Samsung Galaxy A15 5G Review: A New Affordable Samsung Smartphone

What are your thoughts on the A15 5G? Thanks for watching!

Are you going to review the a35 and a55

overall for me it's a good phone, speaker sound is a little bit low...

[@denniebone388]

Last week I bought 2 of these Samsung Galaxy A15 5G from Best Buy for a great price and gave one of them to my wife to replace her old phone that had a swollen battery that’s about to explode. The second one I use to put music on so when I’m riding my electric moped I can listen to music with instead of my iPhone 11 Pro Max on my handlebars. The look, the build quality and the performance of the Samsung Galaxy A15 5G is amazing and now I switched to this one to use as my daily driver. My iPhone is in the top drawer for now until further notice and I’ll have to get me a much cheaper phone to use while I’m riding.

[@JPMIIIIIIIII]

Camera do iphone 11 é muito melhor, mas não sei dizer outra coisa, que iphone 11 seja muito melhor.

[@commandertoothpick8284]

I ordered one for $152 and its crazy to think cheap phones are THIS good already. I'm going to use it for banking and security apps mostly so the 4-5 years of software support is a big plus to me.

[@Voidchamber_gd]

It was 220$ for me

[@isolde1802]

I ordered mine off of HSN for $100. It comes with tracfone service, but after I use it up I am going to by a sim card for another carrier. Honestly, I had the Samsung A13 for 2 years and loved it. I just needed a little more storage and this phone fits my needs perfectly.

[@O-HMAN]

I bought a15 5g at 20k INR in navy blue This is good and giving good battery life and not heat when gaming but warm😢 It's is samsung best seeling a series phone in 2023

[@mattakudesu]

I wanted to get the s54 but the cricket store was out of stock so I ended up getting an a15 and I have to say I've been quite pleased with it. It's not the fastest thing on the planet but it is a MASSIVE upgrade from the galaxy a10e I've been using for the past 5 years. I'm not a fan of switching phones every year or two and this phone does everything I want much better than my old phone so I don't feel too bad about missing out on the more souped up s54.

[@DWtechfan]

Damn! The S24 series just got released but you playing the long game waiting for the S54.

You kidding me right?

[@DWtechfan]

I'm surprised most people don't know these tips to speed up your android in 2024, but here are some ways to improve the A15 5g: -Turn off animations via developer options, if you don't know how to Google it and follow the steps. -Put any unused apps or rarely used apps into deep sleep mode and limit background processes in the settings menu. -A basic thing most people overlook is regularly deleting cache on all apps and individual apps. I'm not talking about just the cleaning tool to release memory in the settings menu. You should tap on each app after using it and hit the app info interactive i with the circle around it then go to storage and cache then clear cache. This is something you've always needed to do in every android phone no matter the processor or RAM to ensure the apps run well. This is one of those common sense things that any android user should know and do but most people don't do this and it helps your device. -If you've done the other things on this list the only other thing you can do to aid better performance is to wipe your cache partition. Again, if you don't know how to Google it or look it up on a KZbin video. -One final tip is to regularly restart your phone. This releases used memory and will help the phone to run at its peak performance. You don't have to restart your phone every day but anywhere from once every couple days to a couple times per week is ideal. I hope this helps anyone that experiences slow performance and you'd be surprised how doing these things helps even the most laggy phones.

[@damightyshabba439]

Just ordered one of these - will report back on experience - BUT - based on reports.... for the price... pretty sure I'll be very happy.

[@jayblue5310]

How is the speaker volume i have the A -13 its horrible is this one louder

[@NVOLEON]

The ram management example was very helpful, thank you.

[@Towabear]

2:20 glad Samsung is still keeping the headphone jack on the A Series phone! But it’s completely gone from the S Series phones

[@oseanzx]

Some of the reasons why Samsung has removed this feature is because the waterproof feature makes it possible to remove the headphone jack, even from the Galaxy S series to the Galaxy A35 5G which has water resistance, there is no longer a headphone jack.

[@019bc3]

@@oseanzx I actually believe headphone jack was removed to promote bluetooth headphones (initially by Apple and then by other smartphone producers). Sony Xperia still has a headphone jack and at the same time water resistant.

[@oseanzx]

@@019bc3 Your statement is also true, However, most smartphones will eliminate it only for a few features that might be considered modern, considering that the 3.5mm headphone jack often has problems but that's okay.

