You can put on one side of the sim tray a sd card and the sim card on the other side😊or you can use 2 diferent sim cards. And have the headphones jack also
I can't believe how no expandable storage has become the default for $1000 flagship phones. Glad at least the smaller devices are still going strong in that regard.
At 1000 dollars, flagships already have at least 256 GB of storage. Also, Android is becoming less and less supportive of external storage. I remember the days when apps can be stored on external MicroSD. Now, some apps can't even have permission to read it. The MicroSD experience on modern Android is abysmal. It's basically an integrated external storage only for data.
@Azu10157 the base one is indeed very expensive for the storage offered. That said, the original comment focused on 1000 dollars phone. Also, Samsung offered storage upgrades during the pre-order era. You automatically get bumped one level higher.
even though i set my camera roll to SD, Samsung decided it was a good idea to make multiple folders with the name camera in it as its own camera fold in my note 20ultra, of course it was no longer on the sd card either @@bltzcstrnx

The importance of OS updates is greatly overrated. Phones don't self-destruct if they are not running the latest OS and there's not that many differences between the old and the new nowadays anyway I'm using a Moto Edge 2022 and I JUST GOT Android 13(!!) a couple of weeks ago😂.

I don't care about how long the company supports a phone if I don't like using it in the first place. Apps still get their updates from the store so it's all good as far as I'm concerned. Phones today can run for a long time on Old OS with no issues.

Does the A25 actually offer anything more than the a15? 🤔 A headphone jack, expandable storage and that buttoned fingerprint sensor are alot better than what the S- or higher A- linup offers.
At least on the US version of the A15 5G it has a Mediatek G99 SOC and 8GB of RAM it seems it performs decently well in my own experience but I also have an iPhone 15 Pro Max as my main device i just like having these phones as a back up with an SD card and a headphone jack.
I have a J3 pro and I've been using it for 6 years and it's just started to annoy me so I've been thinking of getting an A series phone but kinda stuck between A15, A35, A54. I pointed out having an old phone because pretty much anything new would feel better than this the moment i buy it so why pay more if cheaper ones would also be good. But I just wanna have good camera and a phone as durable as mine so which phone do you think would be the best for me?
I honestly find it quite offending how Samsung and Google build more affordable phones with intentionally bigger bezels than anything we have ever seen before that. Just look back a couple of years. No cheap phone had such ridiculously thick side bezels. It is baffeling to what lenghts they go just to make people feel ashamed for owning a cheap phone.
My current phone is A51 4G. Is the A15 a significant hardware upgrade compared to the A51? I'm not a "phone person," I seriously almost never use my phone. However I think it just recently got the last security update it will get and I AM (slightly) concerned about security. I know the A15 will received 3 or 4 OS updates plus an additional year or two of security updates.
Hardware wise it's worse in many ways (e.g 6Gb vs 4Gb RAM, worse Chipset etc). However I also have an A51 and I've noticed it slow down recently- if you're desperate for an upgrade and aren't a heavy phone user then it's a good option.
Funny story about me when I bought Galaxy A53. While (almost) everything that A53 is similar to A33, the only reason I bought A53 was the display... less chin and camera dot (or as Samsung's marketing infinity-O) If only mid-range Samsung has simetrical display, or at least less chin, I am okay with lower spec phone since I am not a heavy Phone user. My ideal phone for mid-low range is having 4 years update, simetrical display which I am okay with thicker bezel if only it is more symmetrical, 8GB RAM, UFS 2.1 at least, WiFi 6, around 4500 mAh battery, 1 camera a good camera (I don't really care about zoom or macro or ultrawide), USB-C, Infinjty-O, at least 90 Hz display with at least 120Hz touch sampling rate, Full HD Amoled that can playback HDR in Streaming platforms. For SoC, I don't care as long as it is efficient for 1,5 days battery and not lagging when browsing websites or when moving between 2-3 apps.
But the same phone has a helio g99 here which is a very capable chip. And you do have 6/8gb options. Im confused. Are there different variants of the phone in different regions?
I just need a 2th phone bcs i have a s23+ rn and dont want ro use it mutch to ceep it in good shape. I watch youtube alot when i sleep when i work or when i dart. And i need a 2th phone saw this one in yellow i love yellow. Do you recoment it for just youtube and few games
I have just bought the Samsung A15 4G 128GB it looks great. But the only problem is thst it has not got the same three tray Sim card and Micro SD Card slot as the Samsung A10, Samsung AO5s and Samsung A12. I have recently lost the my Samsung A10 and I thought the Samsung A15 4G128GB would have. So i might keep it and use it as a second on the go photography editing tablet for my street photography to go alongside my Android tablet and purchase the Samsung A12 4G like someone I know does so I can put my two my Sim Cards and micro SD Card insife it all at once.
I have the 4g version, but it's 8gb ram with the mediatek helio g99, and it performs much better than what you went through(poor performance on your model is also due to poor optimization)
THIS phone is what drives Galaxy sales not the S nor Z series., whats mind blowing though crApple finally overtook Scamsung last 2023 considering that iPhones don’t have anything in its price range to compete with mid range market not like the A series 🤯🤯
Can this phone be used in the USA with a SIM from a network outside the USA? My phone that I was using for my congo sim broke down. and I wanted to buy this Samsung A15 for my congo sim. will it work? note that I am in the USA. THANKS
as a casual gamer. which is better? a15 or m34. does dimensity 6100+ really perform miles better than than exynos 1280? i have been stuck in this indecision for days. I domt care about camera. just purely performance and long term usage
Lost an s21 fe & had to get this for the time being. A bit slow performing but its an okay phone with very good battery, will definitely be getting an s23 mini or + but the S models have a really bad battery 😢
It is so shame that Samsung has changed it to hybrid slot rather than dedicated sd card slot as in previous A14. Then this would have been a great phone for people with low cash.

