@@travelgo..4503 if you expect GOOd camera performance, either go for S series phones, other brands with Carl Zeiss lense or IPhone. For me, I don't find it that much great or that much bad.
Literally what happened to me! I spent hours at the store deciding the two phones and decided to choose A73. It has more benefits than S21 FE and much cheaper
same here i wanted the S line but no way I can live without an SD card. with the pix and video sizes (as well as all the apps that eat memory like FB, IG, etc) so big now the internal storage is not enough. its sad Samsung is going the way of apple and removing the SD card slot and esp on their high end line! doesnt make sense
I faced the same dilemma,too. Now I'm getting A73 5g because of the SD slot, battery life, the water proof and the alibility to deal with the heat better. the heat on S series is the deal breaker. It's a new trend that we are forced to accept the heat if we want to go for the high ends, which is so ridiculous.
Agreed, as a higher end A series phone I think it should have a beefier camera setup compared to the rest of the A series phones. Now it just has a few more megapixels across all the cameras pretty much
With regard to no 3X zoom, that was a commercial decision. When including it they had badly damaged sales of their Galaxy S line, in fact they lost around 47% sales in two years and clearly from a pure business perspective Samsung was clueless. They of course put in 3X zoom to gain ground in the mid range -v- rivals, but the unforeseen was that they ended up worse off due to consumers migrating en masse from the Galaxy S to Galaxy A. They have corrected this poor decision by killing the 3X zoom. Actions and reactions, Samsung are known to not see the bigger picture as others do. I mean it is pretty basic ideology, if you sell a phone at $400 with 90% of the features of phones selling at $1200 you are going to compete with your own brand which is borderline crazy!
At $500 for this phone I think even a 2x optical zoom would have been acceptable. If you want 3x optical and especially 10x optical then sure that can be reserved for Samsung's flagship phones.
Unrelated to the phone but at 07:00 That dog is so cute!! I'm thinking of buying the A53 or A73 after almost purchasing the S22+... I feel like the A73 might be the better option 🤷🏼♀️
I guess the A52s sold really well last year, since this is a very similar phone with basically the same specs with minor improvements...not complaining though, since the A52s was great
I bought the phone yesterday. An upgrade from my A71. And I'm honestly amazed by the leap in quality between the two phones. Worth every penny. I get 8GB Ram, 256 GB internal memory, 120 hz refresh rate, stunning displays, the dual speakers are just awesome. These are flagship features so I'll take them. It's honestly a good phone. And worth trying out for anyone who can't afford the flagships.
Bro i bought this phone tow days ago and i have problem with youtube quality 2160p60 hdr when i put this quality and my internet is little slow , video stopping and get me back to 480p quality ,did you have same problem try this and tell me answer please
@@hama_s Why would you watch 2160p on a phone with a 1080p screen? This is not a problem, your internet just isnt fast enough, and also useless going above 1080p, 1440p should be the max
about always on eating more battery percentage. since you took a trip, im assuming phone was inside car, facing the sun. which raises brightness so it can be readable in sunlight.
Hey Shane can you do a camera test between the Samsung Galaxy A52s, the Samsung Galaxy A53 and the Samsung Galaxy A73 because I just bought the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G I think that it has a great camera on it.
Great video If I imported the samsung a73 5g from abroad to the UK, would 5g connectivity still work, because i am thinking of buying for my dad Thank you
73 hours saw what you did there. Came close - went far as contacting sellers for it and my final choice. Once I placed the case in my pocket, too large hence final choice - sibling A53, since February 2023.
I would like to say, Samsung’s midrange phones like the A series are a really good deal right now. Samsung still win in terms of screen. They tend to get brighter under the sun unlike xiaomi and oneplus. But xiaomi and oneplus are more affordable though. But samsung’s screen is better.
I don't know if oneplus has improved but my brother and mom bought one of the budget models last year and both of them have had issues with receiving calls, calling and receiving pictures. Those bugs are still not fully fixed and they have tried switching sim-cards to new ones but it hasn't helped.
I was thinking of getting A73 until I found out that the photo quality is more to colder colour as compared with A53 which is warmer color. I would say the warmer color is more welcoming to most average people. Straight from phone to social media without extra editing needed.
I hope Samsung gets this one to the dutch market, sadly they haven't done that for some really strange reason and when i asked them via Facebook's messeger ap they say i must check the site..
No charger and no headphones. The a72 comes with both and is a great phone and just as fast. You need to spend 200 dollars more for a charger and wireless headphones. Maybe in the usa it makes sense. But in Asia there is no 5g yet. So the a72 is a better choice.
A72 is way better! With... Telephoto lens (optical zoom and 30x zoom) 120hz screen refresh rate Headphone jack 6.7 1080p super amoled plus display Expandable storage Affordable Macro lens IP68 water and dust resistance 5000mah battery Premium feel 32mp selfie camera 4k 60 video recording 108mp camera resolution
I'm using one. It's a pretty good phone but for the price; I am very disappointed with It's camera- that's the only downside, a shitty camera or else it's okay...
I’ve been using iPhone all this time and for a while now, I’m feeling like switching to Android but the better the phone is, the more expensive it gets and I can’t afford those. I’ve been thinking of either buying A53 or A73 for the starter of my Android journey and I can barely afford those models with the buyback stuff that Samsung provides as a student 😅 Should I go for the 53 or the 73? Currently I have iPhone 11, if it helps. Because I’ll switch from iPhone, the thing that I care about the most is speed and multitasking, then the battery, then the camera; the rest… I don’t really care about. What’d you suggest? A53 or A73?
I love my a73 but yeah it was a bummer not having a headphone jack since I always love to use wired headphones rather than the bluetooth ones.
I have A73. I also bought a USB C to 3 mm jack converter from Samsung. I paid 8 USD.
Bro how is your A73 Camera..
@@travelgo..4503 if you expect GOOd camera performance, either go for S series phones, other brands with Carl Zeiss lense or IPhone. For me, I don't find it that much great or that much bad.
Why not bluetooth headphones? Cables are not worthy. Why insisting on wires? This is not a downside.
How has the battery backup been?
I just bought this phone and I am learning the camera features and effects since there are so many.
You forget to mention 4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security updates ....
Can't wait for the Galaxy A73-73 years later review
Hahaha
Losing the jack in the higher end A series phone is a really big bummer for me.
I had to choose between S21 FE and A73 and I went with A73 because lack of SD slot was a deal breaker for me
Which phone network are you on? Thinking of getting A 73 but wanted to ensure no problems on T Mobile network

