Samsung Galaxy A25 Review!

Here is my review of the all-new Galaxy A25 smartphone from Samsung. The Samsung Galaxy A25 features the Exynos 1280 chipset, which is a 5G chip and a great-performing chip for the price.

Will you go with the Galaxy A25 for $260 or Nah?

[@zzymikelxgaming]

Nah prefer to get the iPhone 11 pls compare with the iPhone 11

[@berkhimself]

A34 is better option for similar price in Europe

[@brian_jake]

​@zzymikelxgaming thats an old phone

[@zzymikelxgaming]

@@brian_jake you can compare an old flagship with the latest budget phone

[@IgorGoularthOfficial]

Nah, absolutely, nah. Price is almost reaching flagship zone. Other brands has complete box with more accessories for less money and most of times, faster charging capacities, better/more complete set of cameras and so on.

[@ashadephilip2116]

Some of you complains too much. I bought a used Galaxy J7 as at 2018 and I can tell you that I am still holding on it. Does everything I need perfectly. Lower chiset but NO overheating not even for once for 6 solid years. Just because of some few differences I will go spend millions on flagship never

[@pixelgaming7261]

4:16 The Galaxy M34 from last year also had this processor. 5:50 The A24 had the 4 year OS/5 year security promise so this does too.

[@RealThee_X2]

Thank God I got the A34 last year for 236k

[@SON-AYAKU]

Same here. The speakers are so fricking good.

[@besnacivava7812]

​@@SON-AYAKUThe whole phone is great tbh

[@SON-AYAKU]

@besnacivava7812 Indeed. With the exception of the microphone. It is quite bad at noise cancellation and even picking up my voice.

[@mohammadtavakoli4501]

A25 or A34?🤔

[@SON-AYAKU]

@mohammadtavakoli4501 It really is a tough choice. One major thing is the headphone jack. Only the A25 has it and not the A34. That's not to say you can't get an attachment tho. However, personally, I haven't had any heating problems whatsoever. The reason why the A25 is a good choice is because prior to its predecessor, it has an upgraded chip, 120Hz as opposed to the A24's 90Hz and supports 5G as opposed to just 4G. The only thing that worries me is the exynos chipset. I am scared of how badly it may overheat for long time medium and short time heavy gaming. I am looking to potentially buy the A25 for my Sis mainly cause of the headphone jack. Personally, I hate a set of things they did to the notification panel and how the overall look feels. I have the A34 and have still deliberately not upgraded to Android 14 One UI 6, due to these few reasons. Android 13 felt complete alongside ONE UI 5.1 There are some key features I really love that were added. However, at the cost of that slightly unpleasant panel, I would not consider the A25 as it comes with a pre-installed A14 with ONE UI 6. Either way, you do you man. I just bought my phone in Oct. Am still waiting on the A05s, A15 5G and the A25 5G.

[@aluwanimoyo4093]

I like Samsung's very simple chip upgrade strategy - the bigger phone "hands down" its processor to the lesser phone. So last year G99 was on the a24, this year A15 inherits it. The A25 inherits the M34 processor from last year: clever, simple - and you get meaningful upgrades in the specific segment year after year unlike Redmi who just gives a tiny processor upgrade like from SD680 to SD685, or sometimes just switches chip manufacturer to fool you but its basically it's the same power chip or slightly weaker.

[@Orema_]

It's the consistency for me ❤😊

[@ntokozomlambo6909]

Samsung really coocked with this one🔥🔥🔥

[@johansundin7051]

Very good review. Clear and contain a lot of information

[@leonvion95]

A lower midrange at this price is a NO NO for me. I would rather get a second hand use of the old flagship or as well opt for a better alternative at the same price range.

[@orabuezeuchevictor229]

Me too

[@TechWithIpin]

Great vid. Welldone 👍

[@ernalynmaexchange2116]

A25 still have a 3.5mm jack which is essential for online meetings. If A34 have it for sure it will be a hit because they can still use their earphones.

[@astroguy5299]

Love that intro

[@oscarmini]

Thank you 🙏

[@melodymelanie8821]

As at this morning,[Wednesday,24th of January, 9am] the A25 5G, 256G is almost N399,700. Av been with the Samsung Family forever but the price is Extremely high.Your review was all I needed to hear about this phone but the price has left me sad as i was targeting it for my Birthday. Unfortunately i would have to walk away. 😢 Thumbs up to your review. Would continue saving up for this classic phone.🎉❤

[@thestingyham1188]

It will drop price quickly. Always does.

[@ebereezike3448]

Unfortunately, it's now about 470 sth. Looks like it's not coming down anytime soon

[@auguststanislaus8306]

bought mine today,,, June it's 350,000

[@euricico7703]

Sir Goodmorning from PH can I ask where did you get that cool wallpaper hehe

[@user-jy3io4iz2p]

In terms of hardware specs there are interesting alternatives (A34 6/128Gb does €259 as the A25) yet update policy make the A25 an interesting phone with good enough performance. When the A34 comes into the picture so does imho the Motorola G84 (€229) as Edge 40 (€319).