second this

My ideal phone for mid-low range is having 4 years update, simetrical display which I am okay with thicker bezel if only it is more symmetrical, 8GB RAM, UFS 2.1 at least, WiFi 6, around 4500 mAh battery, 1 camera a good camera (I don't really care about zoom or macro or ultrawide), USB-C, Infinjty-O, at least 90 Hz display with at least 120Hz touch sampling rate, Full HD Amoled that can playback HDR in Streaming platforms.
For SoC, I don't care as long as it is efficient for 1,5 days battery and not lagging when browsing websites or when moving between 2-3 apps.
You just described a Poco X6 Pro.
@@bapbernardo Poco has amazing hardware, yet its software is unbearable. Updates are inconsistent, and advertisements are splattered everywhere.
But the same phone has a helio g99 here which is a very capable chip. And you do have 6/8gb options. Im confused. Are there different variants of the phone in different regions?
Yeah 🎉
I have no slowdown using this phone. I'm even able to run Dolphin the GameCube emulator quite well.
Hey Uncle Spurt that Samsung Galaxy A15 5G phone looks really cool I have the Samsung Galaxy A14 it's a great phone.
If you have an iphone 11 in need of a battery replacement, is this phone a good replacement or just get a new battery?
Get a new battery
Keep the iPhone this phone is awful so laggy
I just need a 2th phone bcs i have a s23+ rn and dont want ro use it mutch to ceep it in good shape. I watch youtube alot when i sleep when i work or when i dart. And i need a 2th phone saw this one in yellow i love yellow. Do you recoment it for just youtube and few games
I actually went to a phone store to see the price it is 125$ now holy moly is it a value for the money, definitely getting the a15 soon
Overall seems like a solid phone, especially for the price. I am finding that the a15 4g is faster and smoother than the 5g though...
I have just bought the Samsung A15 4G 128GB it looks great. But the only problem is thst it has not got the same three tray Sim card and Micro SD Card slot as the Samsung A10, Samsung AO5s and Samsung A12.
I have recently lost the my Samsung A10 and I thought the Samsung A15 4G128GB would have.
So i might keep it and use it as a second on the go photography editing tablet for my street photography to go alongside my Android tablet and purchase the Samsung A12 4G like someone I know does so I can put my two my Sim Cards and micro SD Card insife it all at once.
Just got mine yesterday mahn samsung really did a great job here
Worth considering A345g too various dealsvover time have seen it at this price.
Is this running full oneui or oneui core?
Key question. I'm all for paying less, I don't need power but do want an OS I'm used to (currently oneui 6 on my old S9 via a rom)
Oneui
Full
One UI. Not core.
It is now 110£ here in Poland (4G version) and for this price is a killer phone for basic use. Wish it had stereo to complete the package.
It's a budget phone
Does it support 4k (2160p) video playing on RUclips?
Only 1440p
Yes it plays 2160p it's got a super amoled screen previous reply is incorrect. I owne this phone. 🇬🇧
@@AndrewDaley-lr9qg Shut up you liar, the phone only works 2k not 4k
@@speculatiirealewrong it will play 2160p if you know what to do. Oh and watch your mouth. You don't know everything. 🇬🇧
I have the 4g version, but it's 8gb ram with the mediatek helio g99, and it performs much better than what you went through(poor performance on your model is also due to poor optimization)
