Some people are working hard on this platform to degrade Samsung and to dissuade potential buyers. They are promoting Chinese brands like Iqoo instead of Samsung for no reason. Please be aware of such deliberate degraders and do not fall for their trap. If you want to get an idea,ask genuine users,whom you can verify easily by going through their profile. These degraders whom I am talking about have fairly new accounts made ONLY for degrading. You can identify them easily.

Please watch/read some trusted reviews,get genuine feedback from actual users and use your rationality to arrive at a buying decision.

Nb: This is not to say that Samsung is free from issues (about which I have made multiple posts),but Samsung is still miles ahead of these Chinese brands.

Bro, ppl in India have a mindset of going for cheaper phones with many features. What they don't look at is at what cost they are getting those benefits or features. RealMe, Xiaomi, and many others except OnePlus have ads in OS through which they earn more money and keep earning until those devices are in use. Also data is sent to Chinese servers as per their govt. Policy. OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo all come under BBK electronics and their sub-brands too. Check out the link or Google with below heading.

Who has made your phone? The brands and sub-brands mean answer is complicated

Well there is no comparison of top tier samsung S series with the cheaper chinese brands, but Samsung do not do justice to A, F and M series, and generally if you are looking around that prices ranges then buying a samsung neither give you a brand value nor it is a great deal.

I bought A52s5g for 27k. That's a great deal and I absolutely adore this phone. Anyways even at 29k I would pick A52s anyday over similarly priced Chinese brands as camera and 3 years of OS update is superb at this price.

Similarly s20fe at 36 to 40k is a gem of a deal which no other chinese products can match.

So yes there are many products from samsung which are not vfm,but then got to choose wisely buy during offers.

Only today I saw that S20FE getting re-launched in Korea, in India too it's still in stock n selling good. I thought the news was fàke but it is real, only thing need to confirm is abt the OS upgrades 🤔

Yes I too thought that it's fàke. However if they relaunch it in India under 40k with 4 years of update,I will recommend it over s21fe.

Yes..you just have to be choosy about buying which products and during offers. For eg: I won't suggest anyone to buy A52s at 34k.
