The A series has been my go-to for my past 2 phones so as long as they don't fuck with it, I'll probably stick with it.
YSK there are plenty of other fishes in the water.
People who recommend other devices usually don't take the UI into account.
That's the main reason why I put forward a suggestion. Used a S series phone for about a year. The OneUI is really bloated.
Its a lost cause, the new A line even in isolation was never "clean". With the 4G and 5G Versions often having very different specs and outlier phones like the A52s being better in every metric to both the A72 and A53. Not to mention that the A0 phones are always a mess with the Core, E and S variants.
A masterclass in terrible branding. Consumers are stupid. You need to clearly identify your product tiers.
