Hi Oscar, appreciate your reviews, I will wait till my contract has been completely paid up in Dec 2024 then wait till after Feb - March 2025 for the new release of Samsung Phones, i wanted the A55, but I will rather wait and see, if the "new" A56 (assuming that would be the next release), will be worth it, as you stated the price of the previous releases will drop, iPhones are just ridiculously expensive, especially if you don't have the budget to afford it, also very good advice all round about buying used phones, what to check for, I particularly would rather check reviews "like yours" and then make decision, ideally it is best to get/buy a new phone. once again, thanks :)

My nightmare about getting an old flagship Samsung is the screen because once those lines start showing up on the or screen burn coming out on it, believe me the whole would be useless because the cost of changing the screen is scary. So I'll rather stick to my Tecno camon 30s and co.

In kenya there are these loan phones called m-kopa or d-light once someone sells you the phone its finito for you because you didn't know its a loan phone and there are no ways of differentiating between a normal and a loan phone

I'm surprised nobody talks about this but I tried buying a used Infinix note 30 vip on FB market place but most of them are fake, but in the about it will still show Dimensity 8050 and other things correctly, how I found out is because they have no JBL branding and it's side mounted fingerprint with a large bezels, please Will it still work like the original?
