This review is absolutely amazing! I bought this phone for my mom and right after saw a bunch of negative reviews online - but really after watching this one I realize those are just from unknowledgeable people. This phone is excellent for it's price, really impressive in my opinion.
I really like your content man, in a world full of guys doing expensive and overly priced phones it's so rare to find someone like you, I really want your channel to grow ❤️
Your videos are great im not even planning on buying any midrangers since i actually use s20 fe but it's interesting to see how other phones are doing. I'm glad you finally made a vid again
Great review! Thank you! I have one of these phones and am really very happy with it. I've migrated from iPhone to this... basically I refuse to spend thousands on a device when all I use it for is email, browsing and some social media. This phone does more than the older iPhones and performs better - so unless you game on the phone - why bother with something more expensive? The camera is good enough and the only time I ever listen to music using this device, is in the car, via my infotainment setup, and using my JBL headphones - so the speaker really doesn't matter. Voicenotes are audible enough. Highly recommend this phone and again, thank you for your detailed review!
Thanks! I searched here and there to come to know that it has One UI or One UI Core. However, I didn't find it until I stumbled upon your video with a timestamp. That's why I clicked; otherwise, I wouldn't have clicked if it didn't have a timestamp. So, thank you so much!❤❤❤
Had mine a week now and it's awesome. I've updated to Android 14 One UI 6.0. I turned off the 90htz refresh rate to 60, and turned on power saving mode, and disabled animations, (which has made the phone much faster) with no impact on the performance at all, and the battery lasts twice as long - you can thanke later. Wasn't aware of the force apps to sd, so I've done that, tks. It's great that you can move most apps to the sd, and uninstall others you don't want. It's good that Samsung is listening to their customers. Great review, tks. Edit: My speaker doesn't sound bad at all, and the volume is sufficient.
Thanks for this review. I dropped my s10+ and to fix its screen was a similar cost to this A05s. It has its limits but I am happy with it. I may repair my s10 later as a spare.
@@windegochannel3591 Not true, in a few years from now all the midrange device will surpass the S10+ in terms of performance which is to be expected as the technology gets better each year
You have been very concise with your video. I was looking for reviews for this phone and yours have exceeded my expectations, thanks and keep up the good work.
I like it when review every single part of a smartphone review the mainstream tech reviews are not very detailed fame gets to there head good work kelvin 👏
Forget the quality of this review. I am just shocked to see how good a photographer you are. I am in awe. I watch Photographers videos daily to learn about Photogrpahy but you have some extra ordinrary skills in Photography (Mashallah). Liked and subcribed.
Brilliant review counting every aspect of the phone in great detail. Got this phone to use instead of my Samsung Fold while trekking in the mountains and it does not disappoint.
i was going through the contents of the video and was hoping to see if genshin is okay with it- you put so much effort in this video and gained a sub!! keep it up
Seeing that Lazada app makes me think that you're a Filipino 🤣🤣🤣 anyway, it's nice to see you back and you're the one whom I wait to review this phone. 🎉
First time I watch your videos, best review I have seen in a long time, I love the fact you showed screen on time great job and great phone I would buy.
Just discovered the channel and i love it, didn't even knew that people already had the A05. Would be interesting to see you doing a review on the S21 FE (totally not because i'm planning on buying one and want extra information 👀).
This phone looks really solid to be a budget device, you should cover the A15 5g and the A16 5g too. Great review! From one bearded guy to another, nice beard 👍
I just bought the galaxy A04s like a month ago and it's the best phone I've had (I'm a budget buyer) and I like the 50mp camera and 10x zoo on 12mp camera mode but no night mode unfortunately but I'd like a taste of a mid tier or flagship phone one day. This phone ao5s seems ok 👍
All important points made, all negatives mentioned, clear and concise explanations. Well done review! And guess what? I am going to buy it. For the money I can easily live with the minus points.
