Samsung Galaxy A23 5G | Unboxing & Full Tour

[@farorewind3379]

I bought this a23 for my younger sister, who excels in shattering smartphones. I was looking for a very budget-ish option and came across the A23, and honestly, it exceeded the expectations I had about this phone. No saying it's amazing, but extremely solid for the price tag.

[@DanMorab-pl1vv]

Had it for three months, it's a really good device, worth every penny, really enjoying

[@worigami]

I hope this is better than recent budget A-series Samsung phones. Our experience is that they don't impress in any category, the last one we has was unresponsive and needed to be frequently restarted. We now look at new budget to mid-range phones from other brands or second-hand S-series phones. It's a better investment than living with the A-series.

[@TechSpurt]

They certainly can be a mixed bag, I've found the Snapdragon ones tend to be better than the Exynos A-series phones. Although this one definitely needed more memory...

[@michaelball93]

The A52s is a brilliant phone (although I understand that this is pretty much where the A series peaked) and I managed to find it new for £250. The S series is handicapped in this country by being powered by Exynos instead of Qualcomm and being overpriced compared with the rivals on offer.

[@worigami]

@@michaelball93 I've owned a number of S-series phones and even with the CPU constraints they perform well enough for my needs. I did decide though to make the jump to Google and now have a Pixel 6 Pro and I'm not missing Samsung. My partner has had a couple of A-series phones and had nothing but issues with the performance and stability. We're looking to get her a Pixel 6a, currently around £320 which seems to offer much more than similarly priced Samsung phones.

Just bought a new Samsung Galaxy A23 5G in late September for $329. It was a huge upgrade from my old phone. My favorite feature is tied between the long battery life and the 120hz display.

[@mohamedmostafamohamedmahbo5706]

so you must update to a bigger storage capacity

[@shanepatrick641]

Sadly it's to make you spend more money when you run out of storage.. either you pay for cloud storage, or buy a whole new phone from them. Similar to why they removed the headphone jack, costs them less and potentially makes you buy their expensive ear buds. I wish the SD card slot and headphone jack make a return but.....

How is it environmentally friendly?My father bought a similar model, the A13.There was also no power adapter in the box.And since the cable it comes with on both sides is type C,(Because all our power adapters are from the old ones with a normal computer USB port.) he had to buy another adapter separately.Which came in a separate box that was half the size of the phone box.And how is that more environmentally friendly?He had to get this phone after his old one broke after years of use.We don't change phones every few months.

One good point is atleast they used ips lcd.Their amoled screens are like eye candy balloons which simply pop with minor falls and screens are forever dead.

[@fabiandimaspratama]

Yep. Can confirm. 3 yrs of usage and my AMOLED screen has purple spot. The replacement repair is pretty expensive, the screen is like 1/4 the price of the phone itself.

i am using galaxy a33 5g and pixel 6a....had to use a33 5g from my previous note 9 due to budget issues and its not a bad phone ,if you are not a gamer or use for normal task like editing photos,videos, social media and all..its perfect..just the camera department is kind of cheap..samsung midrange phones are good,but they need need to match the price with chinese manufacturers, but yeah android updates, quality of the phone also matters...

[@myonlydemandisbacktowork8759]

Yes Samsung’s update commitment is only second to Apple/Google

[@bluepig33]

I would love this phone but it only has 4GB of RAM. That would be fine if it were running a 32-bit OS but it's using full-fat 64-bit Android 12 AND it has Samsung's bloated OneUI on top of that. Save up and get the A53 5G if you actually want to keep more than 2 apps in RAM at one time. I don't know what Samsung was thinking when they decided that the American version should only get that paltry amount of RAM.

[@vaultboy1419]

SD 695 and 4gb RAM, well that sucks. Samsungs OneUI will drain that RAM by just booting up, the phone will lag to oblivion.

[@RamdomWinner]

Wonderful Video as always mate. One recommendation though. Perhaps consider adding a list of closest competitors in your videos or at least in written details. It would help us viewers immensely if we can quickly have probable list of alternatives. I know you mentioned you already have a dedicated video already but just a slide with alternatives would be awesome. Cheers.. 😊😊😊😊

Pretty average for the price, considering the competitors have better chipset, screen, speakers, etc. Samsung's advantage comes from its software - less buggy, less bloatwares, and more updates.

[@paulharrison8379]

The reason that I would not pay £289 for the A23 5G is that I recently bought a higher spec new A53 5G from Amazon on Prime day for £249 and could have bought a new A52 5G for £200 on the previous Prime day. Samsung have large stocks of unsold A series phones which will feature highly in Black Friday sales. The basic problem with the A series is that you can buy Chinese phones with faster processors for the same prices as A series phones. Personally, I will not be buying any more Chinese phones due to a complete lack of security updates.

[@misfit2022]

This has gone to the top of my research list especially as it has a 3.5 mm headphone Jack which is a must for me but I will wait for my Windows phone 3G to disappear first. Does this mean you have to buy a power adapter separately?

I found it to be a disappointment compared to my old Galaxy Lite. I think my Redmi Note 12 or Motorola Moto G Stylus are a lot better bargains. Mine received an update in April 2023 and started having battery issues. It would get 118-130°F whilst charging and now it won't charge at all. The battery was recently changed and it still won't charge. I'm just glad it was a freeby when I changed carriers. I'm also not a fan of having to log into their website to get things that should have come on the phone already. The same for my Redmi Note 12.
