Customer Review
Reviewed in Canada on June 16, 2024
Likes:
- The frame of the phone is solid and feels very durable when holding
- The screen is large with vibrant colours and the viewing angles are quite good from all sides
- Has dual SIM slots which would make it ideal for travelers abroad
- The operating system is free of any bloatware or malware and it has a Samsung theme on it
- The main camera and selfie camera takes decent photos indoors
- A silicon case was provided inside the box as well as a set of USB-C headphones however I did not try the headphones
- The stylus pen when ejected automatically opens up a note taking app and the scribble feature works well despite being a bit slow
Dislikes:
- Phone lacks Always-On-Display
- Onboard speaker is terrible, it's volume is low and sounds tinny when watching videos
- Some apps close on it's own without warning, I tried using Malwarebytes to scan for malware and the app closed a few times (not crashing) before I managed to perform a full scan
- Overall performance lags, probably due to the Helios P22 chipset
- Advertised specs do no match the hardware inside, I downloaded Device Info HW and this is what I found:
Processor: MediaTek Helios P22
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 128GB
Screen: 1560 x 720 @ 60Hz
Rear Camera: 12.6MP f2.8
Wide Angle Camera: N/A
Front Camera: 24MP f2.8
Battery: 6800maH (I can't confirm if this is accurate, however battery life is quite good and the phone does last a day and a half between a full charge)
To summarize, this phone is an overpriced S24 Ultra clone. If the seller was honest about it's specs it should be selling below the $150 price point but at time of review this is not a good value unless you specifically need a large 6.8" screen or a global travel phone since it does have dual SIM slots. I would have given it a higher rating if the product description wasn't misleading.