@@annepakiam8922 I bought it and I am very satisfied. The screen is not the brightest, but it only "fails" in bright sunlight. Anywhere else it is alright. The battery life is good for me. Function-wise, it did not stutter, stumble or crash in the weeks since I have it. The phone's feel and build quality is not high level, but acceptable. It is sure adequate for the money. The device is simple and has what it needs for convenient usage. To my opinion it is the best mobile I could get at this price point at this time. I paid USD 135 for the 4 Gb. For comparison, my wife has a Nokia in the same price range. The screen is better and the device is sturdier, is better haptically feel. But the battery life is like 1 day only, and the SOC is slower. My own Xiaomi is technically better, but does not work as solid as the above two.
buy atleast a midrange trust me, these budget phones will last you 6 months before making it nearly unusable, midrange nowadays beat some flagships and last many years and are supported for updates for many years aswell
@@annepakiam8922 I bought it 2 months ago, I am happy with it. I don't game with the phone so it's all I need. The screen is nice, and for me not dark. I miss a few lux only in bright sun light. It does leave a positive impression with me after these two months. There is some junk on it but with few exception most can be removed. 4 years update guarantee in my country! Is that nothing? To me this device has a better value than all the low cost Xiaomis.
There is an M15 now The same specs as A15 but has 6000mlA battery, and someone on UA-cam made a battery drain test with this M15 and it lasted for nearly 17 hours of screen on time of continuous You Tube playback (no games or other tasks just You Tube) this is amazing and a flagship may not last as long as this . @jjjnani
Hey Kevin. I bought the phone after this great review. Everything is spot on although after the android 14 update Graphics are capped to low when playing call of duty mobile. But the refresh rate is now adaptive. Thank you for straight to the point accurate reviews. Watching from south africa
Got mine the exact same model, it's not designed specifically for gaming but for an average use, it's been giving a satisfying experience, it has a good performance for a budget phone of samsung
I. 6.7 Inch Display [Above The 6.6 Inch I Prefer] II. [At Least]5000mAh Battery III. Qualcomm/Snapdragon 680 IV. 50MP Camera... And Absolutely Splendid Phone Indeed...
I need a new phone and this one is just great for a budget phone. Too bad it's not available in Canada yet and don't know when it's coming out. Gonna have to get the A14 4G for now.
I couldn't help but notice you mention dark mode benefits battery life, but that only applies to OLED or mini LED displays. I believe plain white color actually draws less power on LCD. Therefore I'm curious to see the new A15, which is the first A10 series phone that will feature an OLED display.
I am wondering it didn't mention any stereo speakers it seems like only one allowed speaker at the bottom and I have an a14 since the update you can play on 1440
Thank you for storage test. It means it have UFS 2.1 or UFS 2.2. A lot of sites says that it have eMMC type of storage. But it have much better - UFS 2.1-2.2
I would love a mix of this and the A15... About all of the A15 with the triple slot of this device. Here in germany they are offered at about 10€ difference. P.s... What music player app do you use?

BULLSHIT REVIEW!!!
Welcome back! And as always, a very well done review.
Thank you!
low end phones are becoming the new mid range
Mid range phones are becoming the new flagship
And flagships are pretty much......meh
Really impressed with this detailed review. So easy to understand and got all information I need.👌
Great video. You covered everything the common person needs to know. Keep up the great work your doing 🙂
Thanks!😄
the A05s looked promising over the last year A04s , it is a huge upgrade!!! , also keep your beard , it looked awesome 👌
Not wrong. It's a massive upgrade. The Exynos in the A04s shouldn't have even been anywhere near a phone.
Put the refresh rate down to 60HZ, and choose the 6GB version.
Your videos are great im not even planning on buying any midrangers since i actually use s20 fe but it's interesting to see how other phones are doing. I'm glad you finally made a vid again

used market exists
@@davinkeee nah used 😂 market no OS updates
@@hipetwa and?
If you buy a crappy phone new, what do software updates matter if it runs like crap?
@@davinkeee older phones run slower due to them receiving major update manufacturers slow older phones 😂😂
@@hipetwa
1. I don't think you can find any evidence backing that up, lmk if you can
2. Older flagships still run faster than new midranges.
thank you for the honest review kevin
