I really love how this midrange market is evolving. I do not see myself buying a flagship when I have to upgrade. Waiting for the pixel 4a to be released but this a71 is a top contender for me.

[@jeffreyholicky4303]

People are literally making "mortgage" type payments for a bloody phone. I am reading about the Samsung Note 20 Ultra Snapdragon's battery - albeit better than the Exynos (Samsung CPU) but still people are not pleased. Even Mr. Mobile found for the first time a Note that didn't last him the whole day. For a while now there has either been a flagship or pathetic 32GB old junk. I concur the midrange market is definitely compelling. It also allows you to flip phones sooner due to the lower cost and still having a good choice of phones. I still think a bigger battery, even with fast charging, does come in handy. I hate Samsung's forced bloatware (my last was the SIII) but this is an interesting option.

[@ramtb9998]

The A71 does have some water resistance, dropped mines in the bath and all that happened was the speaker got clogged but you just stick it in rice and its fine. The no IP rating does not mean it isnt resistant.

I have the A71 for 2 months now. Coming from an S8 believe it or not this was an upgrade in processor, ram, display size and battery life. It has all what I needed with a bit more. My main downsides are that I missed the best Amoled quality screen of samsung and a downgraded camera quality. Nevertheles with the built in camera app and gcam I could take some pleasing photos , yet once zoomed in a bit the quality shows to be lower than a flagship like an S8 which still takes very good quality photos and especially with gcam.

After looking around, I decided on the A71. I'm happy with it but it's a much bigger phone than I would like. I was going to pull the trigger on the A51, but the extra real estate is nice and the 4500 battery is terrific.

[@jasonbabcock2158]

Recently while in the showroom of one of the big 3 carriers I caught myself drouling over the S20 Ultra... Over the course of the next few days after completing my research to decide which new Samsung phone I was going to purchase this year I've decided that the A71 was just so much more of a value to me over the S20 Ultra and that just part of the money I'd be saving allowed me to purchase my new S6 Lite tablet with the S-PEN!! I have to admit a few years ago I did enjoy sporting the new S10 plus around town... and it probably was one of the most expensive mobile phones in the country, the value definitely wasn't evident.

I currently have the Samsung s8 and I have had it for two years now. I was considering getting the iPhone SE 2020 because I do have quite small hands and I can just about manage with the s8. I was going to maybe consider the A71 until I saw how big in comparison it is to the s8. I mean if I do end up getting a more midrange phone I know I will be able to tell the differences but I do believe that Samsung has upped their game when it comes to midrange phones recently.
