Samsung Galaxy A05s Review | One Month Later!

[@the.macverse]

This is review is something else, the quality, the heart that goes into making this video, I love it, keep up the nice work!

[@SergioMolan]

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.

This is actually the best review i have seen,i so much love this

BULLSHIT REVIEW!!!

[@Anonymous-ek9bx]

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 ❤️

[@KevinRiazi]

Thank you 😁

[@HassanKhan-p2t]

Could you please tell, does it standard support h.265 10 bit video codec

[@IansDrumsandBass]

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.

the A05s looked promising over the last year A04s , it is a huge upgrade!!! , also keep your beard , it looked awesome 👌

[@nathansstuff1547]

Not wrong. It's a massive upgrade. The Exynos in the A04s shouldn't have even been anywhere near a phone.

[@haivuong7956]

Put the refresh rate down to 60HZ, and choose the 6GB version.

Welcome back! And as always, a very well done review.

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

[@KevinRiazi]

Thank you! 👊

[@SilverMoonCrystalPower]

Really impressed with this detailed review. So easy to understand and got all information I need.👌

[@jolenewood804]

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!

[@jumont23]

Great video. You covered everything the common person needs to know. Keep up the great work your doing 🙂

[@KevinRiazi]

Thanks!😄

[@blackterminal]

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.

​@@ExileRicochet13 I can bet you the s10 is better than all mid ranges and holds up with current flag shipd..ships... best phone in the last decade

[@hanve]

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!❤❤❤

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 👍

[@krollpeter]

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]

Did you buy it and are you happy?

[@krollpeter]

@@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.

[@legelf]

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

[@krollpeter]

@@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.

The phone is not long lasting, clearly. U could've gotten a15 instead.

[@Universoftech]

There is an M15 now The same specs as A15 but has 6000mlA battery, and someone on KZbin 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

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.

[@pkpnyt4711]

Correction on your dark mode comment. In this phone it doesn't help with battery life as it uses a PLS LCD. This type of screen can't turn off its pixels like an OLED can. Only an OLED really benefits from a dark screen as it literally turns off pixels to show true black.

[@blackhorseteck8381]

Nice device for a teenager as a 1st smartphone, I have already checked out around 20 different entry level phones and I think I got the one.

Wait until this guy gets a hold of Chinese budget phones. For the majority of the people outside of the NorthWest, emmc storage is actually an uncommon feature on budget devices. Most nowadays have UFS 2.1 up to 3.1 in some cases. and AMOLED panels with high refresh rates are becoming more and more common. You'd be surprised to see just how good most budget smarphones are in comparison to Samsung's own line-up. Go take a look at the Techno 20 pro or the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13, for example.
