Understand I dislike Samsung devices because of the bloat and their wanting to be Apple for Android, so I’m a harsh critic of Samsung.
I’m someone who HAMMERS a phone. Screen is rarely off. I run hard sync jobs (Resilio and Syncthing) all day long, hundreds of apps, multiple simultaneous actions, “watching” PiP stream while copying files to my home NAS, and navigating. My phone never gets a break.
Years ago the S4 was OK, but it ate battery for me (combination of screen tech and Android version), form factor was great but the power wasn’t yet there, plus Samsung bloat.
My current preferred device is a 2018 Essential Ph1 running Lineage, rooted, with some kernel tweaks that make it blazing fast while minimizing battery consumption as best as can, for an IPS screen.
When my last Ph1 died I switched to this A505. Honestly not a bad phone at all. It can’t quite keep up with my abuse, which means 98% of users would find it a fine device.
The author of this article is an idiot, hypocrite, or something else. He should go back to digging ditches, though he probably can’t do that right either.
