Samsung phone without AMOLED literally doesn’t Samsung phone, Chinese alternatives just offer more in such as restricted budgets.

You can’t compare this with A51. It’s only $100.

Smartphone companies are confusing the consumers with their model’s naming. I don’t know if Samsung is going forward or backward. Great review btw ????.

Even the iPhone X is now cheap. Not cheaper than this, though.

A product can be ‘cheap’, a price can be ‘low’. A price can not be ‘cheap’. 🙂

the A11 seems a much better option than this if the A51 or A71 is out of budget’s reach…

I don’t care about gaming on my phone, don’t care about the camera, don’t even need a front facing camera. I just want it to be fast enough to browse the web, watch youtube on a decent enough display, be fast enough while switching through apps, have a decent battery life and is mainly used for texting/watching videos.

I wish you could build your own phone, like a computer. I’d 100% never have a front facing camera for selfies. The most useless thing on a phone.

Seems like a bad idea to buy a phone with a terrible screen, camera, and battery with only enough storage for the OS………….
