    I am surprised the performance was this bad at release. It almost sounds there could something else going on.

      Haven’t they had major issues with the OneUI 7 rollout on other devices? I don’t think this has anything to do with OneUI being “bloated” as others are saying, like you my family has many mid-range Samsungs and none of them ever had performance issues. Last year’s weren’t anywhere near this bad, either. To me it sounds like something is seriously fucked up with OneUI 7, which these new phones are launching with, and that is the major reason why it the weaker chipsets are suddenly struggling.

        Very well could be. No one in my has a phone with OneUI 7, and I am only happy out phones will be getting it once it’s been beta tested by someone else. 😀

      Some samsung phones are this bad and sometimes even worse (A53, M55).

      I’m guessing its a samsung optimization issue alongside using cheap parts. Chinese OEMs in the same price range use faster chips and Vapor cooling chamber for improved performance.

    i dint get thier low budget phones for this reason, mostly because they have geared the same models towards mostly international customers, but have a downgraded version for the us, because they want samsung customers to buy thier flagship phones.

    All this many years update thing is just marketing bullshit.

    Not only you will receive those updates 12-18 months later than the newer phones, you also will not receive most if not all the new features which will remain locked to the newer hardware. Since most new Android features are the one tied to the newer smartphones you will effectively receive nothing or almost nothing, and a year later on top of that.

    budget phones have a bad reputation.

    They are slow as hell… A quick reference is antutu benchmark… this brand new A36 has a score of ~550k, my 2021 old phone has ~800k and it is still snapy and all, but no more update, so it’s a choice…
