OK Greg! You asked for it! I am just kidding of course! Not really ! No everything seems to be in working order. A little background if you don't mind.3 almost 4 years ago after a lifetime choosing Android over the (OTHER 1 Ha! Ha!) I have chosen the A series over the flagship s's mainly due to price then I stumbled across the A-9 (2018) Finally a phone that had enough ram and inside storage with a decent sized screen and at the time I believe better cameras not too sure butI liked it until a couple year later, A-9 still performing great and I bought it used for $90. The one plus n10-5G came out and honestly I was getting a little bored with Samsung OS systems. So n-10 performed just as well maybeva little better than the A series so I thought. Great one plus will just get better and better.well in my humble opinion, that never happened and I've been through two and on my way of a third n-10 while I still have and use that workhorse A-9 I picked up! The only downside being getting parts for it. Anyway so n-10 being out of the running and the OS system nit another different if at all from Samsung A's. So I went back and grabbed an A-71-5G. Great dependable phone just no excitement and zi don't download much to use 5G much. I had bought two one for me and one for my wife while the two almost teens chased after Fallen Apples. I'm a lifelong smart-ass and if Noone else appreciates my jokes, I still have fun with them. I know this is long but I hope there is a solution at the end. I have never asked for this help before. Your probably thinking I haven't asked you Either but I'm getting to that. Ok so gave n
My amA-71 to younger son going strong he still has it the other stared having battery issues so I order another battery but during that time they sent me the wrong battery. Not 5G like I ordered while I waited toget the battery the phone gave up its ghost. Prior to me finding you have a trade in / buy back program I just gave my phones to that green kiosk! So today I have a open line on My phone plan where wife's A-71 used to be cus she has a work phone but filling that spot is something I wish to do. No hurry. I then bought the A-51 which as you know had issues right off the bat so I took advantage of that and somewhere that compared theA-52 to the I think S-21? At the time it was flagship and article said that the A52 -5G was not that far from the flagship.so I bought one, only have had it a short time and yeah it works, does what I ask it to do so far no ram or storage problems but I've already have a wandering eye fir either the A-53-5G which doesn't seem much different then the ones I've had and I think 70 series might have what I'm looking for. Problem is I'm not sure what that is.? Reminder the excitement factor I spoke about? Yea!!!!! I wish Google could compete but no way. If Oneplus or another Chinese co. Would step up,? I also saw aline of Russian phones that peeked my I interest but of course are not available here. Ok Greg we are at the end my us can you find or put me in touch with someone who can find me that IT! Phone that I am looking for but with the Backmarket price of course. And earlier I mentioned a replacement for wife's A-71-5G she currently uses a S-20 or 21 Fe-5G from work. I must give and ice my finger! Thanks for your time and effort if there us any in the future! Lol! My amusement! Remember ! Ok take care Rob
