Samsung a31

[Abhishhh]

Its been almost 15 months of the product launch, and still the company has not yet added the basic camera features like timelapse, slowmo & nightmode. Why this kind of discrimination @samsung? See even after charging 22,000/- rupees, when the company is not adding those basic camera features. Then seriously what's use of taking such disgusting product??? 

Literally there's not even 4k video shooting. 

This is seriously very disgusting !!!

I liked this reply from you. Why don't you post a blog on Google index page or gsmarena opinion page!! It would be easier for camera centric users.

BTW ur processor capability knowledge needs to be heard by everyone. How do u know all about capability of a processor?

Pls tell me the source of information, next time I won't fool myself buying a business centric phone instead of camera focused phone.

Actually, there is no need of doing that. There are several youtubers who are already doing it. A bit of research can help a lot with it, but thanks for your suggestions, will try. Also, its becoming harder because Samsung is pushing many features in newer devices, which were not present in older generations, so a post which makes sense today, might not make sense 6 months down the line.

If you ask me about processor knowledge, read articles and watch youtube videos, interact with other users on brand communities, I learnt it that way.

The answer is the same for your third point. If you want to buy a camera centric device, choose one, go to youtube and search about it, check whether it has the expected features or not, if it has, well and good, if doesn't, get another phone.

Thanks for reply. I searched but camera focused m31 was my priority . Youtubers and users complained of network and heating issues. So I wondered if I take photos/videos afterwards I can't upload or load social media faster with poor network reception. There's no point of buying m31 i concluded. Unfortunately a31 was in same budget range as m31 on April 12 after a31 price was slashed to 17000₹ in offer offline sale i got it at 16200, I thought it as good deal bcoz it was launched at 21k price and it was being sold at 16200.

I should've tested camera for slow motion ,pro and night mode features but offline sellers never make us try before buying.

April 12 2021? Or 2020? If 2021, why didn't you go for M31s or M51?

On April 12(2021) m31s was still offered at 18999₹ for 6/128 variant and m51 was selling at 21k. My budget max was 16500.

Recently flipkart offered m31s at 16000 in May 3-may 9 sale. But who will buy my a31 with its specs for no slowmo ,nightmode& pro modes ?

Which phones do u recommend for a heavy internet browsing,YouTube/ online video consumption and camera (0% gaming) as main priorities at present?

[Anikroyale]

You can go for any phone which has a good display for that work. Mention a price bracket and I can tell better.

Bro i need 2 group phones 7-10k and 10-15k as gaming is not necessary so battery&display with good performance means no lag in switching browser tabs or apps.

[Anikroyale]

7-10k group, go for F12, or something other than Samsung.

10-15k, just go for M31s.

And as to why pro mode wasn't unlocked, pro mode features need a lot of processing power, and I believe you know that.
