Needs a case
Upgraded from an A34.
Pros: good camera, battery is reasonable, slim.
Cons. No memory expansion. Camera sticks out so much it won't sit on a flat surface without a case. Phone is very slippery without case. Case isn't included. Any case makes the phone bulky so you loose the thin pro.

Missing Features-MicroSD card slots
Was very interested in upgrading to this phone until I researched & found that the phone has been downgraded & has no longer got MicroSD card slots so you are limited to 128 or 256GB internal memory, whichever you choose.
No longer interested in what I know consider to be downgrading my phone!

Great phone, highly recommended for the price
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup was very easy, my old phone was unusable but even so I could still transfer all my old data and settings making it a quick and easy process.
So far the battery life seems to be great, lasting a couple of days between charges without draining the battery too low.
The overall performance of the phone seems to be fast and the screen seems to be good quality even watching HD videos, etc.
The camera quality is also much much better especially in low light compared to my previous galaxy A51

I love it 😊
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old Samsung was getting very tired so I've found my new phone has well exceeded expectations. Lots of options to personalize, clear display, easy to use camera with lovely clear pix, perfect size for the pocket. The battery lasts and lasts, at least 3 days with moderate use so don't need to recharge daily and it has a stable connection to our Starlink.

Similar to my faithful A52 but much faster
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Similar to my A52 but much faster and packed with new features such as ESiM capable which is really useful when we travel. The phone was easy to change over. Did I mention it's fast?