Having this phone for 6 months now and I love it
@n.imanthadesilva9700there are not a74 a73 is last 7
I have the previous A72 with a 3.5mm jack. If this is the last one with the 3.5mm, then it may well be my last Samsung.
Liked the 70 series phone much more when it had a telephoto lens.
Agreed, as a higher end A series phone I think it should have a beefier camera setup compared to the rest of the A series phones. Now it just has a few more megapixels across all the cameras pretty much
I paid basically $700 for my a73 in Australia recently I went from a52 to a53 5g now have the a73 5g I was flagship only but the a series are great
I'm also considering downgrading from Note/S series to A series.
At this point in my life, I do not need expensive phones.
I'm really happy with my A52s, it really has been a wonderful affordable device ❤️.
I am getting my new Samsung a73 Sunday it comes so I'll be looking forward using it I have a Samsung galaxy s21 fe and it's brilliant

Finally watching this with my a73 in 2024
Recommend this phone to my friend, and he is super happy. The A series is a winner
*only snapdragon model 🤓
This would be a great phone to recommend to anyone as long as they're OK with a larger phone
Samsung galaxy a73 or iPhone 11 pro max which one should I buy this year
I will never buy a Samsung phone without watching Shane Symons’s video on it.

There's usb-c wired headphones available
Will these release in the U.S.A? Have you heard anything about that yet? Thanks for any info!! Would love this device.

Loved the A72. Ever thought that they may want you to use the bluetooth/wi-fi ear buds instead of headphones??🤔🤔🤔
I have 2 questions:
1. What's the vibration feeling like compared to S22?
2. What's the speaker 🔊 sound compared to S22?
The vibration won’t be like s22 series
It will always have zzzzz pattern not like the flagships which have a haptic feel
@@dhyeyapatel S22 is not a series. It's a model in the S series.

Great content and video. Maybe less bouncing of the phone which I found quite annoying.

Great video

Thank you
Just make sure to check the bands it has and the bands available where you are. It works for me the US so it should work most places
it's like a52s with More battery?
Give me a break! It's year 2022! You still demand a headphone jack! Get over it dude! Gosh! 🙄🤦♂ You must be a very old aged UA-camr! 🤣
Well it's way better than my current a50 so can't complain 🤷.

We'll be with you to your journey to 1 mil !
The reason the A53 weighed more is because the processor was still lagging on your scale 😂. A73 looks solid though.
I really ❤ your content, I will stick to the 73’ version… ❤Thx again, you’re the best
Watching this from my A73
.
After using the Vivo X80 Pro with its 80W charger, I can't go back to that 25W charger.

Between $400 & $500 Rather More Reasonable For This Phone...

This is one definitely worth considering! Even in the future when the price drops and if the next generations aren't all that much different.

The battery seems to drain really fast, what am I doing wrong
Did Samsung discontinue the A7X line? I wonder If we can get this year 2024 an A75.
It was such a popular phone and they stopped offering it in the US at least

Hey can I use this phone with Verizon in America?
Hi no mention about night images or samples of it. Daylight photos likes great.
they remove headphone jacks on higher end phones so you buy their bluetooth devices, they know lower end phone buyers cant afford tht...
What's the difference with the depth lens in the a73?

how’s the camera zoom quality?
I have it too 😊
I bought the 256GB Version its a beast
