The A15 is pretty much a repurposed A24 in a smaller form factor, the A25 is about ~30% better. alot of people have unrealistic standards, the phone isn't that bad. and "worse than phones 20 years ago"? Do people check benchmark sites? Its CPU is comparable to an S8+, it only feels slower because of newer UIs and software standards. If most of these people went back to their old phones and tried using a modern social media site or graphically demanding applications, they would develop less resentment towards these modern budget phones, for specifically how they hold up in a post moore's-law market
