Review on Renewed Samsung Galaxy A50 Verizon Smartphone in Black with 64GB Storage by Agata Schultz ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The right product for me, the price suited me.

The phone turned out pretty bad. The main advantage over competitors is the display. But there are also compromise points. For me, the only critical moments are unlocking and the speed of work, which is already on the verge of comfort. If compared with the direct competitor of redmi note 8 pro, then on the side of redmi there will be a faster processor, more RAM, increased autonomy, by about 20%, unlocking speed, interface, a little (in my opinion) high-quality camera, case material, no PWM (especially noticeable when working for a long time at the display). So if you need a good, juicy bright display for an inexpensive price - only the A50 is no option. If normal ips is enough for you, or vice versa, you are not satisfied with too bright colors, PWM or you want a faster device for comparable money - the Chinese are your option. In general, the phone turned out to be very worthy for its money. Ideal? Of course not, and in principle there are none, because. everyone's requirements are different. But at the same time, I didn’t hit my face anywhere (except for unlocking).

Pros
  • - Definitely amoled screen. It is bright, juicy, detailed + the AOD function was not clamped. - Price. Obviously, the A series was created specifically to compete with the Chinese, and compared to previous phones of the middle and cheap segment from Samsung, when very cheap hardware was offered for a very expensive price - this is just a breakthrough, and even in relation to the Chinese, this model is competitive. - Ease of use (except for unlocking). The overall performance of the system leaves a pleasant impression. Autonomy at a normal level. Day in the average mode holds. - Photo opportunities at a good level. Although not ideal, compared to more expensive devices, especially in the dark, but for the money for a simple user it shoots very well. - there are all the features of a modern smartphone: NFC, fast charging, AOD, wide-angle camera, 2 sim \ micro sd, 3.5 mm, etc.
Cons
  • The fingerprint unlock is just awful. Firstly, the number of successful unlocks is approximately = 50/50. Secondly, also fingerprint reading is quite slow. As a result, we have a working unlock only in the face, and it also does not shine with speed, and does not work in the dark. In the end, you just have to enter the security key. Samsung has always had problems with finger unlocking, the same galaxy s8, s9 that I used were better than the a50, but compared to the same xiaomi it was unattainable in terms of speed and accuracy of unlocking. As a result, when buying, keep in mind those who are used to a quick unlock, everything is very sad here. - Not a very fast processor and only 4 GB of RAM, in principle, this is enough at the moment, there are no problems in games, but already on the verge, and in a couple of years this phone will clearly lack performance in some tasks. Compared to the same redmi note 8 pro that I use all the time, the A50 is noticeably slower when loading games, when launching other applications, tabs, etc. It seems to be not critical, but with the constant use of a faster device, the difference is felt decently. - The plastic case is scratched without a cover quickly, and unlike the Chinese, they do not put a cover in the kit. It is unpleasant. - Expensive display replacement. You can safely give more than 50% of the cost of the phone for this display, in case of a fall.
