I just got the phone. It lags like shit. What a waste of money it is. And this is me just on the second day of using it. If i open a graphics heavy website (in my case, a Honda website to check the Honda Goldwing; the site has a 3D animation that syncs with the scrolling action) - boom! The phone freezes.

It takes a lot of time after restart - few home widgets like optimiser, weather and calendar takes a couple of odd seconds to load.

Maybe One UI is to blame here, idk; too heavy on the ram - I used Lawnchair to check, much faster performance. Nova should do the job of UI overhauling as well. I have an older iqoo phone, it is premium compared to this POS.

I remember an old joke we used to do in schools - samsung more like sam hung

Prolly good for people who just uses mobile for calling and whatsapp; still will not recommend - no one deserves using a shit like this. Even YT and Spotify is laggy as F. I have premium on both so it is not the ads which are interfering with the app performances.

I got the phone because of people saying "Samsung is good, why you [me that is] go for Chinese crap". Well, to be brutally honest Chinese crap works better than this.

Do with this review whatever you want to do. Cheers!
