Probably the bloated software, and for some maybe the screen. Otherwise it has some good specs! Quite simular to the A52s, which is a much appreciated midranger!
Yeah, I read somewhere that the 6gb of ram is not capable of multitasking. So it is possible the bloat is taking a lot of the ram. My device has 8gb of ram, and 5 gb is in use, I don’t use my phone too much.
I used the A52s for ~2 years up to yesterday, i’ve had no problems with multitasking. Gotta say that i didn’t multitasked that much, but leaving a couple of apps open while running 2 others at the same time didn’t caused any problems, whatsoever. Still… I hate Samsungs bloatware, it is the main reason i switched to another brand with stock Android. Much better!
I have the previous version. Going on 3-4 ears now.
It is good.
Great even, assuming your camera requirements aren’t super high.
The programmable buttons are so excellent and I wish that was a more prevalent feature.
No popup camera, but Samsung Xcover6 Pro might be your jam: https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_xcover6_pro-11600.php
6gb ram, 120hz display, Android 13, Snapdragon 778, SD slot, removeable battery, 3.5mm jack, USB 3.2 w/dex support.
Holy moly guacamole, there are so many features I wanted! I wonder what the biggest downside is aside from mid camera quality.

I’m getting a Samsung for dev work because it’s cheap, but I wouldn’t have gotten it if I wasn’t sure I could root it to remove the bloat.
LCD display, not OLED for some insane reason.
TIL such a phone existed.
This is my current work phone. Absolutely love it, also has an LED notification light. Seriously forgot how much I missed that.
Damn. Wish I saw this a week ago before I bought my first new phone in 5 years…
You might still be within the return period!
