Great phone but Australian charger?

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2020

Display is amazing. Grear camera for a midrange phone and the build quality is superb. However, I didn't like the fact that I got am Australian charger without the US connector so anyone who wants to purchse it here be sure to get a "US charger connector for Australian chargers" but otherwise, it's good so far. So many features that idk where to start digging!

Update: This phone's camera is really impressive in low light!! I took pictures in the dark and it looked like daytime its crazy how amazing it is! Amazing camera I tell you

As the description describes as a5G phone, but it doesn't have 5G. I bought it and returned it. I get back with the deduction about $150 without saying any thing. Pls read carefully before u buy from this store

Wow, great mid range phone 😄

Hey folks, been looking forward to buying the latest Galaxy A series phone as I don't like the "curved screen" on the Galaxy Note 10. So far this has been a great phone, fast, super bright screen, and very good speakerphone. The screen width is still "thinner" than a true Phablet, but it's the best deal with a large screen, performance, capacity, and features.

Make sure get the SM-A908B model which is the international version.

So far this phone has been great, I prefer to remove all the "Samsung" apps and just go with straight google apps.

- If you use a discount carrier that does not support 5G, you need to set the phone to "4G mode" as the low cost carriers may not have 5G sim cards yet.

- This phone has CPU throttling on by default for better battery life, but you can turn it off for faster web browsing.

- I love having the "always on" display, that shows the time and notifications when the screen is turned off. I wish all cellphones had this feature.

Also love the "double tap to wake feature" (vs pressing the power button to turn on the screen).

The only downsides are:
- (like most phones these days) I want better speakerphone. This one is about 4.5 out of 5 stars .. so still pretty good.
- It's a bit thicker/heavier (but not much).
- The notch and round corners of the screen does not interfere with using the phone. I still prefer the "wider square screen" of a true phablet.

International Warranty is BOGUS

Worked ok for a year and then died. The person who this was gifted to cannot get the international warranty accepted in his country! What is the point of “international”!!!

Samsung phone hits a triple

Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2020

Well, after a few days of tinkering I feel compelled to change my review. The problem with fingerprint recognition was fixed by using my middle finger. The thumb and index fingers just don't work.? The notification clock was switched to the right side through one of their apps, so now I'm able to see the temperature instead of dots. I really like their prior apps button, the way they're laid out for you to select one. I love the speed, the big RAM. It's a great phone that doesn't deserve the one star review I gave it before. Original review⤵️
God I hate Samsung. First Samsung product was a TV about six years ago. Hated it and sold it soon after buying it. This is my first Samsung phone, before they were LG mainly. The fingerprint recognition takes forever to take and frustratingly long to recognize. It just sucks! I removed all screen locks because of it. Their notification/status bar is just bleeping pathetic. They put the time stamp on the left side which disallows space to fit what should be there. So they use dots instead. Even my VPN symbol which on all other phones was on right side they stick on the left too. I'll be selling this and never buying another Samsung product.

I love this phone! I popped my Straight Talk SIM out of my Galaxy A50 and into the A90 with no problem. I was able to make phone calls right away. The only minor issue is it came with a European charger so I swapped it out with the one from my old Samsung Galaxy phone and it charged right up. The camera seems to have more modes on it that my A50. The A90 is a bit bigger. It also has a rich display. I will update my review more when I use it for a few days.

UPDATE: So I was only able to make phone calls with my Straight Talk SIM in this phone. I could not use my data no matter what I did. I switched carriers to Mint mobile and now everything works great. You won't get 5G on Mint but I get a solid 4G with LTE in some places. It works fantastic with this phone in case anyone wants to know. The phone sounds clear in phone calls. I have no problem sending and receiving SMS and MMS messages. The battery life is great. I use my phone moderately and by the end of the day I've only used about 35% to 40% of the battery.
The camera is a bit better than my A50. A few more options and more megapixels help. As with all of the A series Galaxy phones there is no wireless charging but the phone charges extremely quick using a fast charger.

It is a bit longer and a bit heavier that the A50. I much prefer it this way so I can feel the phone and get a better grip on it.
