Samsung somehow thinks it's okay to charge $499 while delivering no tangible upgrades.
It is a half baked review, IMO. The author says that despite having 45 W charging, the phone takes 75 mins to charge. Samsung really slows down it’s charging speeds post 80%, so testing from 0 to 100 is not a good criterion at all.
Plus, he forgets to mention that Samsung skips on a microSD card for A56 which was present on A55. Though in Samsung’s favor, they are offering 6 OS upgrades and I doubt any other OEM except Google matches it.
Remember when it was a joke that the iPhone cost that much? “It’s $500, you have no choice of carrier, the battery doesn’t hold a charge, and the reception isn’t very…”

$500 for an A series is insane. You can get a refurbished S24 for $100 less with a way better processor.