got the s10e wil the a15 be a upgrade>? have no clue about phone specs only play pokemon go on it and epic 7
Sadly it will be downgrade in every aspect other than battery
THIS phone is what drives Galaxy sales not the S nor Z series., whats mind blowing though crApple finally overtook Scamsung last 2023 considering that iPhones don’t have anything in its price range to compete with mid range market not like the A series 🤯🤯
I want to know if Samsung A15 will also have Samsung Cloud Back up, like we have on the Flagship Phones
Yes
Bigger battery than the actual flagships 😂😂😂
There is a 6GB model btw as i have seen them on carphone warehouse
Get it 4 it not really enough
I wonder if the 128Gb/6GB version is doing better performance?
It's quite a journey transferring from note series into A series tbh 😅 please help
Is there a better phone for the price that you can recommend? Thanks!
Theres none
Can this phone be used in the USA with a SIM from a network outside the USA?
My phone that I was using for my congo sim broke down. and I wanted to buy this Samsung A15 for my congo sim. will it work? note that I am in the USA. THANKS
With the Motorola G84 now at that price, would you say it's the better choice? Thanks!
Moto are terrible with android updates and sec patches.
Amolod is the best upgrade for this model from previous a14.
Please how many years of software update for the A15
4 major os update up to android 18
And 5 years of security updates. 🇬🇧
Solid phone this one, 6gb ram and zero lag
I had the A13 and A14. I may buy the A15 when it becomes cheaper.
If your in the UK. It's now £150 at argos.
@@andrewdaley5480 I'm in the usa. The A15 is still more than what I want to pay. I paid $99 for my A14.
as a casual gamer.
which is better?
a15 or m34.
does dimensity 6100+ really perform miles better than than exynos 1280?
i have been stuck in this indecision for days.
I domt care about camera.
just purely performance and long term usage
for 8gb 128gb versions.
some help is appreciated
my current phone is 4 years old.m30.
4gb version
What kind of game? And how much do you want to spend?
@@Dr.Akakia fgo,epic seven,honkai impact 3 etc.
looks like we gt new option
f15 and m15
almost same as a15 but cheàper
Lost an s21 fe & had to get this for the time being. A bit slow performing but its an okay phone with very good battery, will definitely be getting an s23 mini or + but the S models have a really bad battery 😢
Where do keep finding some of the good Anime Wallpapers
It is so shame that Samsung has changed it to hybrid slot rather than dedicated sd card slot as in previous A14. Then this would have been a great phone for people with low cash.
i bought the 8gb ram version for my mom. and now i want one for myself as well
Choosing between A15 and A25. Which one would ypu recommend?
6GB not 4 and 2 stereo speakers
Lovely Kana wallpaper 💓
When I googled it I was told that this phone supports wi fi charging and is QI compatible is that correct?
Nice video again 👍 May I ask where do you get your wallpapers from?
I swll phones storage sd card slot is a huge deal breaker... most customers rather a midrange with expandable storage
This is the second most sold Samsung in 2024 Q1 right behind the 24 ultra.
I am somewhat highly annoyed with the notch 😂 I would very much prefer a slightly shorter straightlined display.
Hope samsung continue to make phones like this whith phone jack😊
No I find the apps are fine and the camera is absolutely fine
Where do you get your wallpapers?
