Any problems with the volume while making calls outside or in a crowded place? Have been using a Galaxy s3 since c.2012 and will be trading it in for a free A32 5G from T-Mobile and a 2 year agreement. On the s3, web browsing is slow, some apps no longer work and can't install new ones and trying to find an OEM that works is a gamble, but is the free trade in worth it or should I have paid for an s9 or s10?

[@danjones3402]

Had this phone and I had to return it. Might be the 5g antenna they used in it because I had it up against my LG k92 5g and the LG was much faster and LG doesn't even make phones anymore. System was lagging and more than a few times it wouldn't even auto rotate. I ended up getting A Motorola Stlyus 5g and the internet connection on that is much quicker and the phone feels more sturdy in the hands when compared to the A32 5g. Maybe the 4g version is better because it feels like Samsung just made it cheap just to call it a 5g phone. I had a s9 for 3 years so this is no hate on them just stating my experience with the phone. It feels dated like it should of came out a few years ago as a budget phone. Maybe it has been better for you guys?

[@NitinRPatil-mo1ht]

Hey will you be covering the Redmi Note 10 Pro? You may have heard that it has a 120 Hz AMOLED 1080p display, the SD 732G and a Samsung HM2 108MP sensor on its primary camera. I completely understand if you can't cover it due to its unavailability in North America. That phone is literally 300 dollars. It does not have 5G, but it does not matter to me. So the Redmi Note 10 Pro completely beats the devil out of this thing.Nice editing and great video👍👍

Hi I'm looking to upgrade soon and this looks like a great cheap ish phone, would you know off the top of your head if this phone is better overall than the Samsung s10e? I'm pretty bad with specs with phones :(

[@MarkSpurrell]

I would definitely go with the S10e over this. The S10e doesn't have a high refresh rate display or a huge battery, but the quality of the display is better and it should be much faster than the A32 5G. It will most likely be more expensive unlocked though.

[@matchmasters...solochallenge]

@@MarkSpurrell ah sorry bud, I didn't explain myself well enough. I have the s10e so just wondered if it's a massive downgrade from it, I know you've said pick the s10e over a32 but is it a massively noticable difference?

[@MarkSpurrell]

Ah okay. I wouldn't call it a massive downgrade. You'll definitely get much better battery life but the display, internal specs, and cameras are definitely a downgrade.

[@matchmasters...solochallenge]

@@MarkSpurrell you my friend are a gem, thank you for such a responsive service. It was either that or get a s21 at stupid price on contract, so think I might go for the a32 and keep my monthly sim. You've been a great help, I wish you all the success in the world

[@GMarieBehindTheMask]

What about Dolby Atmos?

[@obidean3964]

Weirdly in my place, this phone has 60Hz screen for some reasons lol. It's pretty good phone to get 5G for dirt cheap price. Fun fact: MediaTek is the biggest smartphone chip vendor in 2020, they've actually made tremendous improvement in their chip lineup in performance and efficiency as of late. Their chips actually give real run for the money against mid-range chips from more established Qualcomm, hence why it's so popular at least in Asian market. Hopefully you can review A52 5G as well which I feel that phone is way better all-rounder than this albeit for higher price but seems worth it for what it offers. Great video Mark 👌🏼