Very informative review. We are considering switching from iphones to the Samsung A15 model (Or carrier offers it). Thanks!

[@larry1754]

Thank you so much for this review of the Samsung A15 5G! My gf and I both use very outdated phones, I still use my ORIGINAL LG Aristo, how old is that, lol!!!! But I'm finding some apps will not work with my non-upgradeable operating system (Android 7)! My gf also lives part of the year in Ecuador, part of the year here, and she needs an updated phone too! So I just ordered two of these on Amazon, 256gb/8gb ram, for $179 each, one for me and one for her. Big benefit for her is it's already unlocked, and dual sim slots means she can have her EC sim in one slot, her US sim in the other slot, either one ready to use whether she's here or there! Am I right about that? Thanks again for, in my mind, confirming my choice of this phone!

Can you buy and use the international model in America? UPDATE: I bought the international version of the phone and it is working with Verizon.

This looks great in every area except performance. Crazy the mediatek dimensity 700 chip in the a13 and a14 5g was a more solid performing chipset. I can't help but think a more reliable snapdragon chip would've been much better.

[@kirdot2011]

The 90 Hz refresh rate can be turned on or off during the set up process but the phone warns you that if you do set it up it will drain the battery faster

[@JohnDunkley]

I do find it sluggish but my biggest beef with it is it doesn't play android auto on all the vehicles I drive. It just crashes, and the screen on the vehicle is frozen or just black. If you have any advice on why it would be appreciated 👍

[@stevena2230]

I went to a phone store today to check out the 2024 Samsung Galaxy A15 5G. I opened up six apps on the phone numerous times. I went back to the home screen and then to the close apps button. Each time I tapped on an open app it opened right up, it did not close. I did this numerous times. The phone that you are using must have a software issue.

I just ordered 2 of these phones. Thanks for the review...I had an old lg aristo 3 and it died. I don't even think they make phones anymore. Well I think this should be a big upgrade compared to that. I also got one for my son who is turning 18 for his bday. He has an older galaxy so I'm hoping these phone last awhile. Looks good from your review. 😊

[@jaydee0187]

Ive had mine for about a week and its a great phone for the price.Its not the best phone in the world,but it might be the best phone for $200 or less.I highly recommend it if your looking for a great phone at a great price

[@startedtech]

The other night the touch on my Pixel 6 started dying (it was long cracked, not sure what happened) so I drove to the store 30 mins before they closed and grabbed the 128GB/6GB/NFC/4G variant for $160 so I could still have a phone. I'm shocked how good budget phones are now. Sure, its marginally slower and has the occasional stutter, but really it does almost everything just as well. My sole complaint is lack of stereo audio out the earpiece speaker. It seems like artificial market segmentation, because even a little bit from the earpiece speaker would be better than nothing.

[@Scorpio_1974]

It makes no sense they give you the charge cable but not the actual charger to hook it up with? What? Did I miss something? really?

[@LogicalCuriousity]

Just got this phone for $40 with Boost Mobile upgrade, pretty sweet deal. I use the Iphone 12 mini for my daily driver but thought this would be a great extra entertainment device/second phone.

[@taymax708]

Anyone been using this have reliable performance? Im opting for a budget phone this year. I only will use spotify, android auto, snapseed and alarm/calling texting. Is the alarm loud enough with the mono speaker? I will turn of animations and i dont give a blank about cameras, i ise a sony mirrorless.

[@chrishalle1982]

Wirh the 50 Megapixel, there is something wrong. For 50 Megapixel the resolution of the zoom isway to low in comparesent with the12 Megapixel. The writings should be 4 times sharper than the writing in the 12 megapixel shot. It looks sharper yes but there is no more detail. In real 50 Megapixel Shots you should see more details. It rather looks like post processed sharpening of the 12 Megapixel image.

I Love Samsung A15 5G

[@lovemadeinjapan]

This is 130€, where a iPhone 15 plus is 1119€, almost 10x as much. You can barely tell the difference, seriously. Both premium feel, with some shitty software and screen candy overdose messing up, except that Samsung/Google allows a bit more tweaking and sideloading and comes with a SD slot for near free storage updates and a mini-jack. I bet they roughly cost the same to manufacture, Apple can use slightly better quality components thanks to their production volume, but it is splitting hairs, so that means Apple gobbles up 800€ pure profit if you compare excl. VAT prices.
