon prime renewal program, Back market, Swappa, eBay , Samsung Galaxy A52S 5g is a good option, Samsung Galaxy S20 Fe unlocked Amazon prime renewal program, Back market, Swappa, EBay has gone down in price Samsung Galaxy S20 Fe can get android 13
Who update to Android 14 on Galaxy A23 5G
I used to owe an A33 5g, and apart its amoled panel, the rest is crap. Exynos 1280 is laggy, battery life is horrible, fingerprint sensor is a nightmare to setup. I switched to an A23 5g and I have minimum of 2 days of battery life. Sometimes I observe some minor staters, but not a big deal. Very good photos in daylight, struggles a bit at night. But, who cares about night photos anyway…
This is going to sound like a dumb question
But can you adjust the brightness?
And can you display the battery percentage without the dropdown menu
I didn't see an option in the video
Thanks 👍
I pickup the a14 5g for $200. It comes with Android 13/1UI 5.0 core out of the box.
I just got my A23 after upgrading from my A32 which broke.
I like it so far! Only compliant I got is no built in screen recorder, and no 4K support. From what I noticed
So you cant record vidoes?
Whats a screen recorder?
4K video recording is impossible as Snapdragon 695 doesn't support it. Nokia X30 a 400+ €/$ costing Amoled phone with a superb Samsung flagship main camera sensor can't record videos in 4K only because it has the same Snapdragon 696 chip.
@@blackgown7485my Xiaomi mi 11 Lite 5g NE has a screen recorder. It can record a video of your screen activity if you want that. Only time I have used it was when I made a video of how to use advanced features in the camera app, I sent that video to a relative who didn't know about it, so the video showed what I did on my screen and she understood it easily - first I had tried to explain it with words but she understood nothing 😮.
I’ve got the 4G A23 in Awesome Peach-strangely Samsung omits NFC on the A23 4G in Australia, reserving it for the 5G A23.
No problem. I've never had a use for NFC. My Motorola has a bunch of bells and whistles I have turned off because I don't have any use for them.
The Samsung A24 and Samsung A23 are both on my shopping list as they have two sim card slots and a SD Card Slot three slots instead of two is a win for me.
it is definitely annoying when samsung does not provide the charger.
I Have A Galaxy A23 5G & it Works Pretty Good I'm About Too Buy The Motorola Moto G Stylus 4G LTE (2022) From Walmart it's $149 & It's Gonna Be My New Years Gift I Love All My Other Samsung Galaxy A Series I Also Have TCL Devices iPhones & Motorola & LG Devices I Also Have A Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G & It's Awesome Too Me I Definitely Love All My Phones & Tablets & iPads I'm A Techy Person As Well
Why do you capitalize the first letter of every word? I'm just genuinely curious.
What's the difference between this and a a33
You can get a s21 or pixel 6 pro renewed for around 300 which would be money better spent. But if you can get this for free on a trade it would be worth it
Where can i get the s21 for around the same price? Thank you.

Hi
Great video Man once again Man great video!
Remember There Are No Bad Products, Only Bad Prices. As a Result :
"For $299 Xiaomi will offer you an incredible value, to the degree that you leave Samsung for GOOD."
i own a poco x3....the best phone i've ever used till date....bought it for 170$ in 2020 when it was launched ! it's considered a budget phone in the asian market and i'm from india...so that sums it up.....but 300$ for a samsung budget phone....is a little much...could've gone for 220 or 230 or something....but my poco x3 does an amazing job for the price....and it still does in 2023 ....as it's already 2 years old ! FHD+ 120 hz IPS LCD screen 450 nits brightness, 6.67 inches....snap 732G, 33 W fast charging, dual stereo speakers, 6000 mah battery, side mounted fingerprint sensor, cameras are okayish (i don't take any pics so that's not a bummer for me) what more do i need
I have seen the Pixel 6a for $299 or the UK equivalent, and the Pixel is a far better phone for those regions that sell it. I suggest OnePlus and other Chinese phones at this price. The A23 5G would be well down my list at this price, as 4GB is terrible. A straightforward no from me.
I'm watching this on an A22 4g which I had to choose between it and an A13(same price where I'm from), in my opinion Samsung has still not topped it's value since that was the best "budget" phone they have made in a while, I'll wait for the A24 😂😂
Agree, A22 4G still holds up well

I have metro by T-Mobile and I cannot decide what samsung galaxy phone is the best? I got the a53 5g the other day and it's the worst phone ever, the battery sucks, it lags, and nothing loads and if it does it takes forever. I had the a32 5g one of the best phones I had ever had!!! Should I get the a33 5g? Or the moto g stylus 5g 2022? Help!!!!!! And metro by T-Mobile does not have much phone options which is disappointing
I was thinking either a23 or a53 but I’m most likely gonna go with the a53 5g
Go with the 54 it's better and it's not far from the s series the only thing that's sets it's apart is the speed which is only seconds apart performance wise and the camera is pretty good I might say
I paid roughly almost 300 for it but it's worth it

S20 fe for sure
Man get an Iphone 11, u will thank me, i moved from android to ios,
its more faster and more secure, android sucks at security bro trust me i will never ever change iphone

