hey guys i am pratima from gadget bite and this is the samsung galaxy aNUMBER_TOKEN core the cheapest smartphone that i have laid my hands on in quite a long time and it's not that i am hesitant to test or use budget phones instead it's just that there aren't many brands actively catering to this category lately as you might know the entire electronics industry has been suffering from global chip shortage for some time now so since there aren't that many chips to work with smartphone brands are naturally prioritizing phones with a higher profit margin thereby completely neglecting the sub hundred dollar segment hence instead of releasing new budget phones these companies are salvaging whatever they have in stock and rebranding them under different packages as fresh launches take this NUMBER_TOKEN year old redmi NUMBER_TOKENa for instance it was recently succeeded by redmi NUMBER_TOKENa sport but the two are basically the same device and it's just not read me other brands like poco and samsung have been doing the same as well so how do you make cheap phones from scratch in NUMBER_TOKEN as it stands you will have to make some significant compromises the galaxy NUMBER_TOKEN here does this in the chipset department here samsung has used the unisock scNUMBER_TOKENa which is a three-year-old chipset built on a NUMBER_TOKEN nanometer process as a result we were quite skeptical of its performance standard running a quick geekbench test we found that it fell behind the helio gNUMBER_TOKEN thankfully samsung has shipped the aNUMBER_TOKEN core with android NUMBER_TOKEN go edition with one uiNUMBER_TOKEN on top instead of the standard android NUMBER_TOKEN best one ui which is way too taxing for a startup mode like this as a result it feels much smoother in day to day usage when compared to the redmi NUMBER_TOKENa that runs on full-fledged miui NUMBER_TOKEN. apps open a little quicker and its ram management is not as aggressive as that of miui either all of this combined i don't have many complaints regarding the performance of the galaxy NUMBER_TOKEN core it can do most of the lightweight tasks such as web browsing streaming youtube and attending online classes plus you can also enjoy some lightweight games such as clash of clans dr wolves and slytherio you can technically install and play games like free fire on this phone too but i will not recommend doing so since uh such apps tend to grow exponentially over time leaving you with degraded performance standards and lesser storage space okay now let's focus on the entertainment aspect of the galaxy NUMBER_TOKEN core on the front it sports a NUMBER_TOKEN inches lcd panel with hd plus resolution and i must say its overall brightness and viewing angles are actually pretty good for the price the colors look a little cooler but i didn't notice any unnatural hue here youtube videos appear a little soft when forcing them to NUMBER_TOKENp resolution but that is to be expected with hd screen likewise you will have no problem viewing pdfs or other documents on the screen in case you intend to buy this phone for attending online classes that's being said i wished its single speaker setup had a wider sound stage the audio quality here sounds congested which can be a problem when multiple people are talking on a voice call or zoom classes alright before moving forward with the video allow me to talk a little about today's sponsor