[@artinseyedpour8065]

Hello, I saw a difference while watching 2 different videos about this phone, and that was that in one phone, In the camera and more section, it had hyperlapse, super slow motion and video pro modes, but the other phone did not have these 3 features and only had hyperlapse instead of these. What do you think is the reason for this difference? Do you think the amount of RAM memory can affect this or other reasons such as the amount of main memory or region can affect this issue? Please anwser me I want to buy one

[@decoder258]

The speakers are actually nice

[@o.t.briggs]

Nice review

Thank you! Cheers!

My current phone the realme x50 5g its screen has fallen of soo I am looking towards this phone to buy next.

[@GO-gh2cp]

samsung is giving up to the tripple card slot. why ? the only one with 3 slots is the A24...

[@emmanuelolugbami9313]

At this point in the Nigeria market, infact globally, Samsung is joking with their Midrange segment because its complete trash for that price. First of all that notch in 2024 is terrible for that price.

[@acadventure2867]

Thanks on phone specs..review

Thanks for the review bro, i buy this one for my son for games over all all great ❤❤❤❤

That's good

[@Lili-qq2xb]

Galaxy A25 or HONOR X8B?

[@expectcreate]

@oscarmini i thought it was 4 years of software update and 5 years of security update. even google confirms it

[@godspower1849]

❤❤

[@carlitozik]

I've been using the phone for a week, everything is fine, except for one thing - it gets very hot. I don't play games. It heats up from the camera, Instagram, KZbin, Google Chrome, etc. Moreover, not only the back side, but also the screen heats up quite a bit, although I don’t use the maximum brightness. I already bought the original cover, but it is still very warm even through the cover. Is this a problem with the exynos1280 processor? Nobody really talks about this anywhere. Am I the only one having this problem?

[@niravchand8518]

I am currently using Samsung a12 which one should I upgrade next to a15 or a25

[@MasterMCGS]

whichever man, both are good

[@Themusiccomposer1639]

Theres an a25?

[@Benjamins132]

Does this and the A15 come with NFC?

[@soulojay6843]

yes yes

[@vaggelis-vv1uh]

I want to replace my old phone and i dont like flagships Should i get this or a34?? In my country they are at the same price

[@win.thelife]

i have the same doubt😅

[@digitaldruglord1815]

thanks, helped my mom make a purchase. Subbed

[@oscarmini]

Glad I could help.

[@angeloangelino4660]

Do you think that is better the a05s for the price?

[@ItsMadRiv]

It cost way more than the a05s. It's also better. The a34 5g is the way to go

[@scense001]

Aqui no Brasil até o momento somente o A05 por R$719 A 799 REAIS BRASILEIROS pretendo trocar meu Galaxy A10 usado na Black Friday no mínimo pelo A15

Yoohguys😂😂😂😂 I like this

[@PJ-gm1hb]

Does anyone know if the a25 refresh rate is auto 60/120hz or fixed 120hz?

[@thomasireland1770]

dont have the phone but you should be able to lock it at 60htz if you require

[@chukwudiclinton9130]

Samsung and making midrange devices difficult to purchase especially when they're other brands that offer almost a better spec with the same price or less

[@favourhussein3802]

It's cheap but Naira is devaluing that's why

[@chukwudiclinton9130]

@@favourhussein3802 yeah I understand, but other brands like Xiaomi offer more value for money in my opinion

[@rudfil]

Is the Motorola G53 better than this A25 in the price range or something else.

[@pixelgaming7261]

A25 is far better than G53.

[@Son_of_Yahweh]

Down grade from a24 with dual sim and micro sd card to either a dual sim or a sim and an sd card😢

[@dejantr98]

You definitely should avoid exynos 1280. I got 1380 and Samsung can't fix UI lags. It's rare but always present. I guess 1280 us even worse

[@blazefire9706]

not even that its the same chipset from the A53 i got over 24k worth of phones in my phone arena room not including 2 24plus and 2 24U i pre ordered.......i tested the A53 and i lasted 1 day on that phone before hanging its cape up in the room its no way..... thats one of the worse phone chips ive used or tested and it was beyond bad

[@m.t_richy]

Forget the a15 compare it to an a34 please. Even better do comparison between a34, a25, and a15.😮

[@MasterMCGS]

its worse than a34

[@favourhussein3802]

These phones are cheap but Naira is devaluing that's why

[@andrewdove342]

no gorilla glass apparently

[@MOA007]

The Naira is a very very very weak and almost useless legal tender 😂😂.. Nice review Boss.

[@ntokozomlambo6909]

[@itskingpius]

The cliche of liking a phone because it looks like the flagship counterpart which in my opinion doesnt even look that great and leaves so much more to be desired is very annoying snd boring....

[@mohammadtavakoli4501]

A25 or A34?🤔

[@gonow6288]

I went A34 for having waterproof features, under display fingerprint, and better cpu despite having a lower price than A25.