I think i got scammed!! I paid $475 for this phone at cricket
U most definitely did
Asked for the Ampere sunglasses for Christmas!!
I just ordered a Samsung A23 5G for only 200 dollar, it´s a no brainer :-) Thank you for a great review.
I love watching your videos even tho I’m never going to use a android phone
With all the competition on these budget phones Samsung has to step their game up I would get a google 6A over this 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.
I still use this phone right now
Great phone.
Me too. Ppl hate it 😂 ..my only gripe is it gets hot
How's your phone right now? Is it still strong?@@reekhavoc2932
I love the colorful wallpaper. where can i download that at?
Cricket Wireless has a deal on this phone for $100 for new customers or $190 for current customers.
Please tell me where I can find this kool wallpaper you are showing?
Anyone look at the a23 5g should get the a33 5g.
What's up Wade bro how are you doing today Wade bro??
Finally they made glasses fun and interesting
Honestly I was so excited to try the sunglasses I’ve literally never seen a product like that before 😅
It must be remembered Samsung can't put to much into the A series phones otherwise people wouldn't but an S series phone.
The Samsung A23 looks absolutely brilliant better than the Samsung A24 and Samsung A25 as the Samsung A23 has two sim card slots and SD card slots. And a headphone jack. Might buy two as backup phone.
I hope it's decent, I got it for $50 with 1 month unlimited service, & 12gb hotspot from Boost Mobile
lol.. came here thinking about the A23 5G .. left here going to buy new sunglasses! :D
🤣😅🤣
What sizes micro SD does this phone take?
I hope it's good cuz I bought it without watching this review...lol
I just bought it for $150 at walmart
I like how the sponsored product costs just as much as the smartphone being reviewed here.
He totaly missed the one thing I watched the whole video for, Wide angle video.....Does it have the fish eye effect or not?
300$ for this? This is 150$ tops. Mono speaker, lcd lowest ram and storage and cpu isnt great. And it is all plastic. You get this one for free now where i live if you buy Fold5.
Is this a23 5g could be used with 4g
Yes
I got the Android 13 update a couple of days ago in UK
Do you like it or just still getting used to it?
@DoNot Need I think it's a great update! The whole phone runs a lot smoother with no lags. My only concern is that the Google store security update is stuck on July 2022, but there are many other users with the same problem on various other phones, so hopefully, Samsung gets that fixed soon.
In my opinion it's not worth the money. I like my Moto G Stylus(2020, 2022) and my Redmi Note 12 a lot more. Plus they have TWICE the memory, FM Radio at a lower price. What's wrong with that picture?
In my opinion my old Galaxy Lite is a better phone plus it has features that have been removed from the new phones.🤷🏼♂️🤦🏽♂️
I was down at the last second of buying those glasses as a payment plan, but then I realized, why the hell do I need this? I’m already wearing glasses anyways 😂 maybe not sunglasses but I definitely can’t see without my glasses on.
The a23 was absolutely awful for me and ended up being the reason I switched to iPhone.
Before the 23 I had the samsung a20, which was actually great with its beautiful screen, snappy camera, good performance and etc. I was super happy with that phone and had it for nearly 3 years.
I "upgraded" to the a23 after my a20 screen cracked. Absolutely the worst phone I've ever used. Off the top of my head here are some of the issues:
Call quality and volume is terrible. Low, muffled sound during calls. Same with the crappy little mono speaker. Music sounds awful.
The camera is ATROCIUS. I've watched other reviews and they alluded to this. The camera literally takes a good full 1 second+ from when you press the white button to when the shutter actually snaps. It's the slowest I've ever felt and makes pic taking awful. The a20 was much faster. The picture quality is also extremely bad. Videos are OK.
The display, even though it's 120 hz and 1080p, is also disappointing. The blacks are like a medium grey color and the other colors are dull and lifeless. The text is not super sharp either. I compared it to an iPhone 11 screen (720 p, 60 hz) ans even with the lower specs the iPhone 11 blows this out of the water. Can anyone explain that??
The last thing I'll mention and the worst part is the performance. The phone is slow, stuttering constantly and lagging between even basic tasks. The keyboard randomly takes 3+ seconds to open. Apps randomly crash at an alarming rate. I can't remember the amount of times I've been using an app and the phone literally just closes it by itself out if nowhere. The a20 performed better in every single way.
Do yourself a favor and do not buy this phone. Luckily I didn't spend a crazy amount on it because I got it thru my carrier but I still wasted my money. It's not even worth 99$.
I will say the one good quality it has is battery life. You can get 2 days even with moderate to heavy use. With normal use it's usually over 50% at the end of the day. However what good is battery life when the phone experience is this awful....
$300 is not budget friendly and not for majority of budget people.
Blue Tooth Speakers are cheap. So are ear decent earbuds. I dont really care about internal phone speaker other than call clarity. If its decent on Speaker im fine with it.
Woulda been nice if they kept the super amoled like with the a20.
is this faster that my Oppo Reno 4 Lite ?
Fortunately, I only paid $250 + rugged case + tax = just under $300.
Really good phone, good 5g signal, worth every penny
anyone know the Name of this Wallpaper ?
My boyfriend has the s22 ultra and he had an adapter where he can directly hook his phone to the TV without wifi, I believe it's program is called deX. Does anyone know why it doesn't work the same for my a23 5g? Or if/where I could get one that is compatible with the a23 5g?
On they 23 5g pull down from top bar press smart view it will go directly to your TV good luck from Ireland 😊
