    FE no longer stands for "Fan Edition" and I think that's correct. Should have been called S23 Lite IMHO. This isn't for a fan rather it is for someone like my wife who recently got this: Perfect for someone who is not obsessed by "state-of-the-art" but still wants high quality. The battery probably is 4500, due to the enhanced cooling inside. That keeps the FE cooler than last year's S22 (BTW, my wife has the Snapdragon issue being in the U.S.) and it easily lasts her well over a day and a half. My take? I have the s23 (6.1" as I prefer compact phones) - when I use my wife's FE I notice very little difference in display quality, quickness/smooth operation, or anything else. The cameras are fine, but then neither of us are pro photographers I agree that the fingerprint sensor is set a bit too low, prefer where it is on the s23, but although it is optical vs. ultrasonic, it is responsive and accurate. Not thrilled with the bezels, but in all truth, once I'm using it I quickly lose notice. Size-wise the FE is right on par with both the A54 and the s23 +, so unless you want a smaller phone (like me), size should be no issue. It is a "not quite" flagship phone that is a cut above mid-range phones such as the A54. How you buy it matters! With a trade in through our carrier, the price differential from the A54 was not all that much.

    I have a question why can't i get the color mint in 256gb at metro or Verizon? Those are the two things i use also best buy.
    Is it because its sold out ir don't have it in 256gb? I haven't gotten a new phone for a while now and i just wanna do my research

    • @NasiLemakTech
      @NasiLemakTech  7 месяцев назад

      Wow, OnePlus 3T.
      There are quite a lot of good choices, assuming that you can get them at a discount.
      My top choices are Galaxy S23 Ultra and the OnePlus 11

    Well I already order it yesterday, just waiting to arrive. I don't play game on phone that much, I game only when I travel far but only light game like Sudoku, etc just to kill time, most of the time I game on PC/Console when I'm home. I will still try running aethersx2 with this phone tho. They gave me gaming package because I buy Indigo color which maybe I will use it for steamlink and remoteplay. I probably record the unboxing in a few days (just don't hope for high quality video). Why I chose this over base S23? Base S23 still $200 more expensive in Indonesia (with 128GB storage) and I don't like 6.1" phone because my hands a bit big and S23+ is way more expensive. Why not Xiaomi or other brands? Believe me, in this price range I don't think I have any other choice for all rounder phone (unless you wanna buy 2nd hand phone or chinese phone). I also don't like buying 2nd hand phone, so many bad experience with it. Also if this phone breaks in the future, the sparepart still way cheaper than S22 & S21 FE. I was planned to pre-ordered S24+/S24 Ultra next year but I change my mind, because I need to save some money for next year of my life and buy PS5. This is my second FE phone after Note FE. So I'm just glad they still release the FE. I mean it still have flagship performance (an improved Exynos 2200 of a year old flagship), no matter how old your phone if it'a flagship, it will always be a flagship. The phone value is not always about how it can game.

      Processor S23 FE 2x lebih baik dari A54 dan punya kamera lebih baik juga, so I think we can justify the S23 FE price for the features, performances and materials. Saya juga baru order, jarang ngegame pake smartphone jadi bukan penilaian utama. S23 FE ini juga kan sebetulnya versi perbaikan dari S22. Bingung kenapa kok malah di bandingin sama A54 cuma karena bentuknya sama.

      Hmm, in between I think. I will say my wife's s23 FE feels and performs pretty much on par with my s23 - I don't notice much difference outside of the bezels and the low placement of the optical thumb reader. Definitely a cut above mid-range such as the A54.
